Questions about Nocturne Lake Estate

Can I change the colors of Nocturne Lake Estate?

No. The artwork, colors and fonts stay as designed, because the envelope, cards and frames are painted to match. You change the content: names, details, photos and questions. See all designs to compare palettes.

How many photos can I add?

5: a portrait on the invitation card, 3 photos for Our Story and one of the venue. You crop each one to its frame in the panel, on your phone. Our Story can be switched off if you prefer fewer photos.

Does it work without photos?

Yes. Until you add your own, each photo spot shows a soft, neutral image made from the design's artwork, never a sample couple. The "Your photo here" label is only visible to you in preview, not to guests.

Is there a matching save the date?

Not yet. You can share your website link early, as a digital save the date, and add the full details later: guests always see the latest version. Read about timing.
