The house

Six things you can commission, priced one by one. A katb el-ketab and a wedding are two occasions, so they are two sites — two is 120,000, three is 180,000. Prices are what they are; we do not discount, and we do not run a cheaper line.

Add to any site

Each of these is a real section of the site, and each is genuinely optional — a katb el-ketab often wants the scene and no story, and a wedding often wants the opposite.

  • RSVP and guest list

    per event

    Kept by household the way Egyptian lists actually work. A private link per family, sent and chased on WhatsApp, with meal and transport if you need them — and a list you can hand your planner as a spreadsheet.

    24,000EGP

  • An illustrated scene

    per event

    Your actual venue drawn by hand — the lagoon, the garden, the hall — with the two of you in it. This is the piece nobody can generate, and the one guests screenshot.

    36,000EGP

  • Your story, told

    The chapters — how you met, the Fatiha, the road to the night — written with you and laid out as a scroll, not a paragraph. Written once and it carries across every event site.

    16,000EGP

  • Things that answer back

    per event

    The layer that makes people stay: tap a character and it speaks, open the ring box, honk the bike. Built around one moment that belongs to you specifically.

    20,000EGP

  • Music, cleared

    A track chosen or composed for the piece and licensed properly, so the invitation is not carrying somebody else’s copyright to four hundred phones.

    14,000EGP


What can change the price

Published, because a rider you only meet on an invoice is a surprise rather than a term. These apply on top of the piece, and we say so before you commit to anything.

  • Additional visual round

    One is included. Wording you can change yourself, forever, at no cost.

    6,000 EGP

  • Rush, under fourteen days

    Subject to a slot being free.

Invoiced to the planner at net, who bills the couple our published price. A couple never sees two prices for one thing.
