Language & audience
Bilingual Arabic and English digital invitations with native RTL design
When half your guests read Arabic and half read English, the invitation has to work in both — without one language looking like an afterthought. We set Arabic right-to-left the way it should be read, and pair it with English that keeps the same dates, names and venue.
Big Story builds دعوات إلكترونية بالعربي والإنجليزي as a single, coordinated design rather than two disconnected cards. Arabic typography is treated as the primary script — correct shaping, correct alignment — and English sits with it as a true equal.

Two languages, one set of facts
The most common bilingual mistake is a date or venue that differs between the Arabic and English versions. We proofread both against a single brief so the day, time and place always match.
Right-to-left, done properly
Arabic is not English typed backwards. Letters connect, numerals and punctuation sit correctly, and the eye moves from the right. Our layouts are built RTL-first so the Arabic never looks stretched or broken.
Original demo samples
Every design below is an original Big Story demo, clearly labelled نموذج. We swap in your names, date, venue, wording, language, colours and motion for your order.
Browse the full demo gallery to see our eight styles, then we tailor one to your occasion.
Turnaround & revisions
Once we have your names, date, venue and preferred wording, a static design is typically ready to review within 2–3 working days; an animated invitation within 4–6 working days. Rush timing is possible depending on the week — ask before you book a send date.
The Static Social Suite includes two revision rounds; the Motion + RSVP Suite includes three. Further changes are quoted per round so the scope stays clear.
Frequently asked questions
Bilingual Arabic and English digital invitations with native RTL design
Do Arabic invitations use a true right-to-left layout?
Yes. Every Arabic layout is built right-to-left with correct letter shaping and alignment, not an English template with Arabic dropped in.
Can guests switch between Arabic and English?
We deliver both language versions as separate files, and can also place both languages on one card. Which approach fits depends on your guest list.
Will dates, names and venue details match in both languages?
Always. We proofread both versions against one brief so nothing drifts between languages.
