Follow the Birthday Trail
Follow the trail, uncover the birthday surprise — then collect RSVPs and organize your wishlist in one place.
What Is Follow the Birthday Trail?
Follow the Birthday Trail is an interactive birthday announcement that guides guests along a playful trail filled with clues. Each step moves them closer to the final reveal — uncovering who the birthday celebration is for in a fun, memorable way.
Once the reveal is complete, guests flow directly into the RSVP experience, where they can confirm attendance and select items from your wishlist — all within the same journey.
Every step leads to the celebration.
