1st Birthday Invitations—Designed and Printed in Ireland
Big Celebrations for Your Little One (And an Excuse for Cake)
Your baby’s turning ONE — and if that’s not a good enough reason to throw a party, we don’t know what is.
At Design Gaff, we print beautiful 1st birthday invitations that make it official — you’re hosting the cutest party of the year.
Whether you’re keeping it small and cosy at home, or throwing a bash that’ll be talked about till their 18th, a proper invitation sets the tone (and gets the grandparents extra excited).
And if you want help making it look even more adorable?
We design invitations too! (Warning: extreme cuteness levels ahead.)
Why You’ll Love 1st Birthday Invitations from Design Gaff
Gorgeous Heavy Cardstock
We print on lovely thick 350gsm premium cardstock — sturdy, smooth, and proper quality.
(You’re not handing out floppy bits of paper for this milestone!)
Full Colour, Picture-Perfect Printing
We print using high-end presses to make sure every little detail — from your photo to the balloons and bunting — looks bright, sharp, and beautiful.
Handy A6 Size
Each invitation is a perfect A6 size (105mm x 148mm) — ideal for popping into envelopes, handing out, or posting without needing an engineering degree to fold them.
Envelopes Included (Because We Think of These Things)
Every invitation order comes with smart matching envelopes — so you’re ready to send them out without any last-minute scrambling.
Printed Here in Ireland
All our invitations are designed, printed, and packed in our Monaghan studio — quick turnaround, real people, and plenty of love put into every order.
What’s in it for You?
✅ Set the Tone for a Special Day — A lovely invite makes everything feel more exciting and official.
✅ Delight Friends and Family — Grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins will love getting a proper invite to pop on the fridge.
✅ Perfect for Keepsakes — These are the ones you’ll want to save for the memory box (and to embarrass them later).
✅ Personalised with Care — We create a custom invitation with your child’s name, photo, event details, and a sprinkle of extra magic.
And if you’re ordering for someone else (a sneaky surprise maybe?), we offer plain packaging too — no giveaways before the big reveal.

Why a Proper Invite Still Matters
Sure, you could text everyone.
You could set up a WhatsApp group (and lose track after five minutes).
But a proper printed invitation? That’s special.
It says, “We’ve made the effort — and it’s going to be brilliant.”
It gives people something to stick on the fridge, show off, and keep in the family album for years.
Plus, let’s be honest: there’s something magical about seeing your little one’s name on a beautifully printed invite.
It just hits differently.
