An EventCreate alternative, and when EventCreate's free plan is the better choice

EventCreate is a general event-website builder with a genuinely free plan: one event, up to fifty attendees, free for as long as you like. For a small shower that should cost nothing, it is hard to beat. This site is narrower — four baby occasions, one address that carries you through all of them — and it charges to publish.

Prices, side by side

EventCreate’s prices read from EventCreate's own pricing page in September 2026. If they have changed since, theirs is the page to believe.

Where EventCreate is genuinely better

The free plan really publishes. One event for up to fifty attendees, free forever. Nothing here can put a page live for free; for a small shower on no budget, EventCreate is the better answer.
It handles any kind of event, including ticketed ones, with plans that grow into teams and businesses. This site does four occasions, all of them about a baby.
Cheap paid plans. From $5 a month if you outgrow the free one.

Where this one fits instead

Made for this one journey. The page that collects replies for the reveal becomes the birth announcement and then the first birthday invitation, keeping the design, the photographs, the messages and the guest list.
The guessing and the reveal are the event. Guests pick pink or blue as they reply, a tally builds, the answer is withheld on the server until you unlock it, and a reveal plays for everybody who opens the link for a week.
One payment rather than a plan. Nothing renews and nothing needs cancelling.
Fourteen designs drawn for this, each with its own cover that opens the invitation.

Questions

Is EventCreate free?

Its free plan is free forever for one event with up to fifty attendees, according to its own pricing page. Paid plans start at $5 a month.

Which should I use for a small baby shower?

If it should cost nothing and fifty guests is enough, EventCreate's free plan. If you want the same page to carry on as the birth announcement and the first birthday, that is what this one is for.

Can EventCreate do a gender reveal?

It can host an event page for one. What is built in here and not there is the guessing, the running tally, the answer held back until you unlock it, and the reveal that plays for everybody afterwards.

What you would be making

A gender reveal website, a baby shower page, a birth announcement or a first birthday invitation — in one of fourteen designs, at one address that carries all four.
