Digital Wedding Invitations

An InviteVia digital wedding invitation is a web page for one wedding. It carries the hosts' names, the date and the time, the venue with a map pin, the dress code and the order of the day, and it opens in a guest's browser when they tap the link you send. Nobody creates an account or installs anything to read it or to reply.

You build it in the builder rather than in a design tool: choose a layout, type in the details, publish it to get a short link, and follow the replies on a dashboard — who is coming, how many plus-ones they are bringing, and the dietary notes a caterer will ask for. You can use it as the main invitation or alongside a small printed run, and unlike print, an online invitation can be corrected after it has been sent.

What your invitation holds

The builder asks for the details the occasion needs, and leaves out whatever you leave empty:

  • Host names and an event title, so the page reads “Alex & Sarah” instead of a generic heading.
  • Date, start and end time and the timezone, so a guest abroad sees the right hour.
  • Venue name and address, with a pin you can drop on the map for directions in Google Maps or Waze.
  • A short description, the dress code, and an order-of-the-day schedule for the ceremony and the reception.
  • An optional cover image, and background music that plays while the page is open on Premium.

Wording, dress code and the order of the day

The structure decides most of the wording: the names sit above the date, the venue follows, and the reply buttons come last. What you write yourself is the description, the dress code and any note about arriving early for the ceremony.

If you are unsure how formal to be, the guides here cover wedding invitation wording examples and what to include on a wedding invitation, including wording for a ceremony followed by a reception.

Collecting wedding RSVPs online

The RSVP step decides what guests are asked: whether they can bring a plus-one, whether you want dietary preferences, a note to the two of you, or a song request for the reception. Only the guest's name is required — everything else is optional, and the form takes a moment to complete on a phone.

Replies land on the RSVP tracker as they arrive, with attending, declined, plus-ones and dietary notes on one list, and the whole list exports as a CSV when the venue or the caterer asks for numbers. The free plan accepts 25 responses and Premium removes the limit. RSVPs close once the wedding date has passed.

Choosing a template

Nine templates ship with InviteVia, and the picker shows only the ones drawn for a wedding. Because the layout is generated from the text you type, the builder doubles as a wedding invitation maker: you add the ceremony and reception details and the template arranges them.

Elegant Wedding is a free serif layout with a monogram, and Floral is the same idea in soft watercolour — both are included in the free plan. On Premium, Luxury sets the same details in dark metallics, Romantic in deep blush, and Editorial reads like a printed programme. The template gallery shows all of them side by side.

Sending the invitation to your guests

Publishing gives you one short link, and the wording of that link can be regenerated before you send it. Sending wedding invitations online means one address for everyone: the same link works in a WhatsApp message, an email, a family group chat or an Instagram story.

That is the practical difference from a card or a picture of a card. When the ceremony time moves or the address changes, you edit the invitation instead of reprinting it or sending a correction to a guest list you have to reconstruct. Guests can add the date to Google Calendar and open directions from the page itself.

Create your invitation

Pick a layout, add the ceremony and reception details, and share one link. Guests reply with a tap — no accounts, no downloads.
