How to Make a Digital Wedding Invitation (Step by Step)

To make a digital wedding invitation: choose a design, add your names, date and events, set up your RSVP, preview it on your phone, then send each guest the link. With a ready-made design it takes about 15 minutes. Here's each step, with what to have ready before you start.

What do you need before you start?

Have ready	Why
Names as you want them shown	The first thing guests see
Date, times and venues (with addresses)	Each event gets a map link
RSVP deadline and meal choices	So replies come back complete
A photo of the two of you	Optional, but guests love it
Your guest list (names and phone numbers)	For personal links and sending

What are the steps?

1. Choose a design that matches your wedding — garden, black-tie, destination, Indian or fusion — and watch it open on your phone.
2. Add your names, the hosting line and the occasion (wedding, engagement, reception or save the date).
3. Build the schedule: each event with its date, time and venue — ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and any welcome drinks or brunch.
4. Add guest information: dress code, a children note, travel and hotels, gifts, and a short story or photo.
5. Set up RSVPs: a reply-by date and meal choices if you're serving a plated dinner.
6. Preview it on your phone: open it, tap through, and send yourself a test RSVP.
7. Send it: a short personal message with the link to each household — see WhatsApp invitation messages.

Short on time? Steps 2 and 3 can be one message: tap “Create with AI” in the corner of any PixerInvite page (or “Let AI fill this in” in any design), type or say your names, date, events and venues, and AI fills them in for you — see what to tell AI for a wedding invitation.

What should the wording say?

Who's hosting, your names, the date, time and venue, and how to reply — then any extras. For lines you can copy, see our wedding invitation wording examples.

What mistakes should you avoid?

• Sending one link to a big group chat — personal messages get more replies.
• Forgetting a reply-by date — without one, RSVPs drift in until the week before.
• Not testing on a phone — most guests will open it there.
• Typing addresses without checking the map pin — a wrong pin sends guests to the wrong place.
