How to create an invitation

HOW TO CREATE YOUR INVITATION:  

Firstly, watch this short Video Tutorial, then return to this page for written details.

 

Once you have logged in and loaded your function on the function database, you can prepare your invitation to send:

      Plain Messages:

If you plan to send a plain e-mail message, do the following:

  • Open a new plain message in your e-mail program.
  • Copy the link provided when you activated your function and paste it in your e-mail body.

NB! - Don't use this link, it's only an example.  Your function will have a unique number at the end.

  • Now send the message with the personal invitation details to your guests. 
  • They can then click on the link (or copy and paste it in their internet browser if it's not hyperlinked) and complete their RSVP details.
  • When you log in to your account, you will see all your functions, as well as the guest's RSVP.

    HTML Messages:

To give your invitation a professional look, you can create a .jpg invitation and then add it to a HTML e-mail message.

  • Create your invitation in your favorite photo editor or graphic design program. Make sure the picture is not to large.  This will avoid long download time. Go  for a max. of 8050 px in width. Feel free to contact us for a quote to create an invitation for you.
  • Remember to add the RSVP date and all details about the function
  • Also add a button or text "Click here to RSVP Online".
  • Open a new HTML e-mail message.
  • Now choose insert / picture from the menu and paste the supplied link for your function in the URL.
  • Send the e-mail to yourself to check if it comes back correctly and click the link to ensure it opens the correct link and function details.
  • Now send the invitation to all your guests.. 

Tip:  If people reply directly to you by phone or other way, use the link provided to load their RSVP details.  This way you'll have all the info in one place.
