Digital invitation for a church wedding: the noon Mass

The Mass is at twelve. The drinks are at two, twenty minutes up the road, and the coach pulls away from the church porch at half past one whether your cousin from Bilbao is on it or not. Nearly every question you'll get between now and the day sits in that gap: which church, what time, where do we park, do we go straight to the venue. A digital invitation answers all of them in one link. You pick a design from the collection, fill in the fields and send it today.

A printed card can't keep up. It says twelve o'clock and the name of the church, and then it's finished: if the priest moves the Mass to half past, you're reprinting. A digital invitation keeps the time in its own field, so the change takes a minute and the link already sitting in everyone's phone shows the new version.

A digital invitation handles the gap between the Mass and the drinks

Two places, two times, one link. The church and the venue sit on the same screen: the guest driving in from out of town opens the link, checks the map and decides whether to head for the porch or straight to the coach. Confirmations come back inside the same invitation, in one ordered list, so nobody is counting "yes, we're coming" in a forty-message thread. Guests answer on their phone and install nothing. The form questions are yours to set, so you ask what you actually need.

• The Mass time and the drinks time, each in its own editable field instead of buried in a paragraph.
• The church map and the venue map, opened on a phone without leaving the link.
• The dress code written as it actually is: "light suit, the church has no air conditioning."
• An RSVP form with the deadline spelled out in the last scene.

Church wedding invitations: the scenes that order the day

The invitation runs as a chain of scenes, one after another: a threshold, the promises, a long dinner, the last dance. Each scene takes your own words and your own photos — up to six in total, cover included — and they frame themselves, so you're not cropping anything at midnight. The music is chosen in the same editor, so the link opens with the tune already playing.

You mark the cover photo and you can swap it later. If the photoshoot lands three weeks after you've sent the link, you change the image and nothing else moves. Time, place, map, dress code, the line on the cover: same link before and after. The site runs in seven languages and the invitation content is set per language, so the aunt from Bordeaux reads hers in French.

Send the link once. Everything after that — the Mass time, the map, the dress code — you change in the editor, and nobody has to be told twice.

How much is a digital invitation for a church wedding?

€29.99, paid once. No subscription, no charge per guest, no reprint bill when the plan shifts. And you can try it before paying: in trial mode you edit the cover for free, and buying unlocks the rest of the scenes.

What digital invitations don't do

They don't print or post anything. If your grandmother wants a copy for the fridge door, the sensible mix is a link for everyone plus a handful of printed copies for the people who'll keep them. And your guests do need a phone, a tablet or a laptop with a connection — if an uncle is still on a keypad phone, that's a phone call, not a link.

If your day starts with a noon Mass and ends with a last dance, the link takes the envelope out of the equation and the "where was it again?" out of the family group chat. Build the cover now, keep the Mass time in its own field, publish when the details are settled.
