Digital Invitation Cost for a Gala Dinner for 90

Ninety names on the seating list. Dinner at 20:30, and the room only opens at 21:15. Somewhere between the venue deposit and the menu tasting you type the same question into a search bar: how much does a digital invitation cost for a gala dinner for 90 guests? Here it is — 29,99 EUR, paid once. You pick a design from the catalogue, try the cover for free and send the link the same day.

Paper works the other way round: it charges per unit. Ninety cards, ninety envelopes, stamps, a colour proof, and a second print run if the cocktails move by forty minutes. Digital invitations charge once per event, and the guest count is not a line on the invoice.

Digital invitation for a gala dinner: what the 29,99 EUR covers

One price, closed. It doesn't go up with the guest list and there's no monthly fee: you buy the invitation and it stays yours. Buying unlocks every scene, and you edit them in the browser editor with a preview that updates as you type. Nothing to install, nothing to download, no app for your guests either — they open a link.

• 29,99 EUR once, for the whole invitation. Ninety guests or forty, the same price.
• One field per piece of text: label, names, date, sentence and place, with a character counter so a long surname doesn't break onto two lines.
• Up to six of your own photos, framed automatically, and any of them can be swapped after you publish.
• RSVP questions you write yourself, answered inside the invitation instead of across ninety separate chats.

How much does a digital invitation cost for 90 guests next to paper

Do the paper sum in your head: ninety cards, ninety envelopes, the stamps, the proof that comes back with the wrong postcode. Then the change. A gala is the kind of evening that gets adjusted until the last week — the receiving line pushed back, the address corrected to the right entrance of the building, the dress code softened from black tie to cocktail.

This is where a link behaves differently. You edit the time field after the invitations are out and the link stays the same. Guests who open it that evening read the current version. No second envelope lands in anyone's hallway, and nobody shows up at 20:30 for a cocktail that now starts at 21:00. Change the map, the dress code or the line on the cover and there's still nothing to resend.

You pay once for the invitation, not once per guest — and the version your guests open is always the last one you edited.

What a gala dinner looks like inside the invitation

The invitation is a small site of chained scenes: a limewashed threshold for arrivals, a long table for the seating, a last dance to close the night. Each scene takes your own text and your own photos — the empty room before setup, candles already lit, the china in detail. You choose which photo is the cover. The site runs in seven languages and the invitation content can be set per language, which helps when half the list reads in English and the other half doesn't. Confirmations arrive in one ordered list; you're not copying names from a chat into a spreadsheet at midnight.

Where paper still wins

If someone in your family frames invitations, print theirs. The sensible split is a link for all ninety and a handful of printed copies for the people who keep them. Everyone else needs a phone, tablet or laptop with a connection — that's the honest limit of anything digital. For the one guest who never opens links, print his copy and call him.

A digital invitation from Send The Joy costs 29,99 EUR, reaches all ninety without a stamp and lets you fix the hour the night before. Try a design free — the cover is editable before you pay — and publish once the date is locked.
