Digital invitation price: golden wedding mass and banquet

Twelve o'clock at the church, two at the restaurant, sixty people to tell. The date is fixed, the priest has checked his diary, the room is held. What nobody writes into the budget is the work of getting two addresses and two times to sixty people. A digital invitation carries both, and you can open the catalogue, pick a design and send it the same afternoon.

The money still goes in a set order: menu and room first, the announcement last. Split those lines before you compare anything, and the announcement stops looking like the expensive part.

How much does a digital invitation for a golden wedding cost?

Answer that once the budget is in three parts: the church and the flowers, the restaurant per head, and everything that goes with telling people and chasing replies. The first two are the heavy ones. The third is the one people forget until the week before. Ask the restaurant for the price per person with bread, drinks, cake and service included. A golden wedding menu gets trimmed by taking out courses, not grandchildren.

• Line one: church, flowers, and whatever the priest's diary allows that morning.
• Line two: restaurant price per head, in writing, with bread, drinks, cake and service included.
• Line three: the time and phone calls it takes to tell sixty people and collect the replies.
• A separate note: how many guests sleep in a hotel. If twelve of your sixty come from out of town, that number can move the date before the priest does.

Two events, one digital invitation: mass at twelve, banquet at two

The church and the restaurant are different places at different times, and guests will mix them up. A digital invitation chains both scenes on one page: the mass at twelve, the cocktails at two, the address with a map link. Nobody installs an app. Your grandchildren abroad open the link on their phones and confirm from there.

Then comes the part that costs nothing on paper and a lot in real life. Calls to explain where the restaurant is. Messages asking what time it was. The final round the week before. With a link, confirmations land inside the invitation in an ordered list, and you configure the RSVP questions yourself. Change the dress code, the wording or the venue and the link stays the same: guests see the updated version, and you re-send nothing.

One link holds the mass at twelve and the banquet at two, and it is the same link after every change.

What the best digital invitations for a golden wedding do not do

They do not collect menus, allergies or cots, and they should not. That is a conversation with the restaurant and with the family, not a field in a form. They do not print or post anything either. If someone wants a copy for a drawer, print a few for the couple and send the link to everyone else.
