Digital invitation for a Halloween family marquee meal

The marquee went up in the field behind the house on Saturday. The pumpkins are lined along the front step, the string lights are up, and your aunt has already asked twice what time you're eating. Somewhere between the third phone call and the cousins' group chat, you notice nobody has actually been invited yet. A digital invitation sorts that out in an afternoon: you choose a design from the catalogue, type in your own names, date and place, and send the link the same day.

One link does the whole round: the cousins' WhatsApp group, the uncles' group, and the call to your grandmother who asks the time three times. Here is what you pay for, what you don't, and how much a digital invitation for a Halloween family meal in a marquee actually costs.

What the 29,99 EUR digital invitation includes

It's 29,99 EUR per invitation, paid once. No monthly subscription, nothing to renew next October when the pumpkins come out again. What you buy is a page of your own for the event, and everyone you invite opens it from the same link.

• A web page with its own link, not a PDF that gets buried in the chat by Tuesday.
• A single payment, with no subscription and no renewal next year.
• Editing after you've sent it: change the time, the place or the dress code and the link stays exactly the same.
• Confirmations that arrive inside the invitation, in one ordered list, with the RSVP questions you set up yourself.

How much does a digital Halloween invitation cost for a family meal in a marquee?

A flat 29,99 EUR, whether the link goes to twelve people or forty. Thirty cousins and three grandparents open the same page, at their own pace, on whatever screen is closest. The invitation can be set up in Spanish, Catalan, English, French, Italian, Portuguese or German, which helps when the cousin from Hamburg is flying in for the weekend. Guests don't install anything and don't create an account: they tap the link and reply.

Send it once, in the group chat or as a QR code printed and stuck to the marquee pole, and let people come back to it when they remember. One practical note for a party in a field: mention in your message that opening the invitation needs a phone, tablet or laptop with a connection, because the page lives online, not on paper.

Pay once for the link, not for the envelopes: the invitation is the page everyone opens, and it stays open all evening.

The best digital invitations for a marquee dinner are the ones you can still edit

Things move in a field. The tent gets wet, the roast takes an hour longer, someone finds a better spot for the long table. Because the invitation is 100% digital, you edit the hour, the map or the sentence about wellies and the guests see the updated version, with no reprint and no second round of messages. If your grandmother wants something to hold, the sensible combination is the link for everyone and a handful of printed copies for the people who'll keep one.

Budget order for the week: first the link that reaches all forty guests, then the candles, the dark linen and the carved pumpkin by the gate. Before you pay, you can try the cover for free in the editor and only unlock the full scenes when you buy.
