It’s 11pm and you have a wedding invitation video saved on your phone. The clip is lovely. Then you open WhatsApp and find a thread of 'we’ll be there', 'maybe', and a cousin asking whether dinner is at the same place as the ceremony. Digital invitation gives you one link with the details and a button to reply. You can choose a design from the catalog, try the cover for free, and send it today.
The video is a mood. The invitation is the guest list. That is the cleanest way to decide which one you need before you pay for either.
A wedding invitation video looks lovely; a digital invitation gets replies
A wedding invitation video asks for two quiet minutes. It works as a teaser, a memory, something to drop into the family group. But it is a closed file: there is no field for a name, no place to say 'two of us', no list you can open the next morning. The digital invitation is a web page for your event, with linked scenes for the ceremony, dinner and last dance. All of it lives behind one link. Guests open it in a browser, with no app to install. The page is available in seven languages, and you can set the invitation content per language for relatives coming from abroad.
- One link holds the welcome, the ceremony time, the dinner and the dress code. No attachments to chase.
- Guests open it on a phone, tablet or computer. No app, no download.
- RSVPs arrive inside the invitation, in an ordered list, with the questions you set.
- Edit the time, place or wording after sending; the link stays the same, so nobody gets a second version.
Digital invitation vs wedding invitation video: cost and what you get
A video is usually booked as separate work and arrives as a finished file. If the ceremony moves from 5pm to 6pm, you go back to the edit and send it out again. A Digital invitation costs 29.99 EUR per invitation, one payment, no subscription. That covers the page, the scenes, the music, up to six of your own photos and the RSVP questions. If you are searching 'how much does a digital wedding invitation cost', the answer here is the full price, not a starting price. You can test the cover before paying: in trial mode you edit the cover, and when you buy, all the scenes unlock.
If you want the video as a keepsake, use it with the invitation rather than instead of it: send the link to everyone and keep the clip for the toast or for the grandparents. If you are weighing alternatives to paper wedding invitations, print a few copies for the people who will keep them, and let everyone else confirm from their phone. What does not work is sending only a video and hoping for replies. Without a form, you rebuild the guest list by hand the week before.

A video can set the tone. A digital invitation collects the answers.
Digital invitations keep every RSVP in one place
With a video, replies come back as messages mixed with voice notes and 'count us in +2' that nobody can decode. Digital invitations keep the yes in the same place: inside the invitation, in an ordered list, with the questions you set. If the map, time or dress code changes, the link stays the same and guests see the current version.
