Two locations, one invitation. How to set up the ceremony and the dinner so no one shows up at the wrong place at the wrong time.

When you're planning wedding invitations for ceremony and dinner, two addresses don't fit in a single WhatsApp. You send one message: the ceremony at 12:00 at a stone church in Sant Cugat, the dinner at 20:30 in the Eixample. If you only send the dinner address, someone will turn up at the church at eight in the evening to a locked door. Or they'll go straight to the restaurant and miss the vows.

A single link can hold both scenes. Each one gets its own time, its own map and its own place on the same invitation, so no one has to dig through a second message to find out where to park.

With one link, the ceremony and the dinner live side by side. You set up a scene for the ceremony threshold and another for the long dinner. Each has its own label, date, phrase and place. The map sits in the same place where guests confirm their attendance. So the answer to 'where is it?' is always one tap away, not buried in a chat.

  • Exact time of the ceremony and exact time dinner starts, each in its own scene.
  • The address of each location with its map, for drivers and for those taking a taxi.
  • A short label per leg: 'Stone threshold' for the ceremony and 'Long dinner' for the banquet.
  • The dress code, especially if day and night call for different outfits.

Time, dress code and the gap between 'I do' and dinner

Each scene has its own fields for label, date, phrase and place, so the aperitif time doesn't get mixed up with the banquet. The dress code is read before opening the wardrobe, not after asking in the cousins' WhatsApp group. If the link is the same for everyone, grandma and the best man read exactly the same information. No versions in between.

Between the 'I do' and dinner there's a gap. One scene for the promise arch, another for the long table: the guest understands there's a transfer and how much time they have to change their shoes. Writing 'to follow' without a time is what fills your phone with messages asking if there's an aperitif in between. The scenes are chained and each one takes its own texts and photos. Photos frame themselves, no manual cropping. You can add up to six of your own photos, choose which one is the cover and swap any of them later.

Who comes to the ceremony and who stays for dinner

The RSVP form questions are configurable: for example, if the person attends the ceremony, the dinner or both. Confirmations arrive inside the same invitation, in an ordered list. No chasing answers on WhatsApp one by one. The link is shared by message, email or QR. The guest replies from their phone in any browser and doesn't install any app. If the time changes, you edit the scene and the link stays the same. No reprinting or resending envelopes. Adjusting the place, the map, the dress code or the cover phrase doesn't force you to notify anyone separately: guests see the updated version. You can try the cover for free in test mode and unlock all scenes when you buy the invitation for 29.99 EUR, one-time payment. Open the editor, try the cover for free and see how your ceremony and dinner look on the same page. When you're ready, publish with one button and confirmations start arriving in order.
