What a wedding RSVP website does
A wedding RSVP website is one web page that does the job of the invitation, the information card and the reply card together. You send a link by text, WhatsApp or email. Guests open it, read everything they need, and reply on the spot.
The difference from a paper RSVP is what comes back. A card gives you a tick and a name, often weeks later. Here every reply arrives the moment it is sent, with the meal choice, the dietary note, the plus-one's name and the answers to anything else you asked. There is no spreadsheet to update because the spreadsheet updates itself.
How it works
- Fill in a form, not a page builder. Your names, the date, the venue, the timings, the dress code, the gift note, where to stay. Add a photo if you have one. The design takes care of the layout.
- Open it on your phone. Your invitation lives at an address like amira-and-daniel.invalia.io, or on a domain you already own. Check it as often as you like before you pay anything.
- Send one link, or one per household. Every household can have its own link with their names already on it, so a guest sees "Dear Priya and Tom" and the reply form only asks about Priya and Tom.
What your guests see
- The invitation itself. Your names, the date, the place, and the wording you chose, in a design that looks made rather than built.
- The order of the day. Ceremony, drinks, the wedding breakfast, first dance, carriages. Each with its time.
- The venue with a map. One tap for directions.
- Dress code, gifts and where to stay. With links to your gift list or honeymoon fund and the hotels you have held rooms at.
- Your own questions and answers. Children, parking, the shuttle bus, the hashtag.
- The reply form. Yes or no, a meal choice per person, dietary needs, and anything else you want to ask.
Guests do not need an app or an account. If a guest opens the link on a laptop it works just as well.
Replies that come back complete
The reply form is yours to shape. Ask for a meal choice per guest, a dietary note, a song request, whether they need the coach, or nothing more than yes or no. Set a reply-by date and the page shows it.
Every reply lands in your dashboard as it happens. You see who has said yes, who has said no, who has not replied yet, and the full guest list with every answer in one place. Export it as a spreadsheet for the caterer or the table plan whenever you like.
Guests can change their mind by opening their link again, so a late dietary note does not mean a phone call.
Day guests and evening guests
Most weddings have two lists. Keep both in one guest list, tag each household "day" or "evening", and give every household its own link with a personal note at the top: "Join us from 7pm for the party" for the evening guests, the full welcome for the day guests. When you export the replies, the tags come with them, so the caterer gets the day numbers and the venue gets the evening ones.
Designs made for weddings
Four designs, each one a different mood, and all of them show the same details, so you can change your mind later without retyping anything.
- Sacred Garden for a ceremonial, richly coloured invitation.
- Quiet for a modern, spare page where the words and a single photo carry it.
- Editorial for couples with a photographer and a full-height cover photograph.
- Vogue for a magazine cover built around one picture, with slow, cinematic motion.
Any of them takes your colour. Pick one now, send it, and switch if you change your mind.
What it costs
One payment of £40, VAT included, for any number of guests, and the site stays live for a year from the day you pay. That is the launch offer; the usual price is £59. There is nothing to pay until you are happy with it: build it, open it on your phone, show your mum, then pay when you are ready to send.
For comparison, Bridebook's 2026 guide puts a full set of printed wedding stationery at about £378 on average, with printed invitations alone at roughly £1 to £5 each before postage. See how we compare with Paperless Post, Greenvelope, Joy, Zola and the rest, including where they win.
Your own web address
Your invitation lives at yourname.invalia.io out of the box. If you have bought a domain for the wedding, connect it from the dashboard with step-by-step instructions, at no extra cost.
Good questions
- Do guests need an app or an account to RSVP?
- No. Guests open the link you send, see their names already filled in, and reply from their phone in under a minute. Nothing to download and nothing to sign up for.
- When should we send a wedding RSVP website?
- Send the link when you would have posted invitations, usually three to four months before the wedding, and set the reply-by date four to six weeks before the day. Our guide on RSVP deadlines walks through the timeline.
- Can guests with a plus-one add their partner?
- Yes, if you allow it. Each household has a maximum number of guests you set. Leave room for one more and the guest can add their partner’s name when they reply; set it to exactly the people named and they cannot.
- Can we use our own domain?
- Yes. Connect a domain you already own from the dashboard, with step-by-step DNS instructions. Otherwise your invitation lives at yourname.invalia.io.
- Can a guest change their reply?
- Yes. They open their link again and update it. You see the change straight away, so a late dietary note does not need a phone call.
- Can my partner or a friend help build it?
- Yes. Add them as an editor and they can work on it with you from their own account.
- Is it really one price for any number of guests?
- Yes. £40 one-off (the launch offer, usually £59) covers any guest list, with the invitation live for a year from payment.
