The whole way

Once the invitation is ready, there are three more steps: Guests, Send and Replies.

Guests

Add the people you want to invite, with a first name and an email. Got a list? Use Paste several at once: one guest per line, with an email on each line. If you have held a party with Invity before, you can bring in previous guests.

Good to knowNothing is sent yet. That only happens when you press Send in the next step.

Send

One last look before you send: you see the invitation and the email and choose who gets it. The first 5 invitations are free, so you can try Invity before you pay. Send them to yourself and a few others, and you see the email, the reply and the guest list working.

Good to knowWhen you are ready, you pay 199 kr. and open the invitation for all guests. Then you can invite as many as you like and share the link. Nothing more to pay.

Replies

The replies gather on their own, you do not need to do anything. You see who is coming, who is not, who might, and who has yet to reply.

Good to knowIf someone has not replied, you can send a reminder to all of them with one press.

Ready to make your own?

It takes a few minutes, and you can change everything afterwards.
