Create an invitation
Design an invitation in a couple of minutes.
The form is deliberately short. Only two things are actually required — a title and a start time — and everything else sits under Advanced options, which you can leave alone or come back to later.
Getting there
e-InvitesAdd
The main form
- BannerOptional
- The picture at the top — the first thing guests see. Pick a photo and you can crop it before it is used.Optional. Without one you get a coloured background based on the occasion type.
- Invitation titleRequired
- What the occasion is called, for example “Lena's first birthday”.
- What kind of invitation?Required
- Birthday, Party, Religious Function, House Warming or Wedding. Defaults to Birthday.Tap + Custom to type your own if none of them fit.
- StartsRequired
- The date and time your event begins.Cannot be in the past. Changing it clears an end time that would now be earlier.
- LocationOptional
- Where it is. Type three or more characters and pick from the suggestions to attach a proper map location.
- MessageOptional
- A warm note to your guests — why you are gathering, what to bring, anything they should know.
Advanced options
All optional, and all editable later. Worth a look if you want RSVPs or guest numbers.
- Ask guests to RSVPOptional
- Whether guests can reply at all. On by default.Turn it off and the reply buttons disappear for everyone.
- RSVP optionsOptional
- Which answers guests may choose: Will Join, Tentative, Can't Join. All three are on by default.At least one must stay on.
- Ask number of guestsOptional
- Ask how many people each guest is bringing. Off by default.Only asked after someone chooses Will Join — so Will Join gets locked on while this is enabled.
- EndsOptional
- When you expect things to finish.Only selectable once you have set a start time, and cannot be earlier than it.
- Online meeting linkOptional
- A Meet, Teams or Zoom link for anyone joining remotely.Must start with http or https.
- AgendaOptional
- A running order — 'Cake cutting', 'Speeches'. Add as many lines as you like.
- Contact detailsOptional
- A name, phone number and email so guests know who to ask.If you fill in a phone or email it has to be valid; leaving them empty is fine.
When you tap Continue, Wapoka asks how you want to finish:
- Save as draft — keeps everything safe under Created. Guests cannot see it yet.
- Go live — publishes it and takes you straight to the guest picker so you can send it.
