Frequently Asked Questions

A digital invitation is a web page instead of a printed card. It carries your names, the date, the venue, your photos and a live countdown, and it lives at its own link. Guests tap the link and it opens in whatever browser they already have — nothing to install, nothing to download and no account to create.

Open the Create Invitation page and work through seven short steps: choose the occasion, fill in your event details, add the programme and header wording, add photos or music if you want them, pick a design, colours and fonts, then download your invitation free — or host it online for ₹99. The card beside the form updates as you type, so you always know exactly what you are sending.

Yes — each hosted invitation gets its own link and its own one-time ₹99 payment, which is how families handle a wedding, a reception and a house warming in the same season. The editor holds one draft per browser at a time: host or download it, then press Start over for the next one.

Never. Guests only ever click a link. No sign-up, no app and no login screen stands between them and your invitation — which matters a lot when you are inviting relatives who are not comfortable with new apps.

Yes — a main photo, a venue photo, a background image behind the whole card, and a gallery of up to six pictures. While you edit, the images stay in your browser; they are only uploaded, together with the page, if you choose to host the invitation online.

Absolutely, and we would encourage it — a real photograph of the couple or the baby does more for an invitation than any stock image. You are responsible for having the right to use whatever you upload, which is covered in the Terms & Conditions.

Yes. Upload your own audio file (up to 8 MB) in the Media step. Guests play it from a music button in the corner of the card and the hosted page — it never starts on its own, so nobody opening the invitation in a quiet office is ambushed by shehnai.

Yes. Paste a Google Maps share link into the editor, or just type the full address and we will build the link for you. Guests get a Directions button that opens the venue in their own maps app with navigation ready to start.

Yes, and it is the most common way people send them. There is a one-tap WhatsApp button that opens your chat list with the message already written, and the same link works on Telegram, Facebook, email and plain SMS.

Mobile is the primary target. Every layout is designed at 320px first and then widened, and the whole page weighs a few hundred kilobytes, so it opens quickly even on a weak connection or an older phone.

Yes. The link works anywhere in the world, and the countdown is calculated against the event time you entered, so relatives abroad see a correct number of days remaining rather than a figure shifted by their own time zone.

You can print it or save it as a PDF straight from the editor — the print stylesheet strips the navigation and buttons so only the card comes through. You can also download the QR code as a PNG to put on a printed insert.

Until 31 days after your event. The ₹99 hosting plan is a one-time payment; the invitation stays live through the event and for 31 days after it. If you did not set an event date, the 31 days count from the day you hosted it. See the Pricing page for details.

31 days after the event, the card page, the host page and their uploaded photos and music are deleted automatically, and the link shows that the invitation has ended. Download the card or page before then if you want to keep a copy. If you would like it taken down sooner, write to us from the email address you hosted it with and include the link.

Before you host it, edit as much as you like — the draft is saved in your browser and the card updates as you type. A hosted invitation is published exactly as it was when you paid, so check names, the date and the venue carefully first. If something changes later, create the corrected invitation and host it at a new link.

Payments run through Razorpay, covering UPI, debit and credit cards, net banking and the major wallets. Card details are handled entirely by the payment provider — InviteAura never sees or stores them. The ₹99 hosting fee is a single, one-time payment.
