Printed shaadi cards are beautiful, but most guests now first hear about a wedding on WhatsApp. A digital wedding invitation turns that message into something worth opening: a small website for your wedding that guests open with one tap, with everything they need in one place.
What is a digital wedding invitation?
It is a link, for example momentix.imaginyx.com/rahulwedsananya, that opens a mobile-friendly page for your wedding. A good one does three jobs at once:
- It makes an impression. It opens with a moment, like palace gates swinging open or a velvet curtain rising, the way a beautiful card does when you lift the flap.
- It informs. Names, families, every function (mehndi, haldi, sangeet, nikah or pheras, reception) with date, time and venue.
- It helps. One-tap Google Maps directions, a “save the date” button for the calendar and a live countdown, so nobody calls you to ask for the address.
What should it include?
Use this as a checklist before you send your details to a designer:
- The couple’s names and, if your family prefers, parents’ names (“Son of Mr. & Mrs. Sharma”).
- A blessing line at the top if you want one, such as ॥ श्री गणेशाय नमः ॥, Bismillah or ੴ ਸਤਿ ਨਾਮੁ.
- Every event with its own date, time, venue and dress code.
- Directions for each venue: a Google Maps link opens straight in the guest’s maps app.
- A countdown to the big day.
- Photos, music and your story if you want a premium feel: a pre-wedding shoot, a gallery, a short film, and the song that plays when the invitation opens.
- A personal greeting. A link like …/rahulwedsananya?to=Ahmed opens with “Dear Ahmed”, which guests love.
Video invite, PDF card or website invitation?
A video invitation looks great, but it is a heavy file. It gets compressed on WhatsApp, can’t be updated if a venue changes, and guests have to scroll back through the chat to find the address. A PDF or image card is light but static. A website invitation keeps the cinematic opening of a video, and the details stay live: change a time and every guest sees the new one on the same link. We compare all three in detail in Website invitation vs video invite vs printed card.
How much does a digital wedding invitation cost in India?
Prices across Indian studios vary widely. Template images on Canva-style apps sit around ₹150–500, a detailed animated invite is often ₹3,500 or more, and a cinematic “movie” invite can be ₹5,000+. At Momentix the price is one-time per invitation, with unlimited guests and views:

How to send it
Send the link in your family WhatsApp groups, as a broadcast, or one by one with each guest’s name in the link. Our step-by-step guide covers the message to write and the timing: How to send a wedding invitation on WhatsApp.
Is a digital invitation respectful enough for elders?
Yes, especially when you add a personal touch. Many families send the digital invitation to everyone and still hand-deliver a few printed cards to close elders. You can call first, then send the link, so the phone call carries the respect and the link carries the details.
