In short

You can make a wedding reception invitation online for free with IndiaDigital Invites: choose one of 39 wedding reception themes, add the function (Reception) with date, time, venue and a map, write the words in English and Hindi (or another Indian language), and share one link on WhatsApp. Guests need no app or login, RSVP is optional, and the page is deleted 7, 30 or 90 days after the event.

The reception is often the biggest guest list of the whole wedding. Office colleagues, neighbours, the groom’s college friends and relatives from the other side of the family all come together for one evening. It might be a bou bhaat in Kolkata, a walima after the nikah, or a cocktail dinner in a hotel ballroom a week after the wedding in another city.

Because the list is so long, getting a reliable headcount matters more here than anywhere else. This free invite page shows the date, time, venue and dress code clearly, opens directions in Google Maps, and lets each guest reply with how many people are coming. You see the total on a dashboard and can download it as an Excel or CSV file for the caterer and the hotel.

What your guests get

  • Venue, timing and dress code at a glance
  • Google Maps directions to the hotel or lawn
  • One-tap add to calendar for the evening
  • RSVP with number of guests for an accurate headcount
  • A few photos from the wedding to set the mood

Questions

Can I export the guest count for the hotel?

Yes. The dashboard shows everyone who replied with their headcount, and you can download the list as an Excel or CSV file to share with the banquet manager.

Our reception is in a different city from the wedding. Is that a problem?

Not at all. Every function has its own venue and map, so you can keep the wedding in one city and the reception in another on the same page, or make a separate page only for the reception.

Can I print a QR code on the reception card?

Yes. A printable QR card is available for your invite, so guests who receive a paper card can scan it and reach the map and RSVP.

Free, no app for guests. Your invite, photos and replies are stored until 7, 30 or 90 days after the last function (you choose) and then permanently deleted. Privacy notes.
