What does the add-to-calendar option do?

It creates a standard calendar file with the date, start time, venue name and address. Most phone and desktop calendar apps can open it, and guests can add it in a few taps without needing an account.

Will the map link open the right place?

It opens your venue's address in the guest's default maps app. Check the link on your own phone before sharing, especially for rural venues where a postcode can point to a different spot.

Can I use different maps for the ceremony and the reception?

Yes. You can describe two events in the chat, each with its own time and map link. Each event's calendar file is separate, so guests can add the one they need.

Do guests need an account to see the map or add the event?

No. Guests open the page from one link, tap the map or calendar button, and reply to the RSVP form. You receive an email for each reply and can see totals and export a CSV.

Can I change the address or time after I have shared the page?

Yes. Ask for the change in chat or edit the page by hand. Guests who already added the calendar file will need the updated file from the page, so tell them to re-download it if the time moves.

Invitation with map and add to calendar for your wedding

Wedding guests often drive to a farm, a church hall or a hotel they have never visited, and the date ends up buried in a group chat. This invitation puts a map link and a calendar file on the same page, so the date and the way there are one tap away. You describe the wedding in chat, and the page is ready to share as a single link.

What to put on a wedding invitation with map and add to calendar

Venue name and full street address, with the map link opening directly to the venue
Date, start time and the time guests should arrive if it differs
Add-to-calendar file that includes the venue address and start time
Separate map links if the ceremony and reception are in different places
Parking or shuttle notes, such as where to leave the car and how long the walk is
Time zone if you have guests travelling in from another region
RSVP form with a reply deadline so you know numbers for catering

The page has an RSVP form: guests say yes or no, how many are coming, and anything you ask (allergies, email, phone). You get an email for each reply and a guest list with a CSV export.

When to send it

8 weeks before: Confirm the venue address and check that the map link opens to the right entrance, not just the town
6 weeks before: Share the page link and ask guests to RSVP by a set date
3 weeks before: Open the calendar file on your own phone and check the time and location appear correctly
1 week before: Update parking or arrival notes if the car park or shuttle plan has changed
