Can I put the full invitation on the same page later?

Yes. You can edit the page by hand or by chat when the venue, timings and programme are settled, so the save the date page becomes the full invitation without a new link.

Is an early reply binding?

No. An early reply is a yes or no, a number of guests and a note. It helps you plan, but it is not a final count, so keep the final numbers for the full invitation.

Do guests need an account to open the page?

No. Guests open the link you send them and reply from the page without signing up for anything.

Can I send the page as a printed card?

No. WordGPT does not make printed cards or ship them. Share the link by message or email and keep any paper cards separate.

How far ahead should I send a save the date page?

Many couples send it several months before the wedding, especially if guests are travelling or the date is in a busy season. Send it early enough that guests can plan time off and travel.

Save the date page for your wedding

A save the date page gives guests the day and the city months before the formal invitation is ready. Your guests open one link, see the date, and can reply early with a yes or no if they already know they can come.

What to put on a wedding save the date page

The wedding date and the city, with the country if guests may be travelling
The couple's names as you want them to appear
A line saying the full invitation, with venue, timings and travel details, will follow
An optional early reply: yes or no, number of guests, and a short note
A few extra questions if you want early answers, such as dietary needs or a hotel choice
Your contact email, so guests know where to send questions

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

6 to 9 months before the wedding: Make the page in chat and send the link to close family first
4 to 6 months before: Share the link with the wider guest list and watch the early replies come in
2 to 3 months before: Update the page by chat or by hand with the venue and programme, then send the full invitation link
After the full invitation: Check the guest list and totals, and export the CSV if you need it for a caterer or venue
