Everything about Event Invitations

Pricing, RSVP tracking, planner accounts, guest experience — all answered here.

Pricing & Payment
How much does a CinematicCard event invitation cost?

A single event costs from $24.99, based on your guest count — one payment, one event, invites for your whole guest list. Your RSVP dashboard stays live for 90 days.

For event professionals: Pro Planner is $49/month (unlimited events + guests). Annual Pro is $249/year — roughly $21/month.

How is event pricing calculated?
One price per event, based on your guest count: $24.99 for up to 50 guests, $59.99 for up to 150, $169.99 for up to 500 and $199.99 for up to 1,000. No coins or credits. You pay once and send to everyone.
Can I try it for free before paying?
Yes. You can build your entire invitation — pick the animation, set all event details, preview the full cinematic experience — completely free. You only pay when you're ready to send invitations to your guests.
What's the difference between Single Event and Pro Planner?

Single Event (from $24.99) is for individuals hosting one event. Pay once, get your RSVP dashboard for 90 days, send to as many guests as you want.

Pro Planner ($49/month) is for wedding planners, funeral homes, corporate event teams, and professional event coordinators who run multiple events. You get unlimited events, unlimited guests, a multi-event dashboard showing all your RSVPs across every event, and priority support.

Annual Pro ($249/year) is the same as Pro Planner but billed yearly — saves you $339 vs monthly.

Do regular greeting card prices change?
No. Regular CinematicCards (birthday, anniversary, sympathy, etc.) still start at $3.99. Event invitations are a separate product, from $24.99 per event based on guest count. You choose which mode you're in when building your card.
Guest Experience & RSVP
How do guests RSVP?
Guests receive a link. They tap it, watch the cinematic animation play (music, particles, their invitation opening), then see the event details inside the card — name, date, time, venue, dress code. A clear RSVP button at the bottom lets them tap Yes, No, or Maybe. Done. No app. No account. No friction.
Can guests change their RSVP after responding?
Yes. Guests can return to the card link and update their response any time before the RSVP deadline you set. If you didn't set a deadline, they can update it indefinitely until 90 days after the invitation was created.
Do guests need to create an account?
No. Guests open the invitation link, watch the experience, and tap to RSVP. No signup, no app download, no friction. It works on any phone, tablet, or computer.
Can guests leave a note with their RSVP?
Yes. After selecting their response, guests can optionally leave a short note — "Can't wait!" or "I'll be coming with +1" or "Sorry I can't make it, have a wonderful time." You'll see all notes in your RSVP dashboard.
What happens when a guest RSVPs — do I get notified?
Yes. Each RSVP triggers a notification to the host email you provided when creating the invitation. You can also check your RSVP dashboard at any time to see a live count and full guest list.
Event Dashboard
How do I see my RSVPs?
After purchase, you receive an email with your private dashboard link. Open it to see your live RSVP counts (Yes / No / Maybe / No Response) and a full guest list with names, responses, notes, and timestamps. No login required for Single Event — your dashboard link is your access.
Can I export my guest list?
Yes. Your RSVP dashboard has a CSV export button that downloads the full guest list: name, email, response, note, and timestamp.
How long does my dashboard stay active?
Single Event dashboards stay live for 90 days after creation. Pro Planner dashboards are permanent — your event history stays in your account as long as your subscription is active.
What does the Pro Planner multi-event dashboard show?
Pro Planner accounts get a unified dashboard showing all your events at a glance — event name, date, venue, and RSVP counts (Yes / No / Maybe / Pending) for each one. Click any event to drill into its full guest list. Upcoming events show a "days until" countdown. Past events are archived but accessible.
Invitation Design & Content
What event types are supported?
Birthday parties · Weddings · Baby showers · Graduation parties · Anniversary parties · Holiday parties · Corporate events · Retirement parties · Celebration of life services · Engagement parties

Each has a dedicated landing page at Event Invitations with curated animation themes suited to the occasion.
What information goes on the invitation card?
You fill in:
  • Event name (e.g., "Sarah's 30th Birthday Bash")
  • Date
  • Time
  • Venue / Location
  • Address (optional)
  • Dress code (optional — "Black tie" / "Casual" / "Cocktail attire")
  • RSVP deadline (optional)
  • Additional info (parking, kids welcome, dinner served, etc.)
  • Host name
Can I use the same cinematic animations as greeting cards?
Yes — event invitations use all the same animations, particle effects, and music tracks. Confetti for birthday parties. Hearts and slow music for weddings. Soft sparkles for celebration of life. You choose the theme that matches your event, and the inside of the card reveals your event details instead of a personal message.
Can I add photos to my invitation?
Yes. The photo slideshow add-on works the same as greeting cards — add up to 20 photos for a cinematic slideshow inside the invitation. Great for showing the venue, the couple, or past event highlights. Photos are included in the Single Event price.
Can I add a cash gift to an event invitation?
No — the cash gift (Venmo/PayPal/CashApp) reveal feature is only available for greeting cards. Event invitations focus on RSVP and event details.
Can I schedule invitation delivery for a specific date?
Yes. Like greeting cards, you can schedule invitations to be delivered on a specific date and time — useful if you want to send invites at exactly 8 AM on a Monday, or want to stagger your sends across time zones.
Pro Planner Accounts
Who is Pro Planner designed for?
Wedding planners, funeral homes, corporate event coordinators, party planning companies, churches, schools — anyone who runs multiple events and wants a professional dashboard to manage them all. Instead of paying per event, a Pro Planner account at $49/month covers everything.
How do I sign up for a Pro Planner account?
Visit Planner Portal to create your planner account. Once signed up, you can create events, manage RSVPs, and access your full dashboard from anywhere.
Can I cancel my Pro Planner subscription?
Yes, you can cancel anytime from your account dashboard. When you cancel, your account stays active until the end of your billing period. After that, you'll lose access to new event creation but your existing event dashboards remain accessible for the 90-day window.
Is there a limit on how many guests I can invite?
No. Single Event and Pro Planner are both unlimited — send to 10 guests or 1,000 guests, the price is the same.
