Your engagement is the first time both families celebrate together in public, and the guest list often grows faster than expected. Ocvite lets you create an engagement invitation with your photos and venue details, share it in minutes and see who has confirmed before you book the hall.
Every guest replies from the invitation itself. Meal choices, plus-ones and headcount stay in one tidy list, so you can focus on the engagement (ring ceremony).
Begin Your Guest ListWith great joy, the [Family Name] and [Family Name] families invite you to the engagement of [Name] and [Name] on [Date] at [Time], [Venue]. Your blessings will make the occasion complete.
We said yes, and now we want to celebrate with you. Come raise a toast to [Name] and [Name] at our engagement party on [Date], [Time], at [Venue]. Please RSVP by [RSVP date].
[Name] and [Name] are getting engaged on [Date] at [Venue], [Time]. We would love to have you there. Tap the invite for the location and let us know if you can come.
Feature a pre-engagement shoot photo, choose colours to match your outfits and set fonts that reflect your personalities.
Guests reply attending, not attending or maybe, so you can plan the venue size and menu with confidence.
Send the invite to family groups and friends in one go, using a link that opens neatly on any phone.
Check invitation views alongside responses so you know which relatives still need a personal call.
Announce the match beautifully, gather both families on one date and know your numbers well before the caterer asks.
Start Your InvitationTick these off before the invite goes out so guests have everything they need.
Start with an engagement template, upload a photo of the two of you, and edit the names, colours and fonts. Add the date, time, venue with a map pin and any dress code, then send the invite through WhatsApp, email or a shareable link. Responses arrive in real time as guests reply.
Mention the couple's names, the hosting families, the date, start time and venue with a map. Add the timing of the ring exchange if guests should arrive before it, a dress code or colour theme, whether dinner is served, and a contact number for anyone who needs directions on the day.
Three to four weeks is usually enough for a local engagement. If relatives must travel, give them six weeks. Because many engagements are planned quickly after the families agree, a digital invite helps you reach everyone fast, and a reminder a day or two before keeps the timing fresh.
Ask guests to RSVP through the invite and include plus-ones where you allow them. Your dashboard shows attending, not attending and maybe responses as they come in, so you can share a realistic number with the venue and caterer and follow up only with guests who have not replied.
Families use the terms differently. A roka is usually an intimate ritual where families formally accept the match, while an engagement or ring ceremony centres on the couple exchanging rings, often with a larger party. Some families combine them, so state clearly on the invite which rituals will take place.
