What does a Card invitation not have?

A card is deliberately simple. Knowing what it leaves out helps you pick the right kind before you start.

Not on a card

• No schedule of functions. A card has one date, time and place. A wedding with a haldi, a sangeet and a reception, or any programme across days, belongs on a Signature invitation. See Schedule and functions.
• No Where to stay page. Places to stay can still be added under Extras in the card studio; they show in a short list on the Getting there card, not as a page of their own.
• No music. Nothing plays when a card opens.
• No envelope intros from the library. A card's envelope is its own, chosen from the twelve card envelope styles. See Card envelopes.
• No Invitation studio. Cards are changed in the card studio only; the painting and the layout of the card itself never change. You change the words.
• No planner. The planner is for Signature invitations. See Planner who can use.
• No photo frames of your own on the card. Guests' photos appear under the card from the shared album; the card's face stays the design's painting.

What a card does have

The same guest list, personal and shared links, replies with plus-ones and your own questions, reminders, a gift registry with lists, funds and group gifts, the photo album (on a premium card, or on Nimanto Pro or Business), directions and a calendar link, and the same dashboard. See What guests get from a card.

Changing your mind

• Before publishing, you can move a card to another card of the same occasion with Change design; your words, date, place, note, gifts and places to stay carry over. A card never becomes a Signature invitation; to use a Signature design, make a new invitation with it. See Change design after filling.
• A paid card, or a card whose date is more than 7 days past, cannot change its design; Duplicate and pick a design makes a copy with no date yet.
