How do I add functions to the schedule?

By Nimanto 2 min read

In short

Open the Functions step when you create the invitation, or later under Update invitation details, and give each function a name and a time. A function without a date is on the invitation's date and at its venue unless you tick Different venue. Guests see one day sheet with directions.

A schedule turns one invitation into the whole celebration: the haldi, the sangeet, the reception, or a birthday's cake cutting and games. Guests scroll through it as one sheet, and functions on different days each get their own reply.

Add your functions

  1. Create the invitation, or open it from your dashboard and choose Update details.
  2. Go to the Functions step (called Schedule on designs that are not weddings). On a wedding design the usual functions start filled in as names to keep or edit; on other designs the sample rows are placeholders.
  3. Give each function a name and a time. Add a date if it is not on the invitation's date.
  4. Tick Different venue on a function held somewhere else and type its venue and address.
  5. Choose Add a function for more, and Save.

A design without a schedule page gets one, in the design's colours, as soon as you name a function.

What each function can carry

  • A dress code and short facts, such as "Dinner served" or "Kids welcome", printed as one quiet line.
  • A note for guests and a live-stream link, shown as a Watch live button.
  • A photo across the top of the function's card. Switch it on and upload one; without a photo there is no empty frame.

Dates and venues

  • A function without a date takes the invitation's date, and follows it when the date changes. A date you typed by hand is never moved.
  • Every function is held at the venue from your essentials until you tick Different venue.
  • Rows fall into date and time order on their own.

One reply per day

Functions on the same date are that day's programme and share one reply. Functions on different dates each get their own. Tick Separate RSVP on a function that shares its date when guests should answer for it on its own. See replies per function.

What guests see

The schedule is printed as a day sheet of stops: one stop for each date and place, with the date as a tile, the venue over its address, and Directions with the ride apps of that country. Under each stop its functions run down a timeline with their times, names, dress code and notes. The address is never repeated per function. Where the design made more room than your schedule needs, the page closes up under the last function.
