Memorial Invitation Maker
A quiet card for a memorial service, a prayer meeting or a day of remembrance.
Without a link, the guest's “Open map” button searches for the venue and address.
Guests get “I'll be there” and “Can't make it” buttons that open a message to this person.

{name} becomes the guest's name and {link} their invitation.
See it as your guest will ↗ · The invitation is inside the link — nothing is stored on a server.
There is no guest list on this device yet. Add your guests in the Guest List Maker and they appear here, each with their own send buttons.
Each button opens that guest's own message, addressed to them by name. A guest is ticked as invited when you tap one — in the Guest List Maker too. Tap the circle to change it.
A quiet card
This page opens on the Quiet design: two fine borders and a branch of leaves at the top and the foot, in slate grey. It starts with “In loving memory of” above the name and “Please join us to remember a life well lived” below. Type the name in the big line.
When someone opens the link, the heading above the card reads “A memorial invitation”, and the reply buttons say “I will attend” and “I am unable to attend”.
What to include
- The name, as people knew them. If they were known by another name, add it in the line below: “Ammini to all of us”.
- What the gathering is: a memorial service, a prayer meeting, a requiem mass, a condolence meeting, the 13th-day or 40th-day ceremony, a death anniversary. Change the line under the name to say so.
- The date, the time and the place. The date is written out with the day of the week.
- The family, in “From”: “The Mathew family”.
The years of a life — “1948 – 2026” — fit well at the start of the line under the name.
Wording, if you would like a start
| Gathering | Line under the name |
|---|---|
| Memorial service | Please join us to remember a life well lived |
| Prayer meeting | A prayer meeting will be held for the peace of the departed soul |
| Death anniversary | We remember him on his first death anniversary, with prayers and lunch |
| Celebration of life | Come and share your stories of her with us |
The note
The note is shown under the card and holds 500 characters. Families use it for what follows the service — “Lunch will be served afterwards” — and for wishes about flowers or donations: “In place of flowers, the family asks for a donation to the hospice.” If people are welcome to speak, say so here, and say who to tell.
Sending it
At a time like this the list is rarely written down. “WhatsApp” opens the message to send to a person or a family group, and “Copy message” puts it on the clipboard for anywhere else. For the people who should hear from you directly, type their name in “To”: the message and the card then open with “Dear …”. Older relatives are often better telephoned, with a printed card to follow — “Download PDF” makes one.
Whether to ask for replies is up to you. Leave “Replies go to” empty and there are no reply buttons at all, only the card, the map and the calendar entry.
Other colours
Slate is the default, not a rule. Ivory & gold and Sage are gentle alternatives, and in traditions where white is the colour of mourning, Ivory with the Plain design is the closest.
Can I make a memorial or prayer meeting invitation here?
Yes. This page opens on a quiet grey card with “In loving memory of” above the name. Type the name, the date and the place, and change the line under the name to say what the gathering is.
Does the invitation have to ask for replies?
No. If “Replies go to” is left empty, the invitation shows no reply buttons.
Can I print it?
Yes. “Download PDF” makes a one-page 5 × 7 inch card, and “Download picture” an image, with nothing added to either.
