Designed for
your event.
Priced for the invitation,
not the guest list.
Every invitation is created from scratch for your celebration — not chosen from a template someone else already used. Text it from your own number and watch every reply land in one place. You pay once for the invitation. Guests are unlimited and free.

The invitation goes out by text.
The answers come back organized.
Most invitation apps email your guests, or text them from a number nobody recognizes. TinselVite hands the message to your own phone — so it arrives from your number, in the thread you already share — and every reply comes back as a guest list that keeps itself current.
Your guest gets a text
No app to download. No account. No password. It opens in whatever browser they already have.
Your list fills itself in
Every answer updates the count the moment it arrives.
What you get back
-
A real head count
Plus-ones and children counted separately, so the caterer and the venue get a number you can stand behind.
-
Names of everyone attending
Not "the Okonkwos, party of four" — the actual names, for place cards and seating charts.
-
Meal choices and dietary needs
Allergies, vegetarian, gluten-free, and entrée selections arrive with the RSVP instead of by text three weeks later.
And the part everyone dreads
-
You can see who hasn't answered
Sorted, dated, and separate from everyone else — so you nudge four people instead of texting forty.
-
Ask anything the event needs
Song requests, which nights they're staying, whether they need a shuttle. The answer sits beside the guest who gave it.
-
Guests can change their mind
They reopen the same link and update it. Your count changes; nobody has to text you an apology.

Everyone else charges
by the guest.
Digital invitation platforms price per recipient or by subscription. A hundred and fifty guests is a $249 mailing at Greenvelope, several hundred coins at Paperless Post, one to three dollars a head at Minted. Send twice — a save-the-date, then the invitation — and most of those bills arrive twice.
| Platform | How it's priced | 150 guests, one send |
|---|---|---|
| Greenvelope | Per mailing, by guest-count tier | $249 |
| Paperless Post | Coins per recipient; premium cards cost more | $86–190 |
| Minted Digital | $1–3 per guest | $150–450 |
| Punchbowl | Annual subscription | $36–192/yr |
| Evite Pro | Annual subscription | $249.99/yr |
| TinselVite | One invitation. Guests unlimited. | $3.99 |
Each platform's own published rates, checked 20 August 2026. Greenvelope prices a single mailing by tier — a 150-guest list falls in the up-to-250 tier at $249, and its unlimited-send annual plan capped at 150 guests is $225 a year. Paperless Post sells coins from $12 for 25 to $115 for 1,000 and charges them per recipient, at roughly five to six for a premium card. Minted publishes $1–3 per guest for digital invitations. Punchbowl and Evite Pro are annual subscriptions. Verify before relying on any of these. TinselVite is $3.99 for one invitation, or $3.00 per design in any bundle; guests and RSVPs are unlimited and free at every size.
The guest list was never
the expensive part
One invitation is $3.99, or $3.00 in any bundle. Send it to twelve people or two hundred — the price does not move. There is no subscription, no coin currency, no per-recipient fee, and nothing that renews.
Against paper it
is not close
The average couple spends $220 on wedding invitations and $510 on a full stationery suite, according to The Knot's 2026 Real Weddings Study. For a hundred and fifty guests the postage alone is $234 before anything is printed, because a reply card has to be stamped in both directions.
An invitation app for
iPhone and Android.
TinselVite is a mobile app for creating and sending digital invitations. You choose an event type — wedding, birthday, baby shower, dinner party, and nine others — enter the details, and the app generates original artwork and typesets your wording into a custom invitation. You send it as a link by text message from your own phone.
Guests open the invitation in any browser. No app, no account, no password. They reply on the same page, and their answers appear on a live guest list only you can see.
TinselVite is operated by TinselVite, LLC.
Mia & Jackson,
West Palm Beach.
Every invitation comes in two pieces. The card is what your guest sees when they open the text — one image, made for this wedding and no other.
Behind it sits everything else they'll need: how the two of you met, the reception across town, the hotel block, the registry, whether they can bring someone. Nothing crowds the card, and nothing goes missing.

Our Story
Mia and Jackson met on a rainy Tuesday in a Charleston bookshop, both reaching for the last copy of the same novel. He let her have it; she read it in a weekend and gave it back with notes in the margins. Six years and one very well-annotated book later, they'd like you there when they say yes.
About the Event
Both the ceremony and reception will be held outdoors and will proceed rain or shine; guests are encouraged to dress accordingly.
Parking
Valet parking available for all guests at no charge

The art is generated.
The typography is not.
That distinction is the whole difference — and it is why the card above reads like an engraver set it.
-
Words are never drawn into the picture
The artwork is created first, and your wording is set over it afterwards by a typesetting system — which is why you will never find the garbled half-letters that give a generated image away. It also means you can change a venue or a time without regenerating anything.
-
The setting follows stationery rules, not software defaults
Dates are built as engraved lockups, with the rule weight, the numeral weight and every gap inside them derived from the cap height of the type alongside. The spacing on the card comes from a standard written for invitations, not from whatever a layout engine did.
-
Thirteen occasions, thirteen directions
A quinceañera does not borrow a wedding's template. Each event type has its own artwork brief, its own wording, and its own set of details worth asking for.
-
Composed the way illustrated stationery always has been
Botanicals weighted to the lower edge, a restrained palette, room at the top for the names. Not filled corner to corner because a machine could.
One card, made once, for one occasion. Nobody else has it.
Three steps, start to sent.
-
One
Design it
Pick your event, fill in the details, choose a style and tone. TinselVite generates the artwork and typesets your wording — every card is made for your event alone.
-
Two
Text it to your guests
Choose guests from your contacts or type them in. TinselVite creates a private link for each one and hands it to your phone's own Messages app to send.
-
Three
Track every reply
Yes, no, and maybe land in one place — along with head counts, plus-ones, meal choices, and anything else you asked. Your list stays current without a single follow-up text.
Made for the occasion,
not adapted to it.
A quinceañera shouldn't borrow a wedding's template. Each event type has its own artwork direction, its own wording, and its own set of details worth asking for.

Deep when the
event needs it.
A dinner party takes about two minutes. A three-day wedding takes longer, because there's more to say — and TinselVite has somewhere to put all of it.
Multi-day and multi-part events
Rehearsal dinner, ceremony, brunch. Events on the same day stack on the card; separate days get their own schedule page.
Everything guests actually ask
Dress code, parking, directions, hotel blocks, gift registry, and a note in your own words.
Add it to their calendar
One tap from the invitation puts the event on a guest's calendar with the address attached.
The things people ask first.
-
No. Guests tap the link in your text message and the invitation opens in whatever browser they already use. They RSVP on the same page — no download, no account, no password.
-
It creates a private link for each guest and hands the message to your phone's own Messages app. You press send, so the text arrives from your number — not from a service your guests don't recognize.
-
Attending or not, the number in their party, plus-ones and children counted separately, the names of everyone coming, meal choices and dietary restrictions, and any additional question your event needs.
-
No. Guests and RSVPs are unlimited and free, for every invitation. You pay once for the invitation itself, and nothing after that.
-
No. Most digital invitation platforms charge per recipient or by subscription, so a single 150-guest send runs anywhere from roughly $86 to $249. TinselVite charges once for the invitation. Guests and RSVPs are unlimited and free, however many you invite.
-
Yes. They reopen the same link and update it, and your guest list reflects the change immediately.
-
No. The app is free to download and free to send with. Design credits are bought once and never expire.
-
The artwork is, yes — created new for your event rather than picked from a library, which is what lets a custom invitation cost a few dollars instead of a few hundred. The wording is not generated into the image; it is typeset over the art by a system built on stationery conventions, which is why the lettering is always clean, and why you can change a venue or a time without regenerating the design.
-
Many do. The usual tells are text drawn into the image with malformed letters, artwork filled corner to corner, and a template stretched to fit an occasion it was not made for. TinselVite avoids all three by construction. Look at the invitation above and judge for yourself — that is what it is there for.
