Getting married? Want to use an online wedding invitation- RSVP? No problem – you can build an online invitation form yourself.
An online wedding invitation is a great solution for all you busy people (and really…who isn’t busy when planning a wedding?) who do not want to find out whether or not people are coming by letters or phone calls. Why waste time when you can find out via email?
A wedding is a happy occasion that is never taken lightly: planning the event takes up lots of time and efforts. Finding the right venue, catering, music, cake, dress and suit, shoes, hair dresser, makeup artist, bouquet, rings, minister, honeymoon etc…the list of things to is really long. When you put such efforts in this event you really want to make sure that your guests are coming…this is where an online wedding invitation comes in.
The best thing about creating the form using a form builder tool is that it is really easy and no programming skills are required whatsoever. In addition, you do not need to install or download anything because the form creator is a web tool.

1- login to the form creator
2- in the data center – choose “create new form”.
3- If you have the initial help label on the screen (“To start simply drag an element from the toolbar”) press on the “delete” icon to remove it.
4- Go to the “form settings” on the right and give you form a name
5- Change the background color of the form (I chose the color # e9c0ea, but you can keep it white if you like…)
6- Add an image of your choice (a picture of you and your boy friend/girl friend, 2 love birds, puppies, flowers, or whatever you think is suitable) by dragging the “image” element. Make sure to enter the actual width and height of the image in the “element settings” so the picture will not be distorted.
7- Add a 5 px white border around the image by using the border style options in the “design toolbar”.
8- Drag a “label” element from the “element toolbar” above and change the text in the “element settings” on the right to :”we’re getting married”
