JoinMe RSVP

Overview

Digital invitations with customizable event pages, RSVP tracking, and guest-list management.

Problem

Digital event invitations are either generic and impersonal or require expensive design tools. Hosts need a way to create beautiful, branded invitations with built-in RSVP management.

Constraints

Guests primarily respond on mobile devices, requiring a mobile-first approach. Hosts needed real-time visibility into responses without managing a separate spreadsheet.

Solution

Designed a template-driven invitation builder with customizable themes, real-time RSVP tracking, and guest list management. Focused on mobile-first design since most guests respond from their phones.

Product & Architecture

React and Next.js with a template rendering engine for invitation customization. Mobile-first responsive design with touch-optimized interactions. Real-time RSVP tracking dashboard with guest list management and automated notification system.

Key Highlights

• Customizable invitation templates with brand theming
• Real-time RSVP dashboard with guest response tracking
• Mobile-optimized RSVP flow for guests
• Automated guest reminders and follow-up notifications

Outcome & Status

Launched as a public platform for creating and managing event invitations with real-time guest tracking.

• Created a mobile-first RSVP path designed for quick guest completion

Lessons Learned
