Project Case Study
The Brief
Having struggled to manage RSVPs for her own engagement party, the owner of Envytations approached me in 2016 with an idea of producing a web application to make it super-easy to send out customisable invitations and coallate the resulting RSVPs via e-mail and text message.
The Solution
Working closely with the design team at Envytations, I produced a completely bespoke system for not only customising and designing the online invitations, but that also allowed customers to manage guest lists and receive real-time notifications of RSVPs to their events.
Upon signing into the application, a user purchases a package that meets their requirements - some consisting of just a single invitation, others with more diverse options such as multiple events and higher numbers of people allowed to be invited - which then allows the user to start working on their invitation.
The customer selects a design template for their event and the appropriate text fields are shown so that they can enter any relevant details about it - the information is updated on the design in real-time so that they can see exactly what is going to be sent out.
The customer can see (in real-time) any responses using a backend dashboard for each event they send out, to gauge the responses and chase up anyone who fails to respond in time.
