Previewing and saving invitation as an image
Learn how to preview your invitation ecard before sending and save it as an image for printing, sharing, or archiving purposes.
Before you send your invitation, preview it to make sure everything is perfect. You can also save it as an image for printing or sharing.
Previewing your invitation
Go to Ecards in your main navigation
Select your invitation
Click the preview option
Review how it looks
What to check
All names are spelled correctly
Date, time, and venue are accurate
The design looks good with your chosen colors and fonts
Text is readable against the background image (if using one)
RSVP instructions are clear
QR code is scannable (if enabled)
Saving as an image
You can download your invitation as an image, exactly as it looks online with your text, colors, fonts and background image:
Go to Ecards in your main navigation and select Invitation
Click the More menu (the three dots at the top right)
Click Download image
The image downloads as a JPG. It takes a few seconds to create. The card is 600 pixels wide on screen, and the image is saved at double resolution (1200 pixels wide) so it stays sharp on phones and in print. It doesn't include the buttons below the card.
If you've added other languages, choose the language at the top of the page before downloading to get that version.
Downloading the blank template
You can also download the blank invitation template file (without your personalized content). This gives you the background design that you can then customize in a design program.
Note that this download does not include your personalized text, names, dates, or event details. It only contains the background design.
Uses for saved images
Print physical copies at home or at a print shop
Share on social media or messaging apps
Include in other communications
Keep as a digital keepsake
Ecards are always current
Remember that when guests click the link in their email, they see the current version of your invitation. If you make changes after sending, all guests will see the updated version, not the version from when you sent the email.
This is helpful if you need to fix a typo or update venue details, but be mindful that any changes will be visible to everyone who views the ecard.
Tips
Send a test email first. Before sending to guests, send a test to yourself to see the complete experience.
Check on mobile. Many guests will view your invitation on their phone.
Proofread everything. While you can fix mistakes later (since ecards are always current), it's best to catch them before sending. Names, dates, times, venue, address. Check it all twice.
Download again after changes. The image is a copy of your invitation at the moment you download it. Unlike the online ecard, it doesn't update, so download it again after any changes.
Preview after any changes. If you edit your invitation after sending emails, preview it again to confirm everything looks right.
