Introducing Ivee

A single shareable link with a real preview image, generated from the invite's own name, date, and colors.

Introducing Ivee

I kept running into the same problem whenever someone asked me to make an invite for a wedding, a dinner, a naming ceremony: every "invitation site" I tried either looked like a 2012 WordPress theme, or wanted me to pay for a subscription just to generate one PDF.

So I built Ivee.

Ivee lets you pick from templates built for specific occasions — weddings, birthdays, graduations, formal dinners, even a proper Dining-In — fill in the event details, and get a single shareable link.

The part I actually care most about: when that link lands in a WhatsApp or iMessage thread, the preview isn't a generic favicon and a wall of text. It's a custom image generated on the fly from that invite's own name, date, colors, and cover photo.

Small detail. Makes the difference between someone opening your invite and someone scrolling past it.

Built with Next.js, Tailwind, Framer Motion, and GitHub as the database (yes, really — events and RSVPs are JSON files committed through the GitHub API).
