What is a photo invitation?

Picture-Perfect Invitations

A photo invitation uses your own picture as the main part of the Canva design. CreatEcards keeps that personalized invitation, turns it into a live event page, and adds online RSVPs, event details, and guest tracking without making you rebuild it.

Use the photo invitation you personalized in Canva, then add the event details and RSVP. CreatEcards turns the design into a mobile-friendly invitation page where guests can see the plans and respond. You keep the personal image and manage the guest list in one place.
