How to Create Beautiful Wedding Invitation Cards at Zero Cost

Gone are the days when you had to spend tens of thousands of shillings printing wedding invitation cards, only to have some get lost in the mail or never reach your guests. Today, you can create a beautiful, shareable wedding invitation that costs you absolutely nothing—and actually works better than paper ever did.

The Problem with Traditional Wedding Invitations

If you’re planning a Kenyan wedding, you’ve probably already done the math on printed invitation cards. Between design fees, quality paper, printing costs, and the nightmare of distributing them across Nairobi (or worse, to upcountry relatives), you’re looking at KES 30,000 to KES 100,000 easily.

And even after all that effort, what happens? Uncle calls to ask what time the ceremony starts—because he left the card at home. Auntie wants to know the exact venue—but she can’t read the fancy script font. Cousin didn’t get the card at all because the matatu guy delivered it to the wrong plot.

There’s a better way.

Your Wedding Website: The Foundation

With Harusi Hub, you can create a complete wedding website in under 10 minutes, absolutely free. Your site becomes the central hub for everything your guests need to know:

• Your Story – Share how you met or a message to your guests
• Event Details – All your wedding events with dates, times, and venue addresses
• Photos – Your engagement photos or favorite couple pictures
• RSVP – Guests can confirm attendance right from the website
• Registry – Let guests know what gifts you’d appreciate

Your site gets a custom URL like harusihub.com/james-and-amina that you can share anywhere.

The Real Game-Changer: Personalized Invite Links

Here’s where Harusi Hub does something no printed card can do. You can create personalized invitation links for different guest groups.

Want your parents to send out their own invitations to their side of the family? Create an invite link that says “Mr. & Mrs. Kamau cordially invite you to celebrate the marriage of James & Amina.”

Want your best man to invite his crew? Create a casual link that says “Kevin invites you to party with us as we celebrate James & Amina.”

Each invite link opens a beautiful splash page that shows:

• Who’s inviting – The inviter’s names (your parents, siblings, friends)
• The invitation – Choose from 5 styles (formal, cordial, joyful, traditional, or casual)
• The couple – Your names displayed beautifully
• The details – Wedding date and location
• Your message – Optional custom message for that guest group

Guests can then “Accept Invite” to RSVP, view full wedding details, or check the gift registry—all from one link.

How to Get Started

Creating your wedding website takes three simple steps:

Step 1: Choose Your Theme Pick from beautiful, curated themes. Filter by color to match your wedding aesthetic—whether you’re going for soft pastels, bold colors, or elegant neutrals.

Step 2: Enter Your Details Add your names, wedding date, and city. This takes about 30 seconds. You’ll see a live preview as you type.

Step 3: Create Your Account Set up your account and choose your custom URL. Done!

Your wedding website is now live. From your dashboard, you can then create personalized invite links for different guest groups and start sharing.

Why Digital Invitations Are Better for Kenyan Weddings

They’re shareable via WhatsApp – And let’s be honest, that’s where all your wedding planning is happening anyway. One link, shared to all your groups, and everyone has the details.

They can’t get lost – Your guest can open the link anytime to check the date, time, or venue.

They’re always updated – Venue changed? Time moved? Just update your website once, and everyone automatically has the right information.

They track who’s coming – See exactly who’s viewed their invite and who’s RSVPed.

Different invites for different groups – Let your parents invite their relatives their way, while you invite your friends your way.

The Bottom Line

You can spend money on printed cards that might get lost, forgotten, or thrown away. Or you can create beautiful digital invitations that are free, always accessible, and actually help you manage your guest list.

Stop stressing about invitation cards. Start planning your actual wedding.
