For the relatives watching from abroad
Grandmother in another country should not have to ask four people for the link. A livestream slot inside the invitation gives remote guests one button, a stated hour, and nothing else to chase.
Every gathering has its absent list: the aunt who cannot fly, the father working nights, the friend still recovering, the grandparents for whom a first dance or a reveal is the event of their year. When those people are included by a stream, the technical part is embarrassingly fragile. A link sent to one person privately, forwarded to the wrong few, or pasted last-minute into a chat nobody reads.
A livestream link slot on the invitation page puts the link in the same place as the date and the address. Anyone who opens the invitation, on any screen in any country, finds the same single answer.
Paste the viewing link your stream provider gives you, then open the published page yourself and test it before the invitation goes out. A broken link you find at noon is cheaper than one a guest finds during the vows.
There is no automatic magic in the slot. Say in words when the stream opens and when the moment itself happens, and name the time zone if your guests sit in two or three. A timed link is a link with a stated time beside it.
Tell people what they are watching: the ceremony, the reveal, the speeches, or the whole afternoon. Remote guests build their evening around that sentence, so give them something specific to plan.
Remote guests treat the invitation exactly as everyone else does: opened once from WhatsApp, then returned to. Their question simply comes a day later than yours: will I actually see it? The slot answers that in advance, and the reply button works for them too; a yes from another continent is still a yes on your guest list.
If the stream is still being arranged when invitations go out, publish the page with the section in place and say what will appear there, then add the link once it exists. Guests who open the earlier version know what is coming; guests who open it on the day press a working button.
How it works
Start a wedding, baby shower, birthday or graduation page in the app, or tell Jitabi on WhatsApp that the family abroad will be watching. The livestream slot comes with the full guest site.
Write the stated time and the expectation first. Paste the viewing link when your provider hands it to you, publish the change, and every guest sees the button without a resend.
The same invitation travels to the room and the remote seats together, so nobody receives a different set of instructions and nobody has to ask which message was current.
Open the page from a borrowed device the day before and follow the button. It is the one step that turns a hopeful section into a confirmed one.
Questions
The slot holds a link. Whatever service you arrange the stream with, paste the viewing link it gives you and guests reach it from the invitation. Nothing is wired into the software; the page is simply the place everyone already knows to look.
Yes, and that is the normal order of things. The page is live, so the button appears for everyone the moment you publish the change. Nobody needs a resend, and older messages still lead to the current version.
Everyone who can open the page. If the event itself is private, pair the two features: a password-protected invitation, shared carefully with the invited list, keeps both the address and the stream away from wider forwarding.
They reply like any other guest, so the guest list shows who is joining in person and who on screen, particularly if you ask the point straight in the reply note. Separate the two wherever a screen changes anything physical, like catering.
The slot replaces the message you would otherwise repeat. Keep one short sentence in the WhatsApp text pointing at it, and remote guests have the whole answer in the place they were going to open anyway.
Get Started
Put the date, the address and one clear button on the same page, and the family abroad is at the event. Start free, shape the invitation, and add the link when the stream exists.
