Formal gala evenings with an invited list

A flawless gala evening: every guest invited in person, seated at their table and welcomed by name.

Every guest gets a personal WhatsApp invitation in Hebrew, Russian or English. You hand the list of those who have not answered to a colleague, plan the seating, and welcome each person by name at the door.

Annual company partyInviteBerry

An evening together, with the whole team

Thursday, 17 June 2027

Open the invitation site
11:30

From the guest list to the door

Four screens, from the invitation to the table

Scroll down and the phone moves on to the next part of the evening.

  1. Weeks before

    A page that names the people who matter

    The programme, the venue, how to get there and the dress code, in Hebrew, Russian and English. Add a Speakers card for the honouree, the host and the performer, and a Sponsors credit with the support of your partners.

  2. When they answer

    Who comes, who they bring, what they eat

    Attending or not, adults and children, a companion’s name, and the questions you switch on: vegetarian, kosher, a food allergy. A guest who confirms is offered the calendar and Waze.

  3. No answer yet

    A call list a colleague can work

    The no-answer round goes to a committee member by private link, ready to call from their own phone, each outcome marked in one tap. The link cannot edit, export or send.

  4. At the entrance · paid add-on

    Any guest’s table, found by name

    The host finds the party by name, in any alphabet, says the table and marks everyone in. A guest tablet by the entrance shows the table and nothing else. Switched on per event.

Three jobs of the evening

The hall, the phone, the door

Each card names only what exists today.

  • Table 1

    The hall

    Seat the room the way you would on paper, with a person to decide.

    • Tables in seven shapes, or rows of chairs with aisles
    • A stage, a screen and a bar on the plan
    • Seat-together groups, keep-apart pairs and a VIP seat
    • A printed hall map. The AI floor plan is a paid add-on
  • Table 2

    The phone round

    Save the date, no answer yet, thank-yous: three rounds, one big call button per row.

    • Outcomes in one tap, with five seconds to undo
    • Hand a round to a committee member by a private link
    • The link opens that round for everyone in it and edits nothing
    • Undelivered messages sit on top, in a group of their own
  • Table 3

    The door

    One link and a phone for whoever stands at the entrance.

    • A name is found whether it is typed in Hebrew, Russian or English letters
    • The table in large type, one tap to mark the party in
    • Two doors see each other’s marks within about twenty seconds
    • Someone not on the list is written down for you

    A paid add-on, switched on per event.

Recognition

The people you are holding the evening for, named on the invitation

Built for

The people who own the list, the hall and the date

From the development office to the volunteer at the door.

  • Events and development managers

    Own the annual evening and its list, and need both to be right.

  • Volunteer gala committees

    A chair working from a phone between other jobs, with members who take a round when it is handed to them.

  • Board and committee members

    Handed one link to a call list of the guests who have not answered, with no account to make.

  • The director’s office

    Reads the list and the seating without touching either: the Host role.

  • Producers hired for the evening

    Producing the evening for a nonprofit, while the client watches as Host.

  • Foundations and institutions

    A hospital friends’ group or a university office with one large evening a year.

  • Staff hired for the door

    Receive totals and allergy descriptions only, never names, on paper or as a spreadsheet.

The organiser panel

Four screens that help you run the evening

Tap a tab. The names and numbers are examples.

The half of the list that has not answered, ready to call

Three ready rounds: save the date, no answer yet, thank-yous. Call from your own phone, or hand a round to a committee member by private link, without the panel.

  • One tap records the outcome: coming, not coming, no answer, wrong number
  • The link opens the round you tick, for everyone in it, and cannot edit, export or send anything
  • You switch it off at once, and it expires on its own
