Personalised Video Invites: How One 30-Second Recording Becomes a Personal Invite for Every Guest

A printed card or a forwarded message says the same thing to everyone. A personalised video invite does something different: every guest receives a short video from the host that opens with their own name, spoken in the host’s own voice, with the host’s face moving in sync. It looks and sounds as if the host sat down and recorded that invitation just for them.

The host does not record hundreds of videos. They record one 30-second invite. Using AI and your guest list, Magik Touch turns that single recording into a separate video for every name on the list. This is our AI Personalised Invites service.

• The host records one clear video invite of up to 30 seconds that opens with a guest’s name, for example “Hi Rohan, …”. We share simple recording tips before they start.
• You share the guest list as an Excel sheet with each guest’s name.
• AI creates a separate video for every guest: their name is spoken in the host’s voice and the lip movement is matched, while the rest of the message stays exactly as the host recorded it.
• You review the videos. All files are delivered to you by link, named per guest.
• You send each guest their own invite on WhatsApp, email or social media.

Nothing needs to be set up at the venue. The whole service is produced and delivered before the event.

• One clear source video of the host. Up to 30 seconds, starting with a guest’s name. The clearer the recording, the more natural every personalised video looks.
• Your guest list in Excel. One name per row, spelled the way it should be said.
• Notes on tricky names. If a name has an unusual pronunciation, add a note in the sheet so those videos get a careful check during review.
• The message itself. Date, venue, dress code or RSVP details the host wants to mention in the recording.

Good recording habits help: a quiet room, soft even light on the face, the camera at eye level and the host looking straight into the lens. Our team shares the exact recording guidance before the host records.

Personalised video invites work best wherever a personal touch from the host matters:

• Weddings: the couple or parents invite each guest personally, which is especially welcome for elders and relatives who live far away.
• Milestone birthdays and anniversaries: an invitation that feels as personal as the celebration.
• Dealer meets, product launches and VIP events: a senior leader invites each partner or client by name, which a mass email cannot match.

It is not the right fit if invitations must go out at very short notice, or if you do not have a named guest list. For a personal welcome at the venue itself, a Talking Portrait can greet guests on arrival instead.

Because every video is produced and reviewed before it is sent, build time into your invitation schedule for the host’s recording, production and your review. The production time depends mainly on the number of guests, so share your guest count with us early and we confirm a timeline for your dates.

In wedding season, invitations usually go out several weeks before the event, so it helps to fix the recording date as soon as the guest list is close to final. Talk to our team to plan yours.
