About the Project

A VIP RSVP Form That Finally Gets It Right

Streamlined. Branded. Stress-Free.

Before: An RSVP process that left high-profile guests confused and event teams drowning in follow-ups.
After: A seamless, polished experience that looked as good as it performed.

I redesigned the flow into a clear, branded journey that made responding effortless for guests and cut hours of admin work for organizers.

For the users (VIPs)

Quick, clear, and branded.

Finally an RSVP form that doesn’t feel like paperwork. 

VIPs knew exactly what to do, and they actually did it.

For the business

For the business

Less chasing. Less confusion. More scalability. 

With fewer follow-ups and fewer mistakes, teams got back hours, and a tool that no longer needed hand-holding.

What's the context?

A VIP RSVP form that needed to act the part.

A VIP RSVP form that needed to act the part.

INVITI runs high-profile events, but the existing RSVP system was clunky and confusing. Guests struggled to confirm, and the team spent too much time managing errors. I redesigned the form to be fast, polished, and effortless to use.

Product

INVITI’s external-facing RSVP form for high-profile event guests.

Users

Busy VIPs invited to exclusive shows.

Goal

Make RSVP frictionless, fast, and flexible.

My role

Lead product designer owned end-to-end UX, research, and visual redesign.

Why it wasn't working?

Confusing RSVP form, wasted time,
and frustrated event teams

Confusing RSVP form, wasted time,
and frustrated event teams

01.
Overly Formal, Dense Text Blocks

The invite copy is long, formal, and visually dense.

Key info (event name, date, RSVP deadline) isn’t prioritized visually.

No visual hierarchy to guide quick scanning.

Why it matter?

For VIP guests

They’re busy and likely multitasking. If they can’t grasp the essentials in seconds, they’re more likely to delay or abandon the form.

For the business

Every extra second of friction risks lower RSVP rates, leading to empty seats and wasted budget.


02.
Unclear Progress & Interaction Feedback

Step indicators are present but minimal. They don’t clearly signal where the user is, what’s next, or how long it will take.

Interaction feedback (e.g., dropdown selection) feels outdated and lacks clear confirmation until the very end.

Icon Here

Why it matter?

For VIP guests

They want to feel in control. Uncertainty about how many steps are left can cause drop-offs.

For the business

Incomplete forms mean lost RSVPs and more manual follow-up work for the event team.


03.
Unpolished, Generic Visual Design

UI feels like a generic template: black headers, default dropdowns, inconsistent spacing.

No brand presence, no visual cues that this is a premium or exclusive event.

Mobile-readiness is unclear (important for VIPs on the go).

Confusing RSVP form, wasted time, and frustrated event teams

The old RSVP form was static, overwhelming, and off-brand.
I reframed the experience around momentum: minimizing friction, maximizing clarity, and reinforcing exclusivity. It was a strategic redesign to reduce drop-off, shorten time-to-submit, and elevate brand perception.

Key upgrades

Guided, step-by-step flow

Time estimates up front

Modular branding system

Inline Validation

CTA hierarchy

Show-specific customization

Every improvement was tied to one question:



“Does this help VIPs complete faster and make the event feel worth showing up for?”

Why all this matters?

A better form = A stronger product

A better form = A stronger product

The RSVP form is the first impression of the entire platform.
The redesign was about showing VIPs and the market that INVITI knows how to deliver a premium experience.

Every improvement served a business goal:

Faster conversions
Fewer follow-ups
Stronger brand perception at the very first touchpoint

Because when your RSVP form feels this effortless, your product feels ready to scale and easy to trust.
