Turn your engagement photos or a short script into a beautiful save-the-date video in just a few minutes. No camera, no editing software, no printed cards needed. Share news of your big day with loved ones over text, email, or social media.
Key features of the Save the Date Video Maker
Enter Your Details, Get a Finished Video
Add your names, date, and venue, then launch your video project. HeyGen creates a complete animation with scenes, transitions, narration, and timing, while AI tools manage the pacing. The text to video engine converts just a couple of sentences into a share-ready clip, without hours of editing.

Customisable Save the Date Video Templates
Choose a save-the-date video template from a gallery of beautiful designs for weddings, engagement parties, and milestone events, ranging from classic and rustic to modern and playful. Customise fonts, colours, and layouts in the intuitive drag-and-drop editor until every scene matches your wedding theme perfectly.

Narration in Your Own Cloned Voice
Record a 30-second sample and AI Voice Cloning delivers your heartfelt message in a voice guests recognise as yours. No microphone anxiety, no retakes. Prefer not to record? Choose from dozens of built-in voices in warm, romantic, or playful styles.

Animate Your Engagement Photos
Upload stills or footage from your engagement shoot and the platform sequences them into moving scenes with transitions, animation, and text overlays for your names and date. Mix in stock videos whenever you want extra scenery, with no manual editing required.

Captions, Music, and Ready-to-Use Exports
Use the essential tools in our video editor to fine-tune audio, scene timing, and pacing, then generate accurate captions with the subtitle generator so your announcement is easy to read even with the sound off. Export in HD as an MP4 sized for text, email, Instagram, or WhatsApp.


Printed save the date invitations cost money and usually get thrown away. Create your wedding save the date video, pick a theme, and send a polished invitation video that guests can keep on their phones and easily forward to family.

Announcing the engagement on Instagram or TikTok usually means spending hours in an editing app. Write one short message, add your own creative touch, and post a memorable vertical reveal on the same day you say yes.

A 50th birthday or retirement party needs guests to be booked months in advance. Turn the guest of honour’s photos into an unforgettable announcement that clearly mentions the date and city, so family living far away can plan their travel early.

Destination weddings usually need eight to twelve months’ notice. Send a video that showcases the venue, clearly mentions the travel dates, and links guests to your wedding website while flight tickets are still reasonably priced.

Editing a slideshow manually means constantly adjusting timing and transitions. Upload your shoot, and image to video will turn every photo into smooth scenes with romantic music and a closing highlight of your names and the date.

Marking 25 or 50 years together deserves more than just a group message. Bring together footage from the original wedding day with photos from today, add a heartfelt narration, and share an announcement with your guests that also becomes a cherished keepsake.
How the save the date video maker works
HeyGen's video maker is simple to use: go from event details to share-ready video invitations in four steps, using a faceless video workflow and no editing software, without shooting any footage.
Choose a wedding or event design. Layout, transitions, and music pacing are pre-set for you.
Type your names, date, and venue, then upload your engagement photos or short video clips.
Pick a narrator or clone your own voice, then choose a soundtrack that suits the mood.
Download your HD video and share it via text, email, WhatsApp, or post it on social media.
A save the date video maker turns your event details into a short announcement video that you send instead of a printed invitation card. You type in your names, date, and venue, choose a template, and the AI puts together the scenes, narration, and music into a finished clip.
Yes, because every element belongs to the bridal couple: your photos, your wording, your music, and narration in your own cloned voice. The AI manages the assembly and timing, not the message, so the video feels like it is truly yours rather than a generic template.
Upload the photos, choose a template, and the platform sequences them into scenes with transitions and text overlays for your names and date. Add music and narration, then export. Most couples create a first version in under ten minutes, no professional editor required.
Include your names, the date, and the city or venue, along with a note that formal wedding invitations will be sent closer to your special day. If you are unsure how to phrase it, the video script generator creates a warm message that you can edit until it sounds just like the two of you.
Most save the date apps are template editors, so you still have to arrange every scene manually. HeyGen works as a text-to-video engine: it creates the entire video invite from your written details, narrates it in your cloned voice, and can localise it for guests overseas.
Video gets watched and shared in ways that cards do not. Agency Videoimagem saw up to a 3x increase in engagement across its personalised video campaigns built with HeyGen, and a save-the-date invite carries the same personal pull.
Yes. Create your save the date video online for free: the free plan lets you build with templates and AI voices and export your first free video to test different styles. Paid plans start at $24 per month when you need longer runtimes and more exports.
Export the finished video as an MP4 and attach it on WhatsApp, iMessage, or email, or share a link when the file is large. You can also download it as a GIF, since GIFs autoplay inside most email clients and social feeds.
Six to eight months before your upcoming wedding is usually ideal, and eight to twelve months for destination weddings so that guests can plan and book their travel. Since a video is sent instantly, you avoid all the printing and postal delays completely.
Yes. Create it once and the AI video translator generates versions in 175+ languages with matched lip sync and voice, so grandparents in Seoul and cousins in São Paulo can each hear your announcement in a language they are comfortable with.
Yes. If your announcement is already complete, AI dubbing can replace the original speech with multilingual voiceovers while preserving the speaker's tone and matching the new dialogue to the facial movements.
Yes. For a presenter-led invitation, an AI spokesperson can deliver your script on screen with synchronised speech, gestures, and expressions while your event details remain the focus.
