AI wedding invitation video: prompts and a step by step plan

Step 1: Collect the details and the yes

Before you write a single prompt, collect:

• Both names, exactly as the family wants them written, in English and in Hindi or the regional script if needed
• Every function with date, time and venue (haldi, mehendi, sangeet, wedding, reception)
• The family names that should appear, and in what order
• A colour or style preference (traditional, pastel, royal, minimal)
• A contact line for RSVP

Then get a clear yes on how the couple will appear. If you plan to use real photos of the couple to create an illustration or to animate, ask both of them and the families. Never use photos of other guests or relatives without their permission. Many families prefer a stylised illustration or a no faces approach, which also avoids the uncanny look AI faces can have.

Step 2: Plan the shots

Write a shot list before generating anything. It keeps the video short and saves credits.

Step 3: Six prompts you can copy

These are original prompts with Indian settings. They work as a starting point for Veo 3, Kling or Seedance. Check the model's current limits for length and format. For WhatsApp and Instagram, keep vertical 9:16; switch to 16:9 for a YouTube or TV screen version.

Opening shot, warm and traditional:

Close-up of a row of brass diyas being lit one by one on a marigold decorated entrance, rose petals scattered on a carved wooden floor, soft focus string lights behind, warm golden light, slow push-in, gentle shehnai melody, festive and graceful mood, vertical 9:16

Symbolic couple shot, no faces:

Two hands, one with intricate bridal mehendi and red glass bangles, the other a groom's hand with a simple gold ring and a red sacred thread on the wrist, gently holding each other over a brass plate of rose petals, soft window light, shallow depth of field, very slow camera drift, romantic and calm mood, vertical 9:16

Haldi:

A bright courtyard decorated with yellow marigold strings and mango leaves, brass bowls of turmeric paste on a low wooden stool, sunlight filtering through the flower strings, light petals falling, slow tracking shot along the decor, joyful dhol in the distance, vertical 9:16

Mehendi:

Overhead shot of a mehendi cone drawing a delicate paisley design on a palm resting on a floral cushion, colourful dupattas and small lanterns around, soft afternoon light, smooth slow rotation, light folk music, cheerful mood, vertical 9:16

Mandap at night:

Wide shot of a wedding mandap at night decorated with white jasmine and red roses, hanging brass lamps glowing, sacred fire burning softly in the centre, fairy lights in the trees, slow crane up revealing the whole setting, warm saffron and deep blue tones, peaceful and grand mood, vertical 9:16

Closing shot with space for text:

Rose and marigold petals falling slowly in front of a palace style venue entrance lit with warm lights at dusk, camera static at eye level, plenty of empty sky at the top of the frame, soft instrumental music, elegant and happy mood, vertical 9:16

Why these work: each prompt names one subject, one action, one camera move, the light and the sound. The closing shot asks for empty space on purpose, so your text has room.

Step 4: Edit, text and music

• Add all text in the editor. AI models often misspell or distort letters. Names, dates and venues must be typed by you and checked by the family.
• Pick two fonts at most. One decorative for names, one simple for details.
• Music you have the rights to. A popular film song can get the video muted or blocked on some platforms. Use licensed, royalty free or your own recorded music.
• Hold each text card long enough to read. Elders will read slowly. If they cannot read the venue, the invite has failed.
• Export a light file for WhatsApp. A large file may get compressed badly. Export at a sensible size and test by sending it to yourself.

Common mistakes

• Spelling errors in names. Get the final text approved in writing on WhatsApp by someone from each family.
• Too many shots. Guests watch on phones. Seven shots and under a minute is usually plenty.
• Realistic AI faces of the couple without asking. Always ask, and offer an illustration or no faces option.
• Mixing styles. A cartoon haldi and a photoreal mandap look like two different invites. Keep one style.
• Forgetting cultural details. Rituals, colours and symbols differ across communities. Ask the family what fits.
• Not labelling when shared publicly. For a private family invite a label is a choice. If you post it publicly or use it to promote your editing service, add "Made with AI".
