Event planning, simplified
Every detail,
in its place
Collect your RSVPs and build a wedding website. Shortlist venues, plan your styling, lay out the room and seat your guests. When everything's ready, order your signage and stationery from ectype with all your details already filled in. The free plan covers your RSVP website, seating and plenty more, and you can subscribe when you want the extras.

How it works
From invitations to printed signage, all in one place
Create your event
Enter your names, your date and your venue. Centrepiece sets up your personalised RSVP link and seating workspace in seconds.
Send invitation links
Add each guest or family as an invitation. Every one gets a unique code and a direct link. Send it by email or message, or print it as a QR code on your stationery.
Guests RSVP online
Your guests confirm attendance, enter their names and pick their dietary requirements from a dropdown. No typos, and no chasing paper.
Plan every detail
Compare venues side by side and build a style board to share with vendors. Seat your guests on the floor plan, write a minute-by-minute runsheet, and keep your vendors and budget in one place.
Order your stationery
Once your seating is final, order straight from ectype with your couple names, table count and confirmed guest list already filled in. Pick a design, choose your colours and check out. We make everything in-house and ship from Australia.

About ectype
A stationer's tools,
built with engineering precision
Centrepiece is made by ectype, a wedding stationery studio in Adelaide, South Australia. We started on Etsy, designing table numbers, place cards and seating charts for couples across Australia.
We built Centrepiece because every couple who ordered from us was still managing their guest list in a spreadsheet. That felt like a problem worth solving. It's designed, built and supported by the same small team that cuts and ships every sign.
