In every family, shared experiences create the strongest bonds. From weddings and reunions to virtual game nights and birthday parties, events bring us together in meaningful ways. At Affinite, we believe these moments should be easy to plan, fun to experience, and unforgettable to relive. That’s why we created the Events feature — a powerful, yet intuitive tool designed to help you host, organize, and celebrate family gatherings of any kind.
Whether your event is large or small, online or in-person, Affinite makes planning and participation feel effortless and enjoyable.
🎉 Create the Perfect Event — Your Way
Affinite’s event creation form is simple yet robust, giving you control over every detail. Start by naming your event and writing a brief description to get your family excited. Choose between an Onsite Event (in a physical location) or an Online Event (like a Zoom party or webinar), then specify the location, start, and end time.
Want to make your event visually appealing? Upload an event image that gives it personality — a family crest, old photo, or even a fun theme graphic.
And if you need to plan out the day, Affinite’s Activities Section is where you shine.
📋 Activity Planning That Keeps You on Track
Big events often have multiple components — brunch meetups, group games, talent shows, or speaker sessions. With Affinite, you can break your event into step-by-step activities using our Activity Planner.
Each activity includes:
- A clear description of what’s happening.
- Start and end times to avoid confusion.
- An optional link (perfect for online games or Zoom calls).
- An optional cost field to keep track of budgets — whether it’s "$20 per ticket" or "Free for everyone."
As you build out the schedule, Affinite will help calculate the total estimated cost of the event, making budgeting a breeze for hosts and co-planners.
📸 Capture the Magic in the Event Gallery
Events go by in a flash, but memories last forever — especially when you capture them. Affinite includes a shared event gallery where attendees can upload photos from the event. It’s your family’s private digital album — a place to revisit special moments, see snapshots you might have missed, and celebrate together all over again.
Unlike social media where your memories can get lost in a sea of noise, Affinite’s galleries are family-focused and secure, keeping your moments in the family circle where they belong.
👥 Easy Guest Invitations — Inside or Outside the Family Tree
Not all guests are on Affinite — and that’s okay. With our Guest Invitation System, you can easily invite anyone:
- Email Invitations – Simply enter the guest’s email address and send them a direct invite.
- Shareable Links – Generate an invitation link to share via text, social media, or any other messaging platform.
This flexibility ensures your event is inclusive and accessible, whether your cousin is on Affinite or your aunt prefers traditional email.
💬 Connect with the Community in the Event Forum
Once your event is published, your family can jump into the event discussion forum to chat, ask questions, or suggest ideas before the big day. It’s a lightweight message board built right into the event page — no group texts, no scattered messages, no confusion.
Use it to:
- Coordinate carpooling or hotel bookings
- Share last-minute updates
- Build anticipation and hype
- Poll your family for menu options or outfit themes
