Hello, Microsoft 365 Insiders! I’m Aaron Liu, a Product Manager on the Forms team. My team and I have been hard at work, leveraging AI, to help you create unforgettable invitations (and tracking responses) for next event – whether it is a cozy dinner by the fireplace or by the pool, or a life event such as a wedding or a graduation party.

When you are ready to plan your next event, the winning combination of Microsoft Forms and AI, is there to ensure that sending invitations is a breeze.

With a plethora of themes and cover pages at your disposal, all you need to input are the important details such as date, time, location. You can also choose to add background music to put your guests in the mood and hint at what’s to come.
