The prompt

Two ways to build this email in plain language. The fastest is Temway's in-editor assistant — open the chat drawer in the email editor and paste the recipe below. Or connect Claude or ChatGPT via Temway's MCP and paste it there; the agent builds the email step by step. Either way, adapt the copy and colors to your brand.

  • An email is a top-to-bottom stack of blocks — the recipe follows that order.
  • A [layout] step becomes a single image (great for heroes); everything else stays live text and links.
  • Theme the footer to match — the recipe's last step does exactly that.

Want this exact email? Click Use this template below to clone it into your workspace, then ask the in-editor assistant to rebrand it. Over MCP, tell your agent to clone the Temway share L986yYBIHRwdJptjD_LUZ and rebrand. For the full model, point an MCP agent at get_conceptemail-structure, layouts-vs-emails, design-recipes.

An agenda is a table, and the only thing that makes a table readable is a column that actually lines up. Tabular figures put every time on the same vertical axis, so a reader scans down the left edge and finds the session they care about without reading a single title.

Snapshot

  • Goal: publish a running order someone can scan for the one session they came for.
  • Audience & tone: registered attendees. Informational and exact — the agenda is the content.
  • Palette: page #ecedee · container #ffffff · text #111827 / #6c7079 (muted) · accent #16223d
  • Font: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif
  • Artwork: none — fully native blocks.

Build recipe

Each step is one block in the flat stack, top to bottom. [native] = a real email block. [layout] = a free-form layout embedded as a single image.

  14. [native] Footer rule — divider. short (96px) rule, 1px, color #e9e9e9.
  15. [native] Footer social — social. Icon row, social.color #16223d, style circle-outline, center.

Make it yours

  1. Repeat the agenda as native text lines. This is the single most important step: an agenda that only exists as an image cannot be read aloud, searched, or pasted into a calendar.
  2. Keep the two versions in sync. An artwork agenda that disagrees with the text one will be the thing people arrive by.
  3. Six slots is the comfortable maximum for the artwork. For a longer day, use the artwork for the morning and text for the rest.

About events & invitations email templates

An event email carries a deadline no other category has: the event date itself, which only gets more urgent as it approaches. Early-bird pricing, RSVP mechanics, and an escalating countdown all follow directly from that one fixed point.

See all events & invitations templates →

How far in advance should an event invitation email send?

For the early-bird templates below, four to six weeks ahead with a distinct early-bird deadline works well; the last-tickets templates are built for a final push in the 48-72 hours before the event.

What has to be in an event invitation besides the date?

Date, time (with timezone if remote), location or join link, and one clear RSVP action — the templates below keep those four elements above the fold before any agenda detail.

Can I use one of these templates for a virtual event instead of an in-person one?

Yes — swap the location line for a join link and timezone. The layout and countdown mechanics work the same for webinars and workshops as for in-person galas or conferences.

Do the event templates support a countdown timer?

Yes — several below use Temway's countdown block, which renders as a live countdown in supporting email clients and a static fallback everywhere else.
