Venue Details Email Template — Pill-Masked Bleed and Address Column

A venue-details email built on an off-centre 58/42 seam: a pill-masked photograph running off the left and bottom edges, with a pin, the address and a travel note in the right column.

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.

Over MCP, tell your agent to clone the Temway share zL0zIgfVbieHaW3NAJhYz and rebrand. For the full model, point an MCP agent at get_conceptemail-structure, layouts-vs-emails, design-recipes.

The email you send when everyone has a ticket and nobody knows where they are going. A pill-masked photograph of the building runs off the left and bottom edges, and the address sits in a column against an off-centre seam — 58/42, not down the middle, because a centred seam is a slide and an off-centre one is a composition.

Snapshot

  • Goal: get every attendee to the right door at the right time, with no second email.
  • Audience & tone: confirmed attendees. Practical and visual — a photograph of the entrance beats two sentences describing it.
  • Palette: page #eeeceb · container #ffffff · text #2a1408 / #776962 (muted) · accent #9a3412
  • Font: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif
  • Artwork: free-form layout hero — A colour field bleeding off the left and bottom edges on an off-centre 58/42 seam, with a pin, the venue name and the door time in the right column. Stands in for a photograph no image slot can ship finished., 600×420 canvas. Everything below it is native, selectable, clickable.

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.

  1. [layout] Layout hero — build a free-form composition (600×420) via create_layout + set_layout_content. A colour field bleeding off the left and bottom edges on an off-centre 58/42 seam, with a pin, the venue name and the door time in the right column. Stands in for a photograph no image slot can ship finished. Alt text: “The Round Chapel, 1 Glenarm Road, London E5 0LY — doors at 7pm”.
  2. [native] Headline — text. “Find your way to the venue”, fontSize: 36, color #2a1408, left.
  3. [native] Primary CTA — button. Label “Open in maps”, fill #9a3412, color #ffffff, shapeStyle: ‘0_1’, left.
  4. [native] Body copy 1 — text. “Doors at 7pm on Friday 14 November. The talk starts at 7:30 sharp.”, fontSize: 16, color #2a1408, left.
  5. [native] Body copy 2 — text. “The Round Chapel, 1 Glenarm Road, London E5 0LY.”, fontSize: 16, color #2a1408, left.
  6. [native] Rule — divider. short (96px) rule, 1px, color #e9e9e9.
  7. [native] Story title — text. “Getting there”, fontSize: 20, color #2a1408, left.
  8. [native] Body copy 3 — text. “Five minutes from Hackney Central, eight from Homerton.”, fontSize: 16, color #2a1408, left.
  9. [native] Body copy 4 — text. “Step-free access from Glenarm Road; the front steps are not.”, fontSize: 16, color #2a1408, left.
  10. [native] Body copy 5 — text. “No on-site parking — the Morning Lane car park is six minutes away.”, fontSize: 14, color #776962, left.
  11. [native] Fine print — text. “Lost on the night? Call the number in your ticket confirmation.”, fontSize: 12, color #776962, left.
  12. [native] Footer rule — divider. short (96px) rule, 1px, color #e9e9e9.
  13. [native] Footer social — social. Icon row, social.color #9a3412, style circle-outline, center.
  14. [native] Footer address — address. Postal address + unsubscribe, address.color #776962, address.fontFamily Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif, center.

Make it yours

  1. Photograph the actual entrance people need to find, not the prettiest side of the building. That is the whole reason this layout leads with a picture.
  2. Keep the native address line. The artwork’s address is pixels, and someone will want to paste it into a maps app.
  3. Recolor the burnt orange accent to your brand hue — the pin is the only fully saturated mark in the composition, so it moves with the brand and nothing else needs touching.

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.
