What are templates?

Everything you need to know about using our pre-designed event templates.

Written by Daniella Bondar

Designing an event from scratch can take time , so Effi offers a set of pre-designed templates to help you get started fast. Each template is built around a specific type of event and comes preloaded with the elements you’re most likely to need, like polls, meters, QR codes, banners, and more.

Templates give you a solid foundation, so all you need to do is customize the look and make it your own.


What’s included in a template?

Each template comes with a thoughtfully designed layout and a starter set of interactive elements. This can include:

  • Polls

  • Meters

  • QR codes

  • Banners

  • Overlays

  • Scenes arranged for your event style

You can edit, remove, or add anything you like. Every template is fully customizable.

Are templates customizable?

Yes — completely.

You can change any element, swap branding, update colors and styles, add new scenes, or rebuild the entire layout using the template as a starting point.


Who should use templates?

Templates are great if you want to:

  • Get a professional-looking event set up quickly

  • Avoid the heavy lifting of starting from a blank canvas

  • Use suggested layouts and elements tailored to your event type

  • Maintain consistency across recurring events

💡 Want to build your event mostly from scratch but still need a little inspiration?
Effi’s templates aren’t all-or-nothing. You can drop individual scene templates into any event you’re working on. Looking for something specific — like a scene with a poll, a two-guest layout, or a certain design style? Just use the filters to quickly find exactly what you need.
