You have an important event coming up, and you’re excited! After months of planning and hard work, everything is finally ready. Except for one last thing…
You’ve heard from several distant family members that they’d really like to attend – but they just can’t make it. One is recovering at home from knee surgery; another is stationed overseas; and the eldest is too frail to travel.
Don’t worry. With TikiLIVE, they can all still be there.
Live Stream the Important Big Events…
You want all of your family to be there for the big events, but if they can’t travel and attend in person, you can still invite them to attend remotely. They can witness the proceedings live, no matter where they are.
- Weddings – At many weddings, the photographer is hired to document the festivities takes pictures during the ceremony. Many wedding photographers shoot video, too.

Now they can – with TikiLIVE, it’s easy for you to live stream the commencement exercises and let those who can’t be there share in the happy day.
- Golden Wedding Anniversaries – 50 years together! Time to celebrate. Many 50th wedding anniversaries include a dinner, followed by speakers reminiscing about the married couple. You can broadcast the event to distant family members by using TikiLIVE to live stream all the happy moments shared by the speakers.
