I might be wrong, but at first glance, it looks like everyone involved needs to install Hipvite to organize and event.

If I am correct in thinking this, I would advise you to make an SMS fallback. It's difficult to organize an event with friends if they all need iPhones to install the same app.

Apparently they do send a text link.
