Do you have a sketch as to how this'll work (ie. does it entail BTLE or do you have something else in mind)?

Form an implementation standpoint, here's a sketch:

Each phone is advertising via standard BTLE in the background. The inviting phone is in the foreground and so can receive the adverts. Resolving advert to identity can be done by either connecting via BLE and reading a characteristic, or a combinatorial approach with advertised services.
