SharePoint Calendar Reminders

Question

I know there is lots out there on doing this but I can't seem to get them working so i'm hoping someone could post step-by-step instructions on how to do this.

I'm looking to create an alert system within SharePoint so when a Change is added into the calendar for (e.g. 06/06/2016) the day before (e.g. 05/06/2016) there will be an e-mail alert sent out to X@123.com, Z@123.com

Thanks in advance

Create a new workflow in SharePoint Designer that runs when a new item is created. Use the Add Time to Date action to subtract 1 day from the meeting day to get your reminder date. Then use Pause until Date using your reminder date. After the pause, use Send Email action.
