I want to be able to send out an email with information about a meeting, and
inside the email have a button that says "ADD TO CALENDAR" on which they can press and open a calendar invite. I have seen other emails with this option, but I don't know how they did this... |

Create the appointment in Outlook, then use the Forward as vCal or Forward as iCal command to include the appointment as an attachment in your message. Your message should instruct the user to double-click the file and open it.

What if I don't want to send it as an attachement? I want it to be in the
body of the email? I have seen this done by others... Also, I don't see the option to forward as vCal, only as iCal...

You cannot put such a button in the body of the mail message. Either forward as iCal or create a meeting request by using the Invite Recipients command on the appointment.
