Tips for better invitations
Use proper salutations for formal events (Ceremony & Reception, Rehearsal Dinner) — it sets the tone for wedding guests.
For inner-circle events (Hen/Stag, Rehearsal Dinner), drop the formality but stay organised — people expect directness from coordinators.
Always front-load the logistical details — guests check wedding invites on mobile while multitasking. Date, time, location first.
Be granular about dietary requirements — don't ask 'any dietary needs?' Ask for specific allergies, preferences, and restrictions separately.
Set a hard RSVP deadline with a business reason — 'we need numbers by [DATE] for catering and seating' is more motivating than just a date.
Clarify plus-one policy explicitly — wedding guests stress about this. Say who's invited and who isn't, and make it easy to add names.
For event-specific invites (bridal shower, hen/stag), mention what the activity actually is — guests need to know if they're signing up for physical activity, sitting dinner, or all-day commitment.
Use subject lines that speak to the wedding moment, not corporate templates — '[BRIDE]'s bridal shower' converts better than 'Join us for an event'.
Rehearsal dinner and hen/stag invites can be casual and direct — this is the inner circle, they know what to expect.
Always include an accessibility question — mobility, quiet spaces, dietary needs matter more in wedding contexts where people are travelling or stressed.
