Open House Invitations

An open house is a perfect way to bring a community together for a particular purpose, whether you're looking to bring in new clients for a house on the market, to give parents a chance to talk to teachers and school administrators or to throw a party celebrating your child's graduation. With Evite's selection of free and Premium open house invitations, you can find everything you need to start your open house right.

Start by selecting an open house invitation that matches your party best. Then, with Evite's Premium tools, you can customize the envelope, liner, stickers, stamps and backgrounds to make your open house invitation all your own (our data shows that Premium invitations get more RSVPs!). Make sure to include the date, time and location of your open house. Once you have finished your invitations, you can send them to your guests right from our Invitation Maker via email, text or shareable link (as a Premium option). Then, using Evite's RSVP-tracking tools, you can watch guest responses and send direct messages.

An open house invitation should fit the needs of your particular open house. For more professional events like real estate, school and business open houses, you can write "Join us as we open [organization name's] doors to the public," or "Join us for a special open house at [property address]." For more casual events like a graduation open house party, you can do something more fun like "Join us as we send [name] off to college" or "Pop in for a day celebrating [name's] big accomplishment!"

Start by figuring out your guest list, which should be as wide as possible, especially for real estate and graduation open houses. Then, you should consider offering a wide range of small bites for your guests, so they can eat while they walk around. Finally, you should plan a few activities or small events to keep your guests engaged and give them opportunities to talk to the hosts. For professional events such as an open house for a real estate listing, you should also consider sending thank you eCards to your guests after the event to leave an extra-positive impression.

And if you have other big events coming up, like a fundraiser, meeting or business event, Evite has everything you need to get started. With Evite Pro, you get unlimited access to Premium products to create invitations and eCards for all types of celebrations.

Evite offers a number of open house invitations for any occasion. If you're looking to bring in prospective buyers to your real estate open house, Evite has invitations for you.

And if you want to throw a more casual party celebrating your child's graduation, Evite's graduation open house party invitations will be perfect.

Evite recommends sending your open house invitation 3–4 weeks in advance so your guests (and you) have plenty of time to make the proper arrangements.
