Happy Hour Invitations

Grab some friends, turn on the margarita machine (or head to your local pub) and get ready to blow off some steam after a long day of work (AKA, enjoy a happy hour). With our selection of free and Premium happy hour invitations, you can find everything you need to get the party started.

Get your happy hour started off right with Evite! Choose the right template: Start by selecting an invitation that fits the tone of your event just right. If you want to have some fun after work with some colleagues, check out our after work happy hour invitations. If you're looking to kick off the holidays with some eggnog, try out our holiday happy hour invitations. And if you want something more personal, you can upload your own design right to our Invitation Maker. Personalize your invitation: Once you have selected your theme, you can use our Premium tools to customize the envelope, liner, stamps, stickers and backgrounds to make the happy hour invitation your own. Fill in the details: Add the date, time and location of your happy hour. And if you want them to BYOB, make that clear on the invitation.

Then, you can send the invites to your guests via email, text, or shareable link, for Premium users, right from Evite's platform. We'll track your RSVPs for you with our easy-to-use system, and remind your guests leading up to happy hour.

Aside from the basic details like the date, time and location, you should also include a fun little message to get your guests excited. Evite has some ideas to get you started: "Shake off the workday stress and join us for an after work happy hour!"; "Join us pour a fun happy hour!"; and "Come kick back and have a drink with us at our happy hour!"

A good rule of thumb is to keep in mind that it's still a work event. If you want to drink, make sure that you pace yourself and know your limits—you don't want to embarrass yourself or your company. You should also gently remind your guests to not overindulge. If one of your guests can't drink, make sure that they feel comfortable being around people who do and that you go somewhere that they can still enjoy.

And if you have more professional events coming up, check out our professional events invitations, cocktail party invitations and holiday office party invitations.

We recommend sending out cocktail party invitations 2–3 weeks in advance, so that your guests have time to make proper arrangements like transportation, childcare, etc.
