Summer Party Invitations

There's a quiet beauty to the summer party. But a summer party can only happen when one first sends their summer party invitations. And with Evite's variety of free and Premium summer party invitations, you can find everything you need, whether you are hoping to make your guests' mouths water with our backyard BBQ invitations or to feel the cool waters of summer with our backyard pool party invitations.

Evite's customization tools make creating the perfect summer party invitations as simple as relaxing by the pool. Choose the right template: Start by browsing our variety of summer party invitation templates to find one that speaks to you. If you want to celebrate another trip around the sun for a special person in your life, our backyard birthday party invitations should do the trick. If you want to share a meal with your friends and family, our backyard picnic invitations will be perfect. And if you want your invitation to be extra special, you can upload your own design! Personalize your invitation: With our Premium customization tools you can choose the envelope, liner, stamps and stickers to make your summer party pop. Add in relevant details: Be sure to include the date, time and location of your summer party invitations. If you'd like your guests to bring food, drinks, supplies, etc., you can make a What to Bring list, letting them know exactly what they need.

Once you have finished your summer party invitation, you can send it 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.

It can be tricky to tell your invitees that you need their help to make your summer party as fun as possible, but with Evite's advice, you can find the perfect words! Requests for food: "We will provide hamburgers and hot dogs, but please bring your favorite side dish to share!" Requests for drinks: "Beer and wine are provided, but if you'd like to show off your mixology skills, feel free to bring your own cocktail ingredients!" Requests for games: "We have a few games planned, but if you want to bring a football, soccer ball or any other gaming equipment, feel free to bring your own to add to the fun!"

If you have more specific requests, you can use Evite to make a What to Bring list so your guests know exactly what you want.
