Wedding reception invitations FAQs
How do I make customized wedding reception invitations?
It's easy to make your wedding reception invitations as special as the happy couple!
- Choose the right template: Start by browsing our variety of wedding reception invitation templates to find one that speaks to you. If you're looking to celebrate a new chapter as the leaves begin to turn, our fall wedding reception invitations will work well. If you want to celebrate the bloom of your new life, our floral wedding reception invitations have everything you need. And if you want an extra special invitation, 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 wedding reception invitations pop. (Our data shows that people who use our Premium tools get more RSVPs!)
- Add in relevant details: Be sure to include the date, time and location of your wedding reception. You should also include the dress code and details on RSVPs.
Once you have finished your wedding invitations, 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.
What should I write in my wedding reception invitations?
Writing a wedding reception invitation depends on a few variables like whether some of your invitees attended the actual ceremony, the tone of the event, and gifting requests. If you're sending out wedding reception invitations to people who were not invited to the ceremony something like “[Spouse name X] and [Spouse name Y] were wed in an intimate ceremony on [Wedding date]. Join us for a night celebrating their love as they embark on a new journey.” If the tone is more casual, something like “Come party with [X and Y] as they celebrate their new life together,” will work well. Regardless of what you choose, keeping things light, personal and in-line with your tone can do wonders.
Who should I invite to my wedding reception?
A wedding reception tends to be the biggest party event at the wedding. Where the ceremony can be more intimate, due to personal preferences or seating limitations, a wedding reception can include the extended circles of the newlyweds. Friends, acquaintances, extended family members, coworkers and college roommates are often invited to the wedding reception.
What are popular themes for wedding receptions?
There are so many amazing themes to choose from for wedding receptions, from classic to super trendy. Some of the most popular reception themes include:
- Classic themes: Some themes like rustic, regal, formal and garden are timeless, and can make any wedding reception feel out of a storybook.
- Modern: Themes like cottagecore, desert, Bohemian and eco-friendly are super trendy and can add a nice modern feel to your special day.
- Alternative: For those couples who like to do things their own way, themes like nautical, celestial, gothic and masquerade can add some spice to your wedding day.
No matter what you choose, Evite's wide variety of wedding reception invitations have everything you need to make your wedding reception as special as possible.
When should I send wedding reception invitations?
We recommend sending out wedding reception invitations 6–8 weeks in advance—around the same time you should be sending out all your other wedding invitations. This is helpful for guests who may have to make travel arrangements, and allows you to get an accurate guest list as soon as possible. Evite's blog also has a helpful wedding timeline to help you figure out everything you need to do before the big day.
