Mother's Day Party Invitation Wording: Samples and Tips

Read the full article

Video transcript

A Mother's Day party invitation is a short note that tells guests who the party honors, when and where it happens, and how to reply.

Start with the guest of honor, because that is the reason for the gathering. Short invitations are easier to read on a phone, so put the date and place in the first two lines.

Playful wording uses short sentences and a light joke. Heartfelt wording adds one sentence about what Mom means to the family.

Every invitation needs five parts: the guest of honor, the date, the place, the time and a way to reply. A single reply link lets guests answer in one place.

Send the invitation as soon as the date and place are final. Keep the reminder short, such as: Just checking in so we can plan the food.

Ask for a yes or no and give a date that leaves you enough time to plan. Guests reply faster when the request is specific.

If you want the date, place and reply link in one place, create your invitation on our website.
