Our tips
Three facts, no more
What, where, when: an invitation that fits on one screen gets an answer faster. Logistics can follow the first yes.
Ask for a dated reply
“Let me know before Thursday” beats “keep me posted”. A clear deadline saves you chasing and leaves time to book.
Your frequently asked questions
Is a text invitation taken seriously?
Among friends, or at short notice, absolutely: it is quick and read straight away. For a wedding or a formal event, the text announces and the printed card makes it official.
What if nobody replies?
One reminder, two days before the deadline, is enough. Pushing further turns an invitation into pressure, which does the evening no favours.
