The group chat is not an RSVP system
Most birthday invitations now go out as a message in a group chat, and most of the replies get lost in it. A link fixes that. The page holds the details so nobody asks "what time again?", and the reply form sends every answer to you, not to forty other people.
What goes on a birthday invitation page
- Whose birthday it is and which one, if you want to say.
- The date, the start time and when it ends.
- The venue with a map, or the address of the house.
- Dress code, theme, or "bring a bottle".
- Whether children are welcome, and whether there will be food.
- A reply-by date so you can book the table or order the cake.
Replies that tell you what you need
Ask for a yes or no and how many are coming. If you are feeding people, add a dietary note. For a surprise party, say so on the page and in the reply form so nobody spoils it in the family group.
For children's parties
Put the drop-off and pick-up times, whether parents stay, allergies, and a note on presents if you have a view. Parents reply from the school gate in the time it takes to read it.
Designs that suit a birthday
Quiet for a grown-up dinner, Editorial for a big photo of the birthday person, Vogue for a milestone birthday that deserves a magazine cover. Any colour you like.
What it costs
£40 one-off, VAT included, for any number of guests, live for a year. That is the launch offer; the usual price is £59. Nothing to pay until you send it.
Good questions
- Can guests reply without an app?
- Yes. They open the link in their phone’s browser and reply. Nothing to install.
- Can I keep a surprise party secret?
- Yes. Write the page for the guests, not the birthday person, and send individual links rather than a group post if you are worried about it being seen.
- Is there a limit on guests?
- No. One price covers any number of guests.
