Before you send

What to write on a dinner party invitation

A good dinner invitation answers every question before guests ask. For ready-made lines, see dinner party invitation wording.

  • Host and occasion: “Dinner at Maya’s” or “Supper club: October edition.”
  • Date and time: when guests should arrive and when you’ll sit down to eat.
  • Address: plus parking, buzzer or apartment number.
  • Dress code: casual, smart casual or black tie.
  • Menu notes: a hint of what you’re cooking, written in your own words.
  • Dietary needs: ask guests to tell you about allergies when they reply.
  • RSVP-by date: so you can shop and set the table with confidence.
  • A warm welcome: record a short video message (up to 15 seconds on the free plan).

For repeat hosts

Why regular hosts send dinner invitations as a link

Head counts without the group-chat chaos. Guests RSVP on the invitation, and you see responses in RSVP tracking in the app instead of scrolling through threads.

No barrier for guests. Your guests don’t need the app or an account. They open the link in their browser, watch the invitation and reply.

Simple for the host. Send by SMS or paste the link into any chat. The free plan covers up to 3 events per month, which fits most monthly supper clubs.

A little ceremony. An animated invitation makes a weeknight dinner feel like an occasion, and a short video message from the host adds a personal touch.
