Easy, Fill-in-the-blank Invitations

Whether you’re planning a bridal shower, birthday party, or Christmas bash, you probably know all too well how complicated party planning can be. You need to choose refreshments, entertainment, a guest list, a location, and so on. With so many decisions, wouldn’t it be nice if one part of your planning was easy?

The good news is if you want something simple the best choice are fill-in-the-blank invitations.

Why Fill-in-the-Blank Invitations?

Fill-in-the-Blank invitations are a good choice because they make your job easier. For one, you don’t have to decide on wording. When you purchase ordinary blank invitations, all that available empty space puts pressure on you to create some type of impressive wording. With fill-in-the-blank invitations, you only have to enter a few details and you’re done. You also don’t have to worry about leaving off any important details since the card outlines the details you need to enter, such as time/date and RSVP information.

You also have more options with fill-in-the-blank invitations. You can choose to use your laser or inkjet printer to add the details to most of them or you can simply handwrite the information. The choice is yours. With blank invitations, handwriting the information just isn’t a good choice.

Misconceptions about Fill-in-the-Blank Invitations

Some people mistakenly think that fill-in-the-blank invitations are not appropriate for grown-up events. That’s not the case. You can find some great choices. For a general party, the Colorful Cocktails invitation would be a great choice. Plus, its matching envelope covered in stripes of vivid colors definitely tells potential guests that they’re going to have a great time. Another great choice is the Party Dots invitation. It’s also colorful and can be used for almost any type of event.

You can also find fill-in-the-blank invitations designed specifically for certain party events, such as bridal showers and graduation parties.

Tips for Completing the Cards

When you’re preparing the invitations for mailing, make sure to fill in all of the information, particularly the RSVP section. Write the name and phone number of the RSVP contact in the appropriate section. You should also assign a particular date by which you need guests’ responses.

When you’re listing the time and date of the party, remember to be clear. For time, you should definitely add “am” or “pm” to the time. Even if it seems obvious, you want to make sure there is no confusion. Also, double check the date and day of the week of your party. Any type of confusion with the date of the party can be disastrous for your event.
