Tips for your reception invitation

  • Say whether dinner is served, since many guests come to a reception straight from work.
  • If the reception is in a different city from the wedding, send it as its own card so the two dates and venues are not mixed up.
  • Put the hosts' names above the couple, since a reception card usually comes from the groom's parents.
  • Give a start time and a rough end time, like 7:30 to 11 pm, so elders can plan the drive home.

Questions people ask

Who usually hosts the wedding reception in India?

Traditionally the groom's family hosts the reception, often a day or two after the wedding and in their own city. Many couples now host it together, so put whichever names are actually inviting.

How far ahead should reception invitations go out?

Send them with the wedding cards, or at least 3 weeks before the reception. If the reception is the only function some guests attend, give them a month.

Can I make a reception card free without signing up?

Yes. Reception cards on AdGraam are free to make and download, and you do not need an account or an app.

Is a WhatsApp reception invitation enough?

For friends, colleagues and most relatives, a WhatsApp card is normal now. For elders and close family, a printed card or a personal call still shows more respect.

Can I print reception cards at a local shop?

Yes. The PDF is a printable 5 x 7 inch card, so any printer can run it on card stock. Ask for one test print to check the colours first.

Can the reception card have Hindi and English together?

Yes. Any line typed in Hindi switches to a Devanagari font while English lines keep theirs, so one card can carry both.
