Dinner party invitations
A small guest list with big details: allergies, who's bringing wine, and exactly how many chairs you need.
Free to design · $1.99 to publish · Guests RSVP without an account
For a dinner party, every seat counts. You need firm answers rather than maybes, and you need to know about allergies before you shop.
Ask dietary questions right on the RSVP, use a sign-up sheet if guests are bringing dishes, and remind anyone who hasn't answered.

Dinner Party invitation FAQ
How far in advance should you invite people to a dinner party?
One to three weeks is usual for a casual dinner. Give more notice for a holiday dinner, a weekend date, or a menu that requires ordering ingredients in advance.
How do I ask guests about food allergies without it being awkward?
Make it part of the RSVP rather than a separate message. A simple optional question — "Any allergies or dietary needs?" — is normal and saves a last-minute menu change.
