A design for each holiday

There's a Christmas design with Santa's sleigh over a snowy village, a Thanksgiving wreath of autumn leaves that works just as well for a Friendsgiving, a Hanukkah card with a menorah and dreidels, and gold champagne coupes for New Year's Eve.

For a party that isn't tied to one holiday, like an office party, a neighborhood open house or a January get-together, the winter design has snowy pines and a snowman and no Christmas imagery at all. Halloween and the Fourth of July cover the rest of the year.

Hosting a different kind of gathering? Describe it and AI designs a card for it. Previews are free, and keeping one costs the same as a ready-made design.

What to put on a holiday party invitation

  • What kind of party it is: a dinner, an open house or a night out
  • The date, with a start and an end time, especially for an open house where guests come and go
  • The address, plus a parking note if the street will be busy
  • How to RSVP, and the date you need replies by
  • What to bring, for a potluck, a cookie exchange or a gift swap
  • Whether kids, partners or plus-ones are welcome, and any dress code, from ugly sweaters to black tie

The card holds a headline, a short message, the date and time, the location and an RSVP line. A gift-swap spending limit or a dish sign-up fits better in the text or email you send the card with.

When to send it

December fills up faster than any other month. Send Christmas, Hanukkah and office holiday party invitations three to four weeks ahead, and as early as mid-November for a party on a December weekend.

Thanksgiving and Friendsgiving invitations can go out two to three weeks before. New Year's Eve plans get made early, so aim for the first week of December. Halloween and Fourth of July parties are usually fine at two to three weeks.

Ask for replies about a week before the party, or earlier if you're ordering food or booking a venue.

Print it or send it

Every card comes as a print-ready 5×7 PDF and a high-resolution JPG. A 5×7 card fits a standard A7 envelope, so printed invitations can go out with your holiday mail, and the JPG is ready to text or email to everyone else.

Turn on the free RSVP page while you make the card and guests reply online with how many adults and kids are coming. Only you see the guest list.

Questions, answered

How do you word a holiday open house invitation?
Give a window instead of a start time, and say guests can come and go, like "Drop by any time between 2 and 6." Name it an open house in the headline or message, so guests know they are not expected for the whole afternoon and can fit you in between other parties.
Should a holiday party invitation say "Merry Christmas" or "Happy Holidays"?
Match the party. A Christmas party among family and friends can say Merry Christmas. For an office party, a neighborhood gathering or a guest list of mixed traditions, "Happy Holidays" or "Season's Greetings" welcomes everyone, and a winter design without Christmas imagery fits the same spirit.
Is there a holiday party invitation that isn't for Christmas?
Yes. The winter design shows snowy pine trees and a snowman with no Christmas imagery, so it suits an office party, a winter open house or a January get-together. There are also designs for Hanukkah, Thanksgiving, New Year's Eve, Halloween and the Fourth of July.
Can I use these invitations for an office holiday party?
Yes. Change the wording to name the company or team, and use the message for details like a dress code or whether partners are invited. Email the JPG to the team, or print the PDF to post in the office.
Are these holiday party invitations free?
Personalizing them is free: change every word, font and color on screen. Downloading the finished card costs $2.99, or $5.99 for three credits to spend on any designs. Each card includes an unwatermarked high-resolution JPG and a print-ready 5×7 PDF, and you can print as many copies as you need at no extra charge.
How do guests RSVP to a holiday party?
Turn on the free RSVP page while you make the card and you get a private link to send with the invitation. Guests enter their name, whether they're coming, and how many adults and kids they're bringing, and only you can see the replies. The RSVP page has to be turned on when you make the card; it can't be added afterwards.
