If you’re hosting Thanksgiving dinner this year, you’ll want to send out invitations that are both informative and inviting. Here are a few tips on how to word your invitations:
First, start with a warm and welcoming salutation. For example, you could write, “Dear Family and Friends,” or “To Our Valued Guests.” Next, state the purpose of the invitation. Be clear that you’re inviting your guests to Thanksgiving dinner. You could write, “We’re hosting Thanksgiving dinner this year,” or “You’re invited to join us for a Thanksgiving feast.”
Next, provide all the important details. Include the date, time, and location of the dinner. You should also mention what time guests should arrive. For example, you could write, “Thanksgiving dinner will be held on Thursday, November 24th, from 2:00pm to 6:00pm, at our home.” Be sure to also include your address and any other important details, such as whether guests need to RSVP or bring a dish.
