Engagement invitations

An engagement is the first celebration of two families coming together. Whether it is an intimate dinner, a khutba at home or a party with friends, the invitation sets the tone — design one in Arabic, English or both, and have it on every guest's phone the same day.

A few designs to start from

Every design works in Arabic and in English — one of these is in the other language.

Romantic, before the grandeur of the wedding

Engagement cards lean lighter than wedding cards — blush and magenta florals, marble, pearls and feathers. Keep the grandest designs for the wedding itself, or start the set now and carry the same look through to the wedding invitation.

What to include

Who is hosting, the couple's names, the date, time and venue, and an RSVP line. If the party is for the ladies only, or for the two families only, say so on the card — guests appreciate knowing before they reply.

Invitation wording ideas

Copy any of these into the studio and change the names and details.

Questions

How far ahead should engagement invitations be sent?

Two to four weeks is typical for an engagement party. For a small family gathering, a week or two can be enough.

Can guests reply to the invitation online?

Yes. Send it through Invited and every guest gets the card on WhatsApp with buttons to accept or decline, and you see the replies in one live list.

Is it free to design an engagement invitation?

Yes. Many designs are free and download without a watermark, and changing fonts is always free. Premium designs, gold calligraphy, finishes and moving cards come with a Design plan from AED 15 for 30 days — one payment, no subscription.

How do I send my engagement invitation?

Download it as a picture (or a video, for moving designs) and share it anywhere. Or use Send invitations: upload the card, and Invited sends it to every guest on WhatsApp and shows you who is coming.
