See the messagesHow to invite people by text
- Pick a message below and fill in the brackets. Keep it short enough to read without scrolling.
- Add one link with the details. A free invitation page holds the map, the time, the dress code and an RSVP button, so the text stays short.
- Send it one to one, or as a broadcast. A group text turns every reply into a notification for everyone. On iPhone and Android you can paste the same text to each person, and on WhatsApp a broadcast list sends it to each person privately.
- Send a reminder a week before to anyone who has not answered, and one the day before to everyone who said yes.

Free ways to send invitations by text
- Your own phone. Free, and nothing to sign up for. Fine for a few people, harder to track who replied.
- WhatsApp. Free, and a broadcast list sends to each person privately. Messages for it are on WhatsApp invitation messages.
- An invitation link with RSVP. One page with the details and yes and no buttons, sent by any app. Replies are counted for you, and you can download the guest list.
Evite and similar services can send invitations by text too. Check what their free plan includes: some show ads to your guests or keep features for paid plans.
Send one link with RSVP
TrackFlyer makes a free invitation page with the details, a map, a countdown, calendar buttons and an RSVP form that counts the replies. Paste its link at the end of any text above. No ads, and guests do not need an app.
See real examples: all invitation types, birthday, baby shower, housewarming, Christmas party, graduation.
Frequently asked questions
Is it OK to send invitations by text?
Yes, for most parties, showers, dinners and casual events. For a formal wedding, text a link to a full invitation page or send paper, so it feels like an event.
What should a text message invitation say?
What the event is, the day, date and time, the place, and how to reply by when. Put one link with the full details at the end.
How do I send a text invitation without a group chat?
Paste the same text to each person, or use a WhatsApp broadcast list, which sends it privately to each contact. Replies then come only to you.
How far ahead should I text an invitation?
Two to three weeks for most parties, three to four for showers and kids’ parties, and six weeks or more for anything people travel to. Send a reminder a day or two before.
How do I get people to RSVP to a text?
Give a reply-by date and one way to answer. A link with yes and no buttons gets more answers than “let me know”, and a reminder a week before catches the rest.
