Invitations are of two types. - 1) Formal Invitations 2) Informal Invitation
While formal invitations are sent for the above mentioned occasions, many people also send a handwritten informal invitation beforehand to make these occasions more personal, cordial and intimate as is appropriate to their relationship.
Replying to invitations is essential. It is an essential courtesy to the host who has extended an invitation and also helps the host know how many guests will arrive so that he she may make arrangements accordingly.

• The subject matter is written in the centre setting. Details like address, dress code or any other instructions are written at the bottom to the left or the right as per choice or convenience.

• the name(s) of the host (s) issuing the invitation
• the standard expression 'request the pleasure of the company of ………….'
• the reason for the invitation.
• the time and date of the event.
