Formal and Informal Invitation
FORMAL and INFORMAL INVITATION
The Difference Between
Formal and Informal Invitations
When
we are preparing a party, a birthday or even a wedding, you can send your guests information about the event
through formal or informal invitations. The most important difference between the two is that the
formal invitation must follow the established etiquette. We explain the most important features of each type of invitation and then
the major difference between formal and informal invitations.
The formal invitation is much more classical and elegant, with letters, for
example, in Times New Roman, with proper punctuation and capital letters. It
will also speak to your guests with the highest grade of formality. Formal
invitation must be sent by post and you should wait for confirmation by post or
by telephone, whereas the informal invitation can be done by e-mail or over the
Internet.
A formal invitation
As we've mentioned earlier, formal invitations follow strict
rules that should be followed. They are used in formal events such as
cocktails, weddings,etc... Formal
invitations should contain and comprise with the following rules
and information:
·
The
logo or initials of the party organizer.
·
The
invitation should be written
in third person
·
The
full name of the organizer or organizers.
·
A
neutral tone should be used.
·
It
provides information about the event. For example, "brunch", "an
awards ceremony" or "drinks reception".
·
Dates
must be written in letters and you should not use abbreviation.
·
It
ought to explain why the party or event is being held, "to
celebrate..." or "to honor..."
·
Enter
the address, the time and the venue.
·
Detail
the dress code or the style of dress to be donned by guests. There are several
types of clothing, but the most correct attire for a formal party is: semi-formal, formal
dress code, black tie...
·
Include
an RSVP - this elegant abbreviation comes from the French phrase
"Répondez, s'il vous plait"; which in English means "Please
respond". This is required at parties where you need to know exactly who
will come, so you can organize nibbles and other things. You can include a
reply card with a phone number. Include a deadline for responses.
An informal invitation
An informal invitation or non-formal invite
can take on many different forms and it does not require all the pomp and
ceremony of a formal invitation. The important thing to include in non-formal
invitations is:
·
The
sender or event organizer.
·
The
informal invitation can be written in handwriting
·
You
can use a warmer, more personal tone.
·
The
reason for which the event is being held. You can write these using a direct
and personal style.
·
RSVP
for the event. Put your e-mail or phone. Another original way to confirm
attendance and one which will help you manage the guests at the event is by
using a Doodle.
·
Another
way to send a non-formal invitation is through a Facebook event.
You can be much more creative with informal invitations, so wreck
your brain and think of some original ideas that can make your event more
attractive to your possible attendees.
