Opening invitations: what to know

These invitations are for opening a shop, office, restaurant, salon or clinic, and for launches and ribbon cuttings. Add your business name, address and opening time, plus your logo if the design has a space for one.

Printed, digital or video

Printed cards work for neighbors and local shops you visit in person. A digital invite is easy to send to customers on WhatsApp or post on social media. A video invite is a short clip with music, which suits a story or status post. The product page says which kind each design is.

How editing works

The product page names the app you need and what you can change, such as your logo, business name and colors. Then save the file to print or share.

What to write

• The business name and what you sell or do
• The date and time of the opening, and of any ribbon cutting or blessing
• The full address, with a map link on digital invites
• Any opening offer, but only one you'll really give
• A phone number or page for questions

When to send them

A common habit is to send opening invites 1 to 2 weeks before. Post a reminder on the day before.
