Invitations for the men's reception, the majlis and the dinner
In many families the men celebrate in their own place and on their own schedule: a majlis, a diwaniya, a tent or a hall with a long dinner. The men's invitation should carry exactly what the men need, and no more.
A different schedule from the women's evening
Where the celebrations are separate, the men's evening often has its own rhythm: guests arrive over a longer stretch, greet the host, sit for coffee and dates, and eat. The card can say receiving guests from a given hour until a given hour instead of a single start time.
If there is a set moment, such as the arrival of the groom or the reading of the Fatiha at a katb kitab, mention it. Otherwise an open window respects how men's gatherings usually flow.
Majlis, diwaniya, dinner or hall
Each setting carries its own words. A diwaniya is a regular men's gathering room, especially in Kuwait. A majlis is the reception room of a house. A dinner may be at a restaurant, a camp or a hall. Name the place the way your family would and give the real address.
Because the men's address is not the women's, send each group only the link meant for them. Both are separate invitations, each with its own map pin.
Wording and dress
Formal wording opens with the name of God, names the host and invites the guest to honour the family with his presence. Many men's cards also say the dress, such as thobe or bisht, or suit for an international crowd. A line asking guests to arrive before the meal is served is practical.
Our wording guide offers examples in a few tones, so you can pick the register your family is comfortable with.
Designs with a masculine, restrained look
Luxury Diwaniya was drawn for this setting, with deep tones and gold detail. Golden Architecture is geometric and formal. Royal Monogram puts the family initials in front. Desert Pearl is lighter, for a daytime reception.
All of them open full screen before you pay, and they work in Arabic or English.
Counting and the door
With RSVP, each guest or family answers with a party size, and you mark them as men so each sees the invitation for his own evening. At a large gathering, the entry QR card lets whoever stands at the door check guests in with a phone, without seeing the whole list.
RSVP and the entry QR are set up with an access code from the studio. A single invitation costs 20 JOD.
Details men's guests usually ask about
Men often arrive straight from work or a long drive, and the questions they send are practical ones. Is there parking, which gate, is dinner served, how formal is the dress. The card is the place to answer all of it.
If the host is a family elder, the wording is usually his: write it in the first person plural, as the family speaks, and keep the style of your family rather than a template.
- The hours the host receives guests
- The setting: majlis, diwaniya, camp or hall, and its address
- Whether coffee and dates only, or a full dinner, is served
- Dress, in a short phrase
- A contact number for directions, written in the text if you wish
Questions and answers
Can I make a separate invitation for the men's evening?
Yes. Each evening has its own invitation, date and map pin. Send each group its own link.
Can I write receiving guests from one hour to another?
Yes. The wording is free, so you can give an open window instead of a single time.
What is the difference between a majlis and a diwaniya?
A majlis is the reception room of a house. A diwaniya is a regular men's gathering place, common in Kuwait. Use the word your family uses.
Do guests need an app?
No. The link opens in the phone's browser.
Can I check guests in at the door?
Yes, with the entry QR cards that RSVP gives each confirmed household. The studio sets it up with you.
