Women's reception

Invitations for the women's reception, kept private

The women's evening is often the largest and most dressed-up part of a wedding. Its invitation has two jobs: give the guests every practical detail, and keep the address and the arrangements among the people they are meant for.

A card written for the evening

The women's hall has its own time, its own entrance and often its own dress. Put all three in the wording: when the doors open, when the bride enters, and which entrance to use. Many families also state that the evening is for ladies only, and give a gentle note about phones and photography.

Because the women's evening is often later than the men's reception, give the time clearly rather than assuming guests know the order of the night.

Privacy: a link is not a locked door

Anyone who receives a link can forward it, so think about who receives it. Send the women's link in private chats and groups of women, and avoid open groups. If an address is sensitive, write the hall name in the card and send the exact pin in a separate message.

With RSVP, you mark each guest as women, so each guest sees only the invitation for her own evening. The men's venue is not shown to her, and hers is not shown to them.

Etiquette for separate events

Dress, photography and children

Say in a line whether guests are to dress formally or traditionally, and whether photography is limited. If young children are welcome, say that too, or ask kindly that they stay home. These are your family's decisions and the editor leaves them to you.

A short, warm line works better than a list of rules; guests take the tone from the card.

Designs for the ladies' evening

Palace Garden is soft and green, the kind of card that suits a garden hall. Soft Champagne is light and modern. Arabian Nights has a theatrical night mood. Modern Khaleeji is clean and easy to read in Arabic.

Each opens full screen before you pay, and all of them can be made in Arabic or English.

Counting and the door

Add RSVP and each household answers with the number of women coming, so the hall receives one real count. On the night, a confirmed guest shows her entry QR card at the door. Both are set up with an access code from the studio; message us on WhatsApp.

One invitation costs 20 JOD, with no fee per guest. Browse the wedding designs in the gallery for more.

Details the ladies' guests usually ask about

Guests at the women's evening often come in groups, with a daughter or an elderly mother, and plan their evening around the answers. They ask what time to arrive, whether there is a place to leave coats and bags, and when the bride enters.

A card that answers these in advance lowers the number of messages you receive in the week of the wedding, which is when you can least afford them.

  • Arrival time and the bride's expected entrance
  • The ladies' entrance, and parking nearby
  • Dress and any note about photography
  • Whether young children are welcome
  • The reply date and how to answer, if you ask for a count

Questions and answers

Can I write ladies only?

Yes, in your wording. RSVP can also mark guests as women so each sees her own evening.

How do I keep the address private?

Send the link only in private chats. For a sensitive address, write the hall name on the card and send the pin in a separate message.

Can I say no photography?

Yes. The text is yours, so write whatever your family asks of guests.

Will the men see the women's venue?

Not through RSVP. Each guest sees only the invitation for her own evening.

Can guests check in at the door?

Yes, with the entry QR card RSVP gives each confirmed household.
