Ever since I came across the Punchbowl app, this is all I use for my invites. I don't use social media therefore I turn to Punchbowl for electronic invitations. The app is easy to use, has a wide selection of themes for the invites and allow you to send a invite via email or text! I especially love the rsvp feature. This allows me to quickly see and keep track of who will attend my event.

Cute E-vitations with Flexibility
December 16, 2019

I've used Punchbowl frequently and like it very much. The invitations are cute, colorful, seasonally appropriate and attractive. There is flexibility in what attributes you can include, such as potluck contributions, which I use for one of my annual events.

Quality Service
February 5, 2020

I really appreciated the service received from Punchbowl. It took the headache out of the process for keeping up with the invites for my son's birthday. The process is simple, the invitations were easy to create with lots of choices. I was able to see who RSVP'd and even auto set up the reminders. My guests really loved the invites as well.

Punchbowl Recommendation
June 29, 2020

I have used Punchbowl to send out several invitations for my social group of over 170 people. I find it to be a great value for the price. I love their selection of invitations and find their site is easy to use. The invitations are easy to manage with lots of options. I have purchased an annual membership for the past 2 years.

Everything you need!
December 3, 2019

Amazing! I recommend Punchbowl to everyone when it comes to invitations that are easy to create and monitor. I utilized the potluck feature for thanksgiving and it worked out perfectly. Plus, the next day I received a reminder to send out a thank you card which was the perfect touch. Overall, the app is user friendly and has all the features you'd need.

Great Product
October 13, 2020

I fully recommend this product. As a people Manager ot has been very helpful for me in organizing events, for Rewards and Recognition, Birthday greetings, and even used it to wish someone well after being absent for a few days due to sickness.

My staff, and people I sent it yoo are amazed of the product and the way they receive it. Especially during this time of the pandemic this has been a great tool to use.

Easy peasy
October 29, 2020

This was my first time using an electronic invite. This was so user friendly that I required no assistance. The selection was plenty and nice. I would recommend even for the not so savvy electronics person. Will use again and definitely recommend.

Went to the website, found a nice card for my daughter, was willing to accept an ad in it, and I couldn't send it without joining. Worse, even if I was willing to pay for one month $4.99 as advertised, they would charge me for an entire year. Read about others experiences here--even if I could contest any charges after canceling on my cc, I decided that deception up front often indicates later deception and problems. Not worth trusting this company.

My go to for parties
January 22, 2020

I used Punchbowl the first time for my daughters 2nd Birthday I wanted something cute but definitely something electronic because I was doing most invites through Facebook. I remember her party was Tangled themed and the movie just came out and Party City barely had decorations let alone invites. Found a beautiful card purple and pink invite with a big #2. Literally have been using it for every event since. And so have my friends after me. Just celebrated my eldest daughters 10th Birthday and I love that Punchbowl has every invite I ever made saved on my profile. I've even gotten discounts from party city for decorations just for making an invite I was going to do anyway

Virtual Bridal Shower
December 4, 2020

It was so easy to pick and edit the invites for the virtual bridal shower. I loved how it tracked the RSVP's for me and that as the restrictions changed we were able to add a message on to the invite. After the shower was over it allowed me to send a thanks for "zooming in" card too. I received lots of positive comments about that too.

Great Variety & Styles
December 19, 2019

I've used Punchbowl for all my parties over the years and I've never been disappointed. Their selection of invitations and ease of setting up a guest list are fabulous. I just had a Holiday Party and invited 54 guests and it was so easy to set up and I was updated on all messages throughout the process. It's the first part of a party process and it's great to be so easy!

Googling "free" online invitations still turns up Punchbowl despite the fact that they now charge a monthly fee to use. The casual user who only hosts a couple of parties a year simply has no use for a monthly site fee. Everyone I know was fine to see the ads as that is the cost of having your free invites, but I see that Punchbowl wanted to up their revenue stream. Back to Evite I go.

Punchbowl attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond

Super easy and fun
March 18, 2020

It was easy to make and send out invites for a birthday party with Punchbowl. I got several comments that the invitees appreciated getting a cute invite via email and could just RSVP via email. I will definitely use Punchbowl again!

They do what they say
December 5, 2019

When I was reading through the membership contract, I kept on thinking oh every web site says this but they never follow through with it but Punchbowl actually followed through will all of their promises. I had an inquiry and within minutes, LITERALLY minutes, I had a definitive answer! No email hopping from one department to another, no five business days delay, nothing like that at all. Super impressive!
