I always use this app for events. It's quick and easy to use and keeps track of everything in one place. Love it!
Great selection of invites, and app is very easy to use! Have used this for multiple parties and it has worked very well!
Punchbowl has great digital invitations with an RSVP option. It was easy to choose a fun design for my son's 5th birthday party and manage the guest list. I loved the features offered especially the ability for parents to check "Yes" or "No" and send messages.
I enjoy using punchbowl for my parties since you can use text or email. When the guest opens the invite it opens just like you you would be sending them a card.
It can be more better if have easy reminder options but as this is free and easy to create n sent invitation.
Used Punchbowl for the Annual Office Christmas party and got a ton of compliments. Also there were so many great designs to choose from and sending the e-vites was super easy to do with the given option of email or phone number.
I used this app for my daughter's 1st birthday, and I was really happy with the way the invites turned out! There are a lot of cute FREE options. I liked that the invite was texted out, since I don't know everyone's email addresses. The app was easy to use, and I found it very helpful that it kept track of everyone's RSVP status. I highly recommend!
This is my go to site for creating my kids bday invites. Great and reliable and will always keep coming back and referring to my friends and family! Thank you for having such great service!
Punchbowl has an awesome array of card selections and if you upgrade the options are even better! Cards are very easy to create and send! They even prompt you with follow up thank you cards that take less than 5 minutes to complete! Perfect for someone like me!
I have used Punchbowl for several parties/events. Easy to use and helpful for keeping up with guests. Even a thank you option after your event. Updated since my last event with a text option. So helpful because I did not have everyone's email.
Great selection of invites and very user friendly. Would definitely recommend. Loved that you could also send a reminder out to your guests.
We have an annual Gingerbread party. I love that there are several card designs to choose from, so I'm not sending the same card each year! Also it's super handy to see when the invitation was opened and responded. I also love that the invitations can be send via email or cell phone number. Great way to connect with all your guests!
It wasnt time consuming, and everything they provided was amazing, you cant beat the 0 cost for this service with anything else.
This was my first time using Punchbowl for my Christmas Party. They have such a nice variety of invites and very easy to use. I will use them from now on for all of my parties.
As a first time user I was very impressed with Punchbowl. There is a good selection of attractive invitations to choose from. More importantly, the admin options were very comprehensive, which allowed me to manage my guest list in a variety of useful ways. I will definitely use this service again for my next party. I think my guests feel the same way. Thanks Punchbowl!
Every Christmas for the past few years, I have used Punchbowl to send out invitations for a dinner party. It is a reliable, consistent service with a great selection of invitations. I also use their greeting cards which also have a good selection and dependable delivery.
Thanks Punchbowl!
I loved using Punchbowl. It was easy & it helped me plan my party. I liked how it kept track of my invites too. Thank you!
We get great responses from our members about the invitations we send. They have no idea how simple it is. Thanks you make us look sooo professional.
Genius concept. I love these invites. Sadly, only females rsvp. The men invited Did not comprehend why or how to open the invites. I had to personally re invite all the men to my party.
They all showed up. Hopefully next party they understand to open the card / invite.
I've been using Punchbowl for a few years, and am really happy with how user friendly it is. Great variety of invitations/cards to choose from and appreciate the many features it provides. Thank you.
