How do you send bridal shower invitations online?
Create the shower, add each guest or couple, and send each one its own link by text, email, or chat. Guests reply in two taps without an account, and your dashboard shows who's coming, who's a maybe, and who hasn't replied. Put the registry and dress code in the details. It's free, with no ads.
A shower guest list spans both families
A bridal shower brings together people who've never met: college friends, the future mother-in-law, aunts from both sides, and coworkers. They don't share a group chat, and a few reply only when someone asks twice.
Add each guest, or each household for a couples shower, and send each one its own link. One person answers for everyone listed, so partners are counted without a follow-up text.
Put the registry link, the dress code, and whether it's a surprise in the event details. Guests see them on the invite before they reply.
Couples and coed wedding shower invitations
A couples shower or coed wedding shower invites partners, and sometimes kids. List both partners under one household, and one of them answers for both. Allow extra guests if a plus-one is welcome, and the name arrives with the reply.
If it's adults only, say so on the invite and keep the extra guest limit at zero. Then send each household its own link rather than the event's shared link, since anyone who opens the shared link can add their own name.
Where shower RSVPs get lost
- Two families, no shared chat
- The bride's side and the groom's side don't know each other, so replies scatter across texts, emails, and calls to the mother of the bride.
- Partners answer as one
- “We'll be there” at a couples shower could mean one guest or two.
- Co-hosts keep separate counts
- The maid of honor, a sister, and the mother of the bride each hear different answers.
- The count arrives late
- Brunch reservations and favors need a number a week out, and the last replies trickle in the day before.
Three steps from invite to headcount
It works the way your guests already talk: by text, email, and group chat.
Add the guest list
Add each guest, or each couple as one household. Set whether extra guests are welcome, so a plus-one arrives with the reply, not as a surprise at the door.
Send each guest a link
Text it, email it, or send it on WhatsApp. Guests read the date, place, and registry details, then tap Yes, No, or Maybe. No account, no app.
Watch the count, nudge the quiet ones
Your dashboard shows who's coming, who's a maybe, and who hasn't replied. Copy a nudge for each guest who hasn't answered and send it yourself.
Bridal shower designs
Try watercolor garden, balloons, or any other painted design free; guests see it once the event has Plus ($12).
Made for the maid of honor and every co-host
Couples counted, ready-to-send nudges, and co-hosts. No guest accounts.
- Co-hosts see the same count
- Add the maid of honor, the mother of the bride, and anyone else hosting, and everyone works from one dashboard.
- Couples counted correctly
- Name both partners, and each gets a yes or no in your count. Allow extra guests, and a guest can add a plus-one to the same reply.
- No ads, no guest accounts
- Guests open the link in any phone browser and reply in two taps. There are no ads on the invite, free or Plus.
Ask for marriage advice
Add an optional question guests answer with their RSVP. Advice for the couple is fun to read aloud at the shower; a food question helps with the menu.
One RSVP question is free. Families can answer or skip it.
Your best advice for the newlyweds?
Optional
A family's answer
Always split the last slice of cake. And never shop for furniture hungry.
Send this with each link
A short note from you gets more replies than a bare link. Paste it into the text or email with each guest's link.
We're throwing a bridal shower for [name] on [date]! Here's your RSVP link, so we get the count right for brunch. The registry and details are on the invite. Please RSVP by [date], no account needed.
Questions
Common questions about bridal shower invitations and RSVPs.
Are these bridal shower invitations free?
Yes. Hejmo is free for unlimited events, with RSVP tracking, a private link per guest or household, nudges, co-hosts, and one RSVP question. There are no ads on the invite. Plus is optional: $12 for one event adds invitation styles, illustrated covers or your own cover photo, a custom link, a custom RSVP confirmation, and up to five RSVP questions.
Is there a free evite for bridal showers?
Yes. Evite has free bridal shower designs, and they show ads unless you upgrade to Premium. Hejmo is free for unlimited events with no ads on any invite, and guests reply without an account.
Can I include the registry?
Yes. Paste the registry link into the event details, and guests can copy it from the invite. Hejmo doesn't host registries, so keep the store or registry site you already chose.
Who should be invited to a bridal shower?
Usually the wedding party, close family from both sides, and close friends. Traditionally, everyone invited to the shower is also invited to the wedding. Build the list with the couple and the other hosts, then add it to Hejmo.
Can the other hosts manage the RSVPs?
Yes. Add co-hosts, and each of them can update the details, manage the guest list, and see replies from their own account.
Run this event, then reuse the guest list for the next one
Free for unlimited events. Plus ($12 per event) adds invitation styles, illustrated covers or your own cover photo, a custom link, a custom RSVP confirmation, and up to five RSVP questions. If you host often, Host Pass puts Plus on every event you create for $19/year.
