Diwali: 13 ready messages

# Diwali invitation message  
for the Lakshmi puja evening, the party and the get-together after.

A Diwali invitation message does two things: it says which evening you mean, because Diwali is five days long, and whether guests are coming for the Lakshmi puja or for the party after. Below are thirteen messages Indian hosts send on WhatsApp: a Lakshmi puja at home for family and neighbours, a society Diwali evening, a card party, an office Diwali milan, the Padwa and Bhai Dooj get-togethers, and templates you can fill in. Copy the one that fits, add your address and the time of the puja, and send it to each family.

## What to include in a diwali invitation message

Check the message covers these points before you send it, so no guest has to ask you for details later.

-   Which day you mean: Dhanteras, Diwali night, Padwa or Bhai Dooj. The dates differ every year and guests get them mixed up.
-   The puja time and the dinner time as separate lines, since many guests come for one.
-   The full address with the tower, the flat number and a landmark, and where to park.
-   Dress, if it matters: ethnic wear for the office milan, anything for the card party.
-   Whether children and elders are expected, and whether there will be crackers.
-   A reply-by date tied to the cook or the caterer.

### Before you send

-   Name the date, not just Diwali. Diwali 2026 is Sunday, 8 November, Padwa is Monday and Bhai Dooj is Tuesday, and guests have invitations for all three.
-   Give the aarti a fixed time and keep the rest open. Diwali evenings are for dropping in, and a two-hour window gets more people than a sharp start.
-   Say whether there will be crackers. Families with small children and elders decide on that line.
-   Send it a week before Dhanteras, since guests fill their Diwali evenings early, and send a two-line reminder on the morning of the puja with the address again.
