Copy ## What to include in a lunch invitation message Check the message covers these points before you send it, so no guest has to ask you for details later. - The time, as the first thing. Lunch invitations are read for the hour. - Home or outside, with the full address or the restaurant name and the area. - Who is cooking or what the place serves, so guests know what to expect and can mention a vegetarian seat. - Who is invited: just you, you and family, the whole team. - A reply-by date with the reason, the table booking or the rice. - For a potluck, what the host is making and what to bring. ### Before you send - Say 1 pm, not lunchtime. In India lunch runs from 12 to 3 and every family means a different hour. - For a restaurant lunch, name the place and the area, and say you are booking a table. A booking gives people a reason to reply. - For a team lunch, say whether the company is paying and whether people leave the office together. Those two lines stop all the follow-up questions. - Send a family lunch message a week ahead and a team lunch message three days ahead.
