You are warmly invited
Invitation copy for a concept evening of readings, written to be opened, understood at a glance, and answered.
This is placeholder writing created for the preview so the reading layout can be judged. It was not written by Your Name and has not been published anywhere.
Event copy is read quickly, often on a phone, and acted on. This sample keeps the order a guest actually reads it in. It belongs to the An Evening of Small Stories concept.
The invitation
You are warmly invited to An Evening of Small Stories — an hour or two of short readings, a little music, and conversation that doesn’t need a microphone.
Thursday evening. Doors at seven, first words at quarter past.
The details
Come as you are. There will be drinks, a few chairs too many, and a programme you can keep. If you’d like to read something of your own, bring it; there is always room at the end.
The ask
Kindly reply by the first of the month so we can save you a seat.
One ask, said once. Everything else in the invitation exists to make that reply feel easy.
