Invitation planning
Explore Gudi Padwa invitation wording and design ideas, including the details guests need and ways to personalize this editable event template.
Wording for Gudi Padwa invitations sets expectations before guests make their plans. The included starter line—“Join us as we raise the Gudi and welcome the new year with blessings and celebration.”—can be adapted to the hosts’ own voice, schedule and community.
For Gudi Padwa, help guests participate respectfully by listing the date, time, complete venue and the planned sequence of worship, ceremony, meal or community activities. Add dress, arrival, food, offering or RSVP guidance where useful, recognising that customs may differ between families and communities.
The supplied artwork includes sugar garland and festive doorway, providing a visual starting point connected to the occasion. Choose symbols and colours that the host community recognises, and leave enough visual quiet for dates, prayer times and venue details to remain legible. Every text block, colour, frame and artwork choice remains editable before the card is shared online or downloaded.
Wording and RSVP
Replace the brackets with real details and adjust the tone to suit your family, community and event.
“Please join us for Gudi Padwa with [name or names].”
“We will gather on [date] at [time] at [venue].”

Ask only for attendance, party size, and any food or access information you genuinely need. State one reply deadline and check the published invitation before sharing its private guest link.
