Frequently asked questions
Are these New Year's Eve invitations free?
Yes. All 76 designs are free to customize, download and print, with no watermark, no account and no email address.
Can I change the year on the invitation?
Yes. Wherever a design shows the year, such as Cheers to 2027, it is typed text, so it can say any year. The same cards work next December.
Is there a Chinese New Year invitation?
Yes. The Lunar New Year designs cover a reunion dinner, a dumpling party, red envelopes, the Year of the Goat and the Lantern Festival. Lunar New Year 2027 falls on Saturday, February 6.
What should I write on a New Year's Eve invitation?
Who is hosting, the date and start time, the address and how to RSVP, then one line that changes what guests do: a dress code, what to bring, whether kids are welcome. The wording ideas page collects short lines and longer verses, and the maker can drop any short line onto the back of the card.
Can I send the invitation by text or email instead?
Yes. Every design downloads as a phone-sized PNG for a text or an email attachment. For a letter or a work email, start from the invitation letter samples and attach the card.
Will printing a stack use a lot of ink?
No. Every design and color option is drawn on light paper with the color in the art and type, not a full dark background, so the cards print at home without draining a cartridge.
