This was my 1st time using Punchbowl

This was my 1st time using Punchbowl! My Mother's 90th birthday invitation was selected from a variety of choices that were fitting for such an occasion. I inadvertently paid for the "Premium" package and do not regret it because I'm able to utilize Punchbowl for any/all occasions.

I especially like having the option to send "thank you" notes for attending my mother 90th birthday celebration. I look forward to utilizing all the benefits Punchbowl provides for planning any event.

Love this website for invitations

Love this website for invitations, I have used it twice for a birthday party and a Christmas Eve party...... Made my own invitations online and sent them to all the people invited through their phone number. And all was free. Awesome!

Use punchbowl for your next party!!

I have used punchbowl for years, I use it for every party that I host. Punchbowl has invitations for every occasion you can think of, and all of the designs are always so cute! Punchbowl is easy to use, and allows you to invite everyone and keep up with your guest list all in one location, and the best part is its all for free!!

Nice & Easy

Easy to use, several lovely & free invitation choices, efficient & easy process for my guests; easy tracking of RSVP status, liked the “reminder” feature that automatically goes out before event, have used Punchbowl for a number of years, & expect to do so in the future.
