How to invite someone to prom

Sending an online invite is a fantastic way to invite people to prom. It’s a no-stress option of planning and building excitement for an unparalleled evening of dancing the night away. An online prom invitation is direct, effortless, and after you tailor it to your liking—downright magical!

Asking someone to prom can feel like a leap of faith, but choosing the right invitation will be an absolute breeze thanks to the variety of themes and customization tools we offer. We’ve taken all the guesswork out of crafting a well-designed invitation that marks your special occasion in style.

What you write on your prom invitation can range from formal to carefree and casual. Stick with the classic, “Will you go to prom with me?” or try out, “You are cordially invited” for a black tie event. If that’s not the vibe you’re going for, something more relaxed like, “Come boogie down!” is totally acceptable too.
