Wedding brunch invitations for the morning after
The morning after the wedding, one last meal together before everyone heads home. A farewell brunch is relaxed by design: come when you can, leave for the airport when you must. Send it from your phone, and the restaurant gets a live head count.
When to send it
Send the brunch invitation with the wedding invitation or soon after, so travelers book flights that leave after it. Ask for RSVPs by the wedding’s RSVP-by date, three to four weeks before.
Who to invite
Out-of-town guests and family at least, and often everyone at the wedding. Whoever hosts decides; the couple usually stops by, but it’s fine if they’ve already left.

Tips
- Make it a drop-in: a window in the details (“any time from 10 to noon”) works for early flights and late sleepers alike.
- Give the restaurant letsparty’s caterer link: a live head count with adults and kids counted separately, and no guest names.
- Planning a patio brunch? letsparty shows the forecast on the invitation the week of, so guests know whether to bring a jacket.

How letsparty helps
RSVPs by name, with meal choices
Each guest says who’s coming and picks a meal; kids are counted on their own, and plus-ones can be limited, turned off, or given to one guest at a time. How →
No app for your guests
Every household gets its own link, texted from your phone or emailed. It opens in any browser, greets them by name and takes their answer in a few taps. How →
A head count the venue can use
Set the room’s limit and late yeses join a waitlist; give the caterer a live link with the head count and meals, no names. How →
Every guest’s photos, together
A QR sign on each table puts everyone’s photos on one wall, with a slideshow for the reception screen. How →
For couples
One price for your whole wedding
The Wedding plan is $199. It lasts from the day you start until three months after the wedding, however long the engagement, and moves if the date does. It covers the wedding, any party you make around it, and every other party you host until then, with no limit on invites. After that it renews as a regular Host Pass at $99 a year; cancel any time before it renews.

Who hosts the wedding brunch?
Often the couple’s parents or close family, sometimes the couple themselves. It’s a nice way for the family that didn’t host the rehearsal dinner to host something.
Does the couple have to attend the farewell brunch?
No. Many couples stop by to say goodbye, but it’s fine if they’ve already left for the honeymoon. Say so on the invitation if you know.
What time should a farewell brunch start?
Mid-morning works for most guests, somewhere between 9 and 11, with a two- to three-hour window for early flights.
