A printed invitation sets the tone for an event before guests even arrive. In the UAE, printed cards are still expected for weddings, engagement parties, corporate galas, shop openings and iftar gatherings. Here is how to get them right.

Types of invitations

Weddings and engagements: elegant cards, often bilingual, with gold or silver details.
Corporate events: gala dinners, product launches and award nights.
Shop and office openings: simple cards with a map and QR code.
Ramadan iftar and Eid gatherings: warm designs with Arabic calligraphy.
