Updated Mar 06, 202520 Sweet Bridesmaid Luncheon Invitations Worthy of Your Wedding MVPs
Because prewedding bonding time with your besties absolutely warrants its own invitation…
There are so many prewedding events that require invitations, but one that often gets left out? The bridesmaid luncheon. As easy as it would be to send a group text to all of your favorite ladies (it's usually a girls-only gathering, but bridesmen certainly count!), mailing out a proper bridesmaid luncheon invitation is a sweet way to honor your wedding party and make each member feel special. It's also a fun task to take on yourself, since all of the planning thus far has been about you and your partner. Stepping out of the spotlight for just a moment to celebrate your squad and thank them for all the help and support they've lent throughout your engagement might be exactly what you need in the days leading up to your wedding.
In years past, the rehearsal dinner has been the occasion of choice for couples looking to present gifts and tokens of appreciation to their wedding party, but an intimate bridal luncheon can be an even better place to do it for your gals. Not only can you personalize the soirée to your unique taste, but it can also be as formal or informal as you'd like. Plus—despite what the name suggests—you don't have to limit yourself to lunch. If you'd like to invite your bridal party to the spa for nail appointments and noshes the day before your nuptials, you can; If you'd like to carve out time with your crew at a cool cocktail party the weekend before your wedding, you can; If you want to brunch with your besties the morning of your big day, you can.

You don't even have to be the one who hosts if you'd rather pass the baton onto your maid of honor, mother or godmother to orchestrate something fabulous for your favorite people. Just remember that since this party serves as a tribute to your VIPs, you'll be the one who doles out the hugs and thank-you cards when the time comes. Should you have any trouble coming up with your #appreciationpost following the event, you can let these bridal luncheon invitations inspire you.

Sarah Brown Float Bachelorette Party Invitations
Granted, a bridal luncheon is a lot simpler to plan than a weekend-long bachelorette party, but the pool flamingo still floats well for the occasion—especially if it will play out like a scene plucked straight from Palm Springs.

In any case, a poolside appreciation party will always be a win.

Dulce Grace Manis and Mimosas Bridal Party Celebration Invitation
Truth time: A wedding probably couldn't happen without bridesmaids and mimosas, so why not honor both at the same time? We love this invite, especially if the plan is to have your bridal luncheon a day or two before the wedding, when freshly-painted nails are already on everyone's to-do list. You can customize the color of the stripes if you'd like to mellow out the yellow a bit or make the hand-painted drinks stand out even more. Either way, it's an invitation worth toasting over.
