Meghívót

Meghívó is the notice or document that invites someone to attend an event. In Hungarian usage, a meghívó can be a printed card, an email, or a digital invitation shared via messaging apps or event platforms. Its purpose is to inform recipients about the event and to request their presence. The form meghívót is the accusative singular, used when the invitation is the object of a sentence, for example in phrases like “elküldtem a meghívót.”

A standard meghívó includes several key elements: who hosts the event, what the event is, the date and time, the venue or meeting point, and any special instructions such as dress code, activities, or RSVP requirements. A deadline for response is commonly stated, along with the preferred contact method to respond and, if necessary, a map or directions. For formal events, the tone and language are more official; for informal gatherings, the wording is casual.

Formats and etiquette: For weddings, anniversaries, or corporate events, a meghívó often follows a traditional layout with a formal salutation and, in many cases, a printed card; for birthdays or casual get-togethers, emails or e-invitations are common. When writing or designing a meghívó, clarity and accuracy are essential, as is respecting recipients’ privacy when sharing guest lists or locations. It is customary to address guests by name and to send the invitation well in advance.
