Very easy to use
Very easy to use! I love the variety of options, typically meeting the unique needs of each party we have hosted. I love the guest list memory and being able to send thank yous after the party as well!
Great Help
They're trustworthy, sophisticated, friendly. Their products satisfy customers with a wide range of possibilities.
Creativity at your fingertips
Truly impressed with the variety of cards and announcements, and the simplicity of navigating through the applications with such ease. It makes life so much easier not having to always utilize the postal service to reach out to people on special occasions or arranging get togethers.
I love the all of the choices offered
I love the choice of invitations and cards. Several of those I sent the invitations to commented on how cute and clever they are. The follow up thank you cards were equally as creative. Thanks for making the birthday party easier!
I LOVE Punchbowl
I LOVE Punchbowl! For years, I sent invitations to family Christmas events through regular USPS. It was time consuming and costly at the ever-increasing postal rates. First, let me tell you I am 74 years old which means I didn’t grow up with electronic technology. However, when a site is menu driven, I can usually do ok. PUNCH BOWL IS EASY EVEN FOR ME TO USE! The menu gets you through the site step-by-step! It was easy to select the correct design, write the card, list the recipients, select the specific recipients off your list, send to the recipients, get RSVP’s and automatically kept track of the number of attendees! THEN, when the event was over, I sent the cutest thank you note to all who attended! They LOVED it! Punchbowl has reduced the amount of time needed to send invitations, receive RSVP’s and subsequent Thank You notes to very, very little time! At my age, if I can do it, ANYONE can do it! THANK YOU PUNCHBOWL FOR MAKING MY HOLIDAY SEASON SO MUCH EASIER! I am forever grateful to you!

If you host parties this is the app to have!! It is so amazing to have up to the minute rsvps and the ability to message guests. My niece was getting married and she had sent her invitation out when they found out her venue had to change…..NO WORRIES! Auntie was the hero that day, we just sent out a Punchbowl invite with the change of venue and was able to get the word out in seconds!! I have the premium version because I host quite a few events and it is worth every penny! Thank you Punchbowl!!

Very easy to navigate and many options like sending

Great themes and easy to use
Punchbowl has great visual themes and is so easy to use!!
Bait and Switch
Like many others have mentioned, any site that claims to have a selection of free cards and strings you along to create a card you think is free, then hits you with a subscriprion paywall is scammy. It's called bait and switch basically. I'd never do business with companies that do this. It's a red flag from the start that they're a rip off.

We planned a surprise party and all communications went through punch bowl. I paid for a month so I could have all the site had to offer. Easy to use!
I love the app considering its free
I love the app considering its free. Sometimes I think my family and friends think its spam or something due to the adds so they ignore it. Idk. But I would love if we can forward invites through text and not just email.
