Housewarming Invitations
Within Invitation Cards
A housewarming is one of the few moments in adult life that genuinely calls for a gathering — not a group chat, not an Evite, but an actual invitation that lands in someone's mailbox and makes them feel like they were specifically chosen to walk through your new front door. The physical card signals that this party matters, that the address change is real, and that you want people to show up in person rather than just drop a comment on a moving announcement post. A handwritten invitation sets the tone before anyone arrives.
Cards From You makes it possible to send real housewarming invitations written in real ink, by hand, without you addressing a single envelope. You provide the party details — date, time, address, any BYOB or potluck notes — and the cards go out in the mail on your schedule. You can set a send date weeks in advance, which matters when you're coordinating a move, unpacking, and planning a party at the same time. The result is a card your guests will actually pin to a fridge rather than delete from an inbox.

Frequently Asked
How far in advance should I send housewarming invitations?
Two to three weeks is the standard lead time for a housewarming party. If you're hosting on a holiday weekend or inviting guests who travel, push that to four weeks. Sending too early — more than six weeks out — risks people forgetting or assuming the date might change as you settle in.
What information do I need to include on a housewarming invitation?
At minimum: your new address, the date and start time, and whether the party has an end time (open houses should say so). It's also worth noting parking situation, whether kids or pets are welcome, and if you'd prefer no gifts — people will bring something regardless, but the note is appreciated.
Can I customize the message on each card, or does everyone get the same text?
You can personalize each card individually — different names, different inside notes — or send every guest the same invitation text. Most people opt for a consistent invitation body with each recipient's name handwritten at the top, which keeps things personal without requiring you to write a unique message for every single card.
