Great ideas for a Memorial Day video invitation

Between Spring and Summer is the official warm weather opening holiday. Send a video invite to spread the news about your BBQ bash!

Give a sneak peek of the venue. Whether it’s your spacious backyard or a destination BBQ, lure your guests in with a video panoramic view of where you plan to host the event.

What’s on the menu? Because sending a video invitation is so quick and easy, you can send your invitation as you start stocking the kitchen for the holiday meal. Tantalize your guests and their taste buds so they’re excited about the grub.

Use photos from last year. Bring back those old Memorial Day memories as part of this year’s video invitation. Nothing will inspire your guests attendance more than rehashing the fun they’ve had with you over the years.

Savor the memory. How can you not - it is MEMORIAL Day, after all!. It’s one of the most celebrated holidays of the summer and a sure bet for fun memories. Video the highlights of the event and send as a parting gift to your attendees.

Pay tribute. We all know a member of the Armed Forces who deserves recognition on this patriotic day. Include that special someone in your video invitation so your guests know while this is a day of fun and BBQ, the most important part is remembering those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
