邀请信包括宴会、舞会、晚餐、聚会、婚礼等各种邀请信件，形式上大体分为两种:一种为正规的格式 (formal correspondence)，亦称请柬;一种是非正式格式 (informal correspondence), 即一般的邀请信。邀请信是在形式上不如请柬那样正规，但也是很考究。书写时应注意:
邀请信一定要将邀请的时间(年、月、日、钟点)、地点、场合写清楚，不能使接信人存在任何疑虑。例如:“I’d like you and Bob to come to Luncheon next Friday.”这句话中所指的是哪个星期五并不明确，所以应加上具体日期, “I’d like you and Bob to come to luncheon next Friday, May the fifth.”
1. 邀请朋友共进午餐 Inviting a friend to informal luncheon
Dear [Zhang Ying]:
Will you come to luncheon on [Friday, May the fifth], at [twelve o’clock]?
My niece [Mary] is visiting us and I think you will enjoy meeting her. She is a charming, very pretty girl … and very good company! [John and Jane] will be here, and perhaps we can [give a dance] after luncheon. Do say you’ll come!
Affectionately yours,
Li Ming
亲爱的[张营]:

2. 邀请朋友同他们不认识的人一起共进晚餐 Inviting friends to supper with the strangers

[Mr. and Mrs. Lin Dun] are that very charming couple we met in [London] last summer. They have a wonderful collection of [oil paintings of various stages]; and I understand that Mr. Lin Dun is quite an authority on
[oil painting]. I’m sure you and Walter will thoroughly enjoy and evening in their company.
We’re planning supper at six; that will give us a nice long evening to talk. If I don’t hear from you before then, I’ll be expecting you on the [twelfth]!
Affectionately yours,
Li Ming

应用文翻译（非常实用）
邀请函的翻译
邀请函有正式与非正式之分。正式的邀请函对格式的要求非常严格，须认真对待，以免贻笑大方。撰写邀请函时应注意：正文写中间；应用第三人称；正文中可用标点符号，但末尾无标点；正文中的数字应用英文书写，而不能用阿拉伯数字。
例如：
(一)正式邀请函
为了欢迎约翰欧文先生，托马斯罗伯特博士暨夫人荣幸地邀请罗杰克拉克先生暨夫人出席于9月20日星期四晚8点在北大街100号举行的晚宴。
Dr. and Mrs. Thomas Robert
request the pleasure of
Mr. and Mrs. Roger Clacks company
at dinner
on Thursday, September the twentieth
at eight o’clock (or eight p.m.)
to meet Mr. John Oven
100 North Avenue
（二）接受邀请
罗杰克拉克暨夫人愉快地接受托马斯罗伯特博士暨夫人的盛情邀请，将于9月20日星期四晚8点出席晚宴。
Mr. and Mrs. Roger Clack
accept with pleasure
Dr. and Mrs. Robert’s
kind invitation for dinner
on Thursday September twentieth
at eight o’clock
在接受邀请函中，地点可忽略不再重复。
（三） 拒绝邀请
罗杰克拉克暨夫人遗憾地告知，因为预先有约，他们将无法出席托马斯罗伯特博士暨夫人于9月20日星期四举行的晚宴。
Mr. and Mrs. Roger Clack
regret that
a previous appointment (engagement)
prevents them (their) accepting
Dr. and Mrs. Thomas Robert’s
kind invitation for dinner
on Thursday September twentieth
在拒绝函中一般不写出具体几点钟，而且拒绝的原因应写在开头，且一般不用because of 或due to而用 owe to。因为邀请函通常只一句话，所以每行开头首字母皆不用大写
