Invitation Letter Template: Who, What, When, Where, with Example

  2. 2Date, time, venue and duration on their own lines.
  3. 3State their role: attend, speak for ten minutes, judge.
  4. 4A reply deadline and one contact.

A complete example

Written by the AI from this brief, exactly as the workbench would write yours:

An invitation from the organisers of the Hangzhou Tea Makers' Forum to Professor Lin Mei of Zhejiang University to give a 20-minute talk on soil and flavour at the forum on 12 December 2026, 2 to 5 pm, at the West Lake Conference Centre, with about 200 growers attending; travel covered; reply requested by 15 November to the forum secretary.

Invitation to Speak at the Hangzhou Tea Makers' Forum 2026

Dear Professor Lin Mei,

On behalf of the organisers of the Hangzhou Tea Makers' Forum, I am delighted to invite you to give a talk at this year's forum.

About the forum

The Hangzhou Tea Makers' Forum brings together around 200 tea growers from the region for an afternoon of talks and discussion on the craft and science of tea. Its purpose is to put practical, well-founded knowledge directly into the hands of the people who grow and make our tea.

Your part

We would be honoured if you would give a 20-minute talk on soil and flavour - how the ground beneath the bushes shapes the cup. Your work at Zhejiang University speaks directly to what our growers want to understand, and we expect lively questions from the floor.

Date, time and venue
Date Saturday, 12 December 2026
Time 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm (your talk slot to be confirmed)
Venue West Lake Conference Centre, Hangzhou
Audience Approximately 200 tea growers

Travel and preparation

  • Your travel costs will be covered by the forum.
  • Dress is [dress code needed].
  • No slides are required, but if you would like to use them, please send them to the forum secretary by [date needed].

How to reply

Please let us know whether you can join us by 15 November 2026 by writing to the forum secretary at [secretary name and email needed]. We will be glad to answer any questions about the programme or arrangements.

We very much hope you will accept, and look forward to welcoming you to the forum.

With kind regards,

Questions

Can I use the example as it is?
The example shows the shape and tone; its names and figures are made up. Open the template and give the AI your own facts, and it writes yours in the same shape.
Does it work in English and Chinese?
Yes. The document is written in the language of your brief, and any passage can be translated afterwards.
Is it free?
Writing is billed by the tokens used, usually a few credits per draft; the template, the skeleton and the editor cost nothing.
