Ganesh Chaturthi 2025: Invite your loved ones with these beautiful invitation cards

New Delhi: Ganesh Chaturthi, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi or Vinayaka Chavithi or Vinayagar Chaturthi, is a colourful Hindu festival celebrating the birth of Lord Ganesha. It holds a great cultural and religious significance, and this year it begins on August 26 and ends on August 27. As devotees prepare to commemorate this auspicious occasion, invitation cards play a crucial role in extending warm welcomes and encouraging communal participation. These invitations serve as gateways to the festivities, symbolising tradition, creativity, and the spirit of unity.

In the modern era of social media, where we often use digital messages, sending physical invitation cards brings back a warm feeling. These card invitations not only tell guests about the event but also become valuable reminders of the celebration. These simple activities let us express our love for Lord Ganesha by designing the cards with vibrant images and heartfelt words. Additionally, using customisable invitation templates lets our creativity flow.

Incorporating images of Lord Ganesha or other festive elements like modaks, flowers, or traditional motifs makes the invitation cards more visually appealing. Use of vibrant colours like red, yellow, orange and green goes well with the festivity of Ganesh Chaturthi. Here are the heart-warming Ganesh Chaturthi card design ideas.

1. Simple invitation card

Minimal texts in white with a green background mentioning the names of guests with a beautiful image of Lord Ganesha in the centre, surrounded by garlands, or diyas, or a puja thali look appealing. At the end, you can mention your name and greet.

2. Card with Ganesh Chaturthi greeting

You can place the image of Lord Ganesh at the top and begin the texts below in red with a yellow background. The texts may include Ganesh Chaturthi greetings, Sri Ganeshay Namah, Om Ganeshay Namah and Ganpatti Bappa Morya, the venue name, time and date and your name. Both sides of the card can be designed with marigold flower images.

3. Two-folded invitation cards

The outer part of the two-fold card can be filled with images of tiny flowers and leaves. Guests can see Lord Ganesha in the centre, sitting inside a temple with bells around, when they open the card. Texts can be written on the back of the two-fold.

4. Single paper card

You can simply take a beautiful and thick sheet to be used as a single card, without any folding. A full image of Lord Ganesh in a purple dhoti and colourful garlands, standing on a pedestal with a light purple background, will look amazing. Texts in dark purple will look contrasting.

Make your guests feel special by sending a home made invitation cards or by taking out prints of digitally designed Ganesh Chaturthi invitation cards.
