I'll give you an example and ways how to do it
Explanation:
While formal invitations are sent for the above-mentioned occasions, many people also send a handwritten informal invitation beforehand to make these occasions more personal, cordial, and intimate as is appropriate to their relationship. Replying to invitations is essential. It is an essential courtesy to the host who has extended an invitation and also helps the host know how many guests will arrive so that he/she may make arrangements accordingly.
Like the invitations, replies to invitations also may be:
formal replies to invitations
informal replies to invitations
