# Event reminder texts you can copy Parties and events · https://lfg.gm/event-reminder-text-examples · Updated 2026-11-01 You know you should send a reminder, but you don't want to sound like a dentist's office. Here are event reminder texts you can copy, for every moment from a week out to doors, plus the one thing a text can't do. A text gets read when someone gets around to it. If it really matters that they're there on time, add an LFG Alarm link: guests tap it once, and a real alarm rings on their phone before your event. Swap the parts in [brackets], and keep each one short. ## A week before: ask them to confirm **Casual:** > Hey! [Event] is next [day] at [time]. Still in? Tell me so I know how much food to get. **More formal:** > Hi [name], a quick reminder that [event] is on [date] at [time]. Please confirm you can still make it by [day]. **Ticketed:** > [Event] is one week away! Your ticket's in your email. Doors at [time], [venue]. ## The day before: the details **House party:** > Tomorrow! [Time] at [address]. Park on [street]. Bring [thing] if you can. **Dinner:** > See you tomorrow at [time], [restaurant]. Table's under [name]. Let me know today if anything's changed. **Work event:** > Reminder: [event] is tomorrow at [time] in [place]. [One thing to prepare]. ## The day of: the last nudge **Short and friendly:** > Today's the day! [Time] at [place]. See you there. **Club or VIP list:** > Tonight. Doors at [time], list closes at [time]. Name at the door: [name]. **Running late:** > We're starting at [time] sharp. If you're on your way, you're good. ## Add the alarm to any of these Put this line at the end of any reminder above: > Tap this so your phone rings before it starts: lfg.gm/a/xxxxxxxx To get your own link, make the alarm first. [Here's how to set it up](https://lfg.gm/how-to-remind-guests-about-an-event#how-to-put-an-alarm-on-your-guest-list). It takes about a minute from your event's page. Texting from Posh? Its blasts are capped at 160 characters, so use the short versions. ## Let your AI write it **Try this.** Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Grok or another AI agent that has the LFG Alarm connector (https://mcp.lfg.gm), not into the LFG Alarm app. The person needs the LFG Alarm app on their phone. > Write three short reminder texts for [event] on [date] at [place]: one for a week before, one for the day before and one for the day of. Then use LFG Alarm to set an alarm that rings 2 hours before, and add its link to the last one. Why it works: You get all three messages and a working alarm link. Connect LFG Alarm to your AI app first: see [AI agents](https://lfg.gm/agents). ## What makes a reminder work - **One job per message.** Confirm, give details, or nudge. Not all three. - **The time and the place, every time.** That's what people scroll back for. - **A reason to care.** "The first set starts at 9" beats "don't forget". - **Keep it human.** Write it the way you'd text a friend. ## Questions ### What do you say in an event reminder? The event, the time, the place, and one thing they need to do. If you're asking them to confirm, say by when. ### How do you politely remind someone about an event? Make it about the plan, not about them. "Getting the food order in, still coming?" is friendlier than "please remember". ### When should I send an event reminder? About a week before, then a day or two before, then on the day. [Here's why that works](https://lfg.gm/how-to-remind-guests-about-an-event). ### Is a text or an alarm better? Use both. A text carries the details, and an alarm makes sure they look up at the right moment. ## Learn more - [How to remind guests about your event](https://lfg.gm/how-to-remind-guests-about-an-event) - [How to ring your whole Posh VIP guest list at once](https://lfg.gm/posh-event-alarm) - [How to get people to actually show up to events](https://lfg.gm/how-to-get-people-to-show-up-to-events) ## Sources and further reading - [Cvent: event reminder emails](https://www.cvent.com/uk/blog/events/event-reminder-emails) - [Posh support: sending a text blast](https://support.posh.vip/en/articles/10723741-sending-a-text-blast) ## Keep exploring - [How to get party guests to actually show up](https://lfg.gm/get-party-guests-to-show-up.md): Turn your Partiful or Luma invite into an alarm that rings every guest who joined. - [How to turn a Partiful invite into an alarm](https://lfg.gm/partiful-event-alarm.md): Paste a Partiful link and LFG Alarm makes the alarm for your guests. - [How to ring your whole Posh VIP guest list at once](https://lfg.gm/posh-event-alarm.md): Turn your Posh event into a real alarm, send it in a text blast, and ring your VIPs before doors. - [How to ring everyone coming to your Eventbrite event](https://lfg.gm/eventbrite-event-alarm.md): Reminder emails get buried.
