8 Billionaires You Can Send Your Wedding Invitation To (With Addresses)

So you ordered your wedding invitations, and you ended up with extras. Maybe the printer rounded up, maybe your guest list got a little smaller since you placed the order, or maybe you just got a little ambitious with that quantity. Either way, you’re looking at a stack of gorgeous invitations with nowhere to go.

You’ve probably heard of sending them to companies (we have a whole guide on that). You might have even sent one to the White House. But what about billionaires?

Before you write this off as bizarre, hear me out. Sending a wedding invitation to a billionaire isn’t really about expecting them to show up or send a Vitamix. It’s the same energy as mailing one to Disney or the White House — it’s lighthearted, it costs you a stamp, and there’s a tiny, wonderful chance that something fun comes back in the mail.

Here’s everything you need to know if you want to try it.

Why People Send Wedding Invitations to Billionaires

The logic is pretty simple: most high-profile billionaires have assistants, PR teams, or foundation staff who handle their mail. When something sweet and unexpected shows up (like a wedding invitation from a stranger), it’s not unusual for someone on that team to send a polite response.

This is the same psychology that drives the send wedding invites to companies trend. Brands like Chick-fil-A, Disney, and Nintendo have sent gifts to couples who mailed them an invitation.

(Plus, the “nothing to lose” logic is real. A stamp costs less than a dollar.)

Before You Send Anything: What to Know

This part matters. Sending a wedding invitation to a billionaire should be fun and harmless, but there are a few things to keep in mind so it stays that way.

• Only use public corporate or foundation addresses. Every address on this list is a publicly available business office, corporate headquarters, or foundation mailing address. We’re not giving out anyone’s home address, and you should never try to find one. That crosses a line from playful to invasive, and it’s not the vibe.
• Don’t include your registry. Send the invitation itself, and maybe a short, warm note if you want. But including a registry link or gift expectations turns this from charming to presumptuous really fast.
• Go in with zero expectations. The most likely outcome is that nothing happens, and that’s completely fine. If something does come back, it’s a bonus. Approach it like buying a lottery ticket; you’re paying for the fun of playing, not banking on the payout.
• Keep it classy. A real invitation (or a nice extra) with a brief, genuine note goes a lot further than a mass-produced letter begging for a response. Think of it as fan mail with a wedding twist.

8 Billionaires You Can Mail an Invitation To

These are all billionaires (or billionaire-adjacent public figures) with publicly listed corporate or foundation mailing addresses. These offices receive high volumes of mail, so there’s no guarantee your invitation will get a response, but the addresses are real, public, and appropriate to use.

Bill Gates — Gates Foundation

Bill Gates has one of the most established philanthropic operations in the world. The Gates Foundation’s headquarters in Seattle processes a huge volume of correspondence, and their team is known for being responsive.

Mailing Address:

Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation PO Box 23350 Seattle, WA 98102

Mark Cuban — Cost Plus Drugs / Mark Cuban Companies

Mark Cuban has publicly said he receives hundreds of wedding invitations from strangers, so at the very least, you know your invite won’t be the weirdest thing in his mailbox. His companies are based in Dallas, and the corporate address is publicly listed.

Mailing Address:

Mark Cuban Companies 5950 Berkshire Lane, Suite 900 Dallas, TX 75225

Oprah Winfrey — Harpo Productions

Oprah’s production company, Harpo, has been handling fan mail for decades. While the chances of Oprah personally opening your invitation are slim, her team has a long history of acknowledging thoughtful correspondence.

Mailing Address:

Harpo Productions 1041 N. Formosa Ave. Los Angeles, CA 90046

Jeff Bezos — Bezos Earth Fund

Jeff Bezos may not read your invite over breakfast, but his philanthropic arm, the Bezos Earth Fund, has a public office that processes correspondence. It’s a long shot, but stranger things have happened in a billionaire’s mailroom.

Mailing Address:

Bezos Earth Fund 2101 L Street NW, Suite 800 Washington, DC 20037

Warren Buffett — Berkshire Hathaway

Warren Buffett is famously down-to-earth for a billionaire: he still lives in the same house he bought in 1958 and is known for personally reading letters. Berkshire Hathaway’s headquarters in Omaha is surprisingly small and accessible. Of everyone on this list, Buffett might be the most likely to actually see your invitation (or at least have someone on his lean team notice it).

Mailing Address:

Berkshire Hathaway Inc. 3555 Farnam Street Omaha, NE 68131

Richard Branson — Virgin Group

Richard Branson has built a brand around being playful, adventurous, and approachable. Virgin Group’s London office handles a range of public correspondence, and given Branson’s personality, a wedding invite feels very on-brand for his mailbox.

Mailing Address:

Virgin Group The Battleship Building 179 Harrow Road London, W2 6NB United Kingdom

Sara Blakely — Spanx

Sara Blakely, the founder of Spanx and a self-made billionaire, is known for her warmth and sense of humor. She’s spoken publicly about celebrating other women’s milestones and has a reputation for genuine fan engagement. Spanx’s corporate office in Atlanta is the place to send it.

Mailing Address:

Spanx, Inc. 3035 Peachtree Road NE, Suite G1 Atlanta, GA 30305

What Actually Happens After You Send It

Let’s set expectations, because this is the part most “fun novelty” articles skip.

• Most likely outcome: nothing. Your invitation arrives at a corporate office, gets sorted with the rest of the mail, and that’s it. No response, no acknowledgment. This is the outcome for the vast majority of people who try this, and it’s completely normal. These offices receive thousands of pieces of mail.
• Possible outcome: a form letter or card. Some billionaires (and their teams) do send generic congratulations cards, signed photos, or brief notes. This is similar to what you’d get from the White House or a celebrity fan mail address.
• Rare outcome: an actual gift or personalized response. This does happen, but it’s the exception. TikTok and Reddit threads are full of couples claiming they received gifts after sending invitations to billionaires, but rare outcomes make for good content precisely because they’re rare. Don’t plan your thank-you cards around it.

The real win here is the story itself. Telling your friends you sent a wedding invitation to Warren Buffett is inherently entertaining, whether or not he writes back.

What to Do With Extra Invitations If You’re Not Sending Them to Billionaires

Not into the billionaire experiment? Totally fair. Here are some other things you can do with those extra invitations:

• Send them to companies. This is the more established version of this trend, and it has a higher response rate. Brands like Disney, Chick-fil-A, Nintendo, and Ben & Jerry’s have all sent gifts to couples who mailed them an invitation. Check out our full list of companies to send wedding invitations to for addresses and tips.
• Keep them as keepsakes. Set aside a few for your scrapbook, your parents, and your photographer. Your invitation suite is one of the tangible artifacts of your wedding; it’s worth preserving a couple of clean copies.
• Create a memory box or shadow box. Frame one alongside your wedding photo, or tuck it into a memory box with other wedding keepsakes like your vows, dried flowers, or napkins from the reception.
• Give them to your wedding party. Some bridesmaids and groomsmen love having a copy of the invitation as their own memento, especially if the design was custom or meaningful.
