What to Include on a <\/b>Birthday Dinner Party Invitation<\/b><\/h2>\n

As you\u2019re composing your invite, you might have way too much information, or maybe your card looks oddly blank. What details should you include?<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Who the party is for: <\/b>This is especially important if you\u2019re hosting the party for someone else. Make sure the guest of honor\u2019s name is front and center, along with how old they\u2019re turning. Including the age makes for easier card-writing for anyone who\u2019s not keeping track!<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Date and time: <\/b>Add the most important details, the date and time, near the top. You don\u2019t need the day of the week, but if you have room, it can be helpful for guests to see without having to look at a calendar.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Address: <\/b>Add the location along with any identifiers or instructions, like “Kelsey\u2019s house,\u201d \u201cLook for the red door,\u201d or \u201cRing the buzzer upon arrival.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Type of dinner party: <\/b>Make it clear what the format of the party is. Are you cooking a themed dinner or maybe meeting up at your favorite restaurant? Is it a <\/span>potluck<\/span>? Is it more of a <\/span>cocktail party<\/a><\/strong> with a light dinner served? Make it clear in a few words.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Dress code<\/b>: <\/b>If you\u2019re hosting a <\/span>themed party<\/a><\/strong> where people need to dress to impress, you might want to bold or emphasize it so no one misses it.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. RSVP<\/b> information:<\/b> Add a deadline for the <\/span>RSVP<\/span> along with how to give you a yes or a no. If you\u2019re using <\/span>online invitations like Greenvelope<\/a><\/strong>, you can collect digital <\/span>RSVPs<\/span> automatically and track guest responses in real time without chasing anyone down over text.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
