It’s the perfect precursor to a celebration where sipping pi\u00f1a coladas, singing tunes (Jimmy Buffet, anyone?), and wearing palm prints is de rigueur. Don’t forget you can customize this invite by changing the headline or whatever you’d like to make it your own.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0Set up a DIY lei-making station where guests can get crafty either with real or faux florals. You could also serve rum punch in hollowed-out pineapples.<\/p>\n Design: Claudia Owen<\/p><\/div>\n Just because you can’t be together in person doesn’t mean you can’t get together. This fabulous Confetti<\/a>\u00a0Shimmer <\/a>online invitation<\/a>\u00a0is modern, chic, and streaming with excitement. (Because streamers, get it?) This versatile invite is also an excellent option to customize for anniversary celebrations, shower invitations, happy hours, and more.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0If you’re planning a celebration for a loved one in the midst of social distancing, order a bottle of Champagne (or their favorite drink) and have it delivered to them before the party begins.<\/p>\n Design: Manu Torres<\/p><\/div>\n Cake and booze? Yes, please! This eye-catching Abstract Rainbow<\/a>\u00a0birthday invitation\u00a0has all the colors and all the fun. Available in four different color combinations, this bold invitation design\u00a0lets invitees know that wallflowers need not apply. If you want to change up the phrasing, no problem. Wine and cheese? Tea and crumpets? It’s up to you! There’s also a fun virtual party version<\/a>\u00a0of this invite.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0Keep the rainbow theme alive by hiring a face painter or having a painting party theme\u00a0so guests can get in touch with their inner van Gogh.<\/p>\n Design: Clementine Creative<\/p><\/div>\n Good morning, sunshine!\u00a0Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and your birthday is the most important day of the year. So why not put these two together? This tantalizing Pancake Breakfast invite<\/a>\u00a0is the perfect starting point for a pre-noon celebration with your nearest and dearest.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0Whether you’re setting up a breakfast station at home or hosting brunch\u00a0at your favorite restaurant, you can’t go wrong with stacks and stacks of pancakes, maple syrup, and plenty of butter.<\/p>\n Design: Jen Montgomery<\/p><\/div>\n Like the luxe material that inspired its name, this Trendy Terrazzo invitation<\/a>\u00a0is a handsome piece of work that comes alive with vibrant colors and patterns. Available in a variety of color palettes, this versatile design would also work for wedding invitations, engagement party invites, or even a bridal shower invitation.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0Take inspiration from this popular motif<\/a>\u00a0and have a retro-style party with classic cocktails, vintage tunes, and guests wearing their favorite Mad Men-era ensembles.<\/p>\n Design: Claudia Owen<\/p><\/div>\n Most birthday celebrations involve lively interactions and plenty of “outdoor voice” conversation. But if you’re ready to keep it low-pro and indulge in some R&R, this Spa Day invitation<\/a>\u00a0will set the tone from the get-go. By the way, wouldn’t this also be a fun pre-baby shower<\/a>\u00a0idea for a mom-to-be? Yeah, we thought so too.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0Check with the spa ahead of time to confirm whether they’ll let you bring in cupcakes\u00a0and Champagne for a pre- or post-massage toast to the birthday girl\u00a0or birthday boy.<\/p>\n Design: Jessica Williams<\/p><\/div>\n Gather your friends for this Brew Bash<\/a>\u00a0party invitation that promises a fun time for all. With its clean, simple design and striking illustration, your guests will be counting the days till they can raise a glass.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0Depending on where you’re hosting the party, consider hiring a cicerone<\/a>\u00a0(aka a beer sommelier) to walk you and your crew through some of the crafty sips. You could even create a beer flight based on the guest of honor\u2019s preferences.<\/p>\n Design: Emma Wassmer<\/p><\/div>\n Whether the birthday girl\u00a0or boy is turning five or 25, this Magical <\/a>Unicorn<\/a>\u00a0<\/a>birthday invitation<\/a>\u00a0is perfect for anyone who’s young at heart. The lovely watercolor\u00a0design and whimsical unicorn\u00a0illustration would be the ideal complement to an enchanted forest or \u2014 dare we say \u2014 disco unicorn-inspired soiree.<\/p>\n Pro tip: <\/strong>For a fun party idea, order a handmade unicorn<\/a>\u00a0pi\u00f1ata<\/a>. The only problem will be that it’s so cute you won’t want to break it. (You could always use it as a centerpiece and keep it as a fun memento from the day’s fiesta.)<\/p>\n Design: Ashley Ottinger<\/p><\/div>\n When your friend has made it to the big 4-0, it’s time to go big or go home. And this classic Finally Forty <\/a>birthday invitation<\/a>\u00a0is just the ticket. While we love the bold yellow hue, you can customize it to virtually any color, text, background, and envelope.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0To mark a milestone birthday, create a special hashtag that guests can share on social media. Then, once the festivities are over, everyone can look back on the previous night\u2019s shenanigans.<\/p>\n Design: Claudia Owen<\/p><\/div>\n This delightful Backyard <\/a>BBQ<\/a>\u00a0Grill invitation<\/a>\u00a0conjures up warm summer days and delicious food off the grill. While this design is perfect for a birthday party, you can easily customize it for the Fourth of July, Labor Day, or whenever you feel like gathering friends for a backyard cookout.<\/p>\n Pro tip:<\/strong>\u00a0If some of your guests have dietary restrictions \u2014 hello, vegans and vegetarians \u2014 then be sure to have some meatless burgers and hot dogs on hand.<\/p>\n Birthdays are a gift in themselves, and it’s always nice to share good times with friends and family.
