What to Include in Your Party Invitation
The look and feel of your invitation will depend on your party theme, but, according to Announcingit.com, all party invitations should state:-
Purpose
– Make it clear to your guests what event the invitation is for. Are you hosting a pool party, or are you inviting your employees to a Christmas party? Whatever the event, use a large font and a contrasting color to the background so that it stands out on the invitation. -
Name of honoree and/or host
– If you are creating an invitation on behalf of someone else, you may wish to include their name as the host. This may also be the case for a club party or corporate party invitation. If the party is for a specific person, e.g. you are inviting guests to a birthday party, make the honoree’s name pride of place on the invitation. -
Day, date and time
– Why list the day and date? To provide clarity! Some people will remember that the party was on a certain Saturday. Others will remember it by the day of the month. It’s also a good idea to include the start and finish times so guests can make transportation arrangements and make plans for the rest of the day. As an example, you could write “Sunday, October 1, 2017, 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.” -
Place
– When sending out invitations, you want to provide the correct information to help guests find the event easily. Many cities have similar-sounding street names, such as Sycamore Road, Sycamore Avenue, Sycamore Court, etc. so it’s best to provide the full street address including city, state and ZIP Code. If the event location is potentially difficult to find, consider including the name and phone number of the venue. If your party is being held in two locations — perhaps you’re inviting family to the graduation ceremony at the college and back to the house for the celebration — make this clear on the invitation. -
RSVP
– You want to know how many people will come to the party or event. And if you’ve hired a caterer, you may need to provide a final headcount several days before the event. In the invitation, let people know how they should respond, and by what date. The easiest and most common way to encourage responses is to request an RSVP, an acronym for the French phrase, Répondez, s’il vous plaît, which translates loosely as “Respond, please.” For example, at the end of your invitation, you might include, “RSVP to [contact name] at [phone number] by [date].” -
Dress code
– If there is a specific dress code for your party, spell it out for your guests. Whether it be a black-tie corporate event or a princess-themed birthday party, giving instructions well in advance will ensure that guests are wearing the correct attire and that nobody is left out of the fun.
