A Little Invitation Etiquette

• Birthday invitations should go out at least two weeks prior to the party. Make sure you allow yourself enough time to make or order them and still meet this timeframe.
• Note any special instructions on the invitation (ex: bring a towel, bring your pillow, come dressed like a cowboy or cowgirl, it's a surprise...don't tell, no gifts please, etc.).
• Give an RSVP date so you can get a firm headcount for planning food, activities, prizes and/or goody bags. Make sure you give a phone number and contact name.
• For children's parties, if you'd like the parents to stay with their child for the party be sure to note that on the invitation.
• Last but not least, stick with the theme! It really does make a difference!
