Wording on party invitations is key to setting the right tone for the event.
One of the first things you should do toward successfully planning a memorable Sweet 16 party is to create interesting invitations. The way you word your birthday invitations, as well as their overall appearance, can influence party attendance. Writing birthday invitations effectively will set the tone for the party. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Allude to the theme of your party right away, as well as the fact that it is a 16th birthday party. For instance, if you are having an island-themed party, you might want to write something like, "Join us on the sandy shores of Hawaii for Karen's Sweet 16 party!"
2. Include the birthday girl's first and last name in the primary section of the invitation. If you print, "Join us for Susan's Sweet 16," your guests could be confused about which Susan is celebrating her birthday, as mixing up names can be a common mistake in a teenager's social circle that may include many friends and acquaintances.
3. Add a brief poem or saying about turning 16. This can help to stress the importance of this particular birthday. For instance, try something like, "She's not the same little girl...She's really making a scene...Our sweet Susan is a young woman now, she's turning sweet 16!"
4. Include the details of the party in a way that matches the overall theme. Think of a presentation that will be attractive to teenagers. For instance, if you are having a party that features a live band, you might want to use invitations that look like tickets. When speaking of the party's time and place, you could use a phrase like, "Main Event Location and Time."
5. Include a phrase that asks guests to please "R.S.V.P." When entertaining teenagers, apart from needing to know how much food and drink to prepare, you'll also need to know how many chaperones you will need for crowd control.
