How to invite people for Birthdays
A great way to invite people to a birthday is a short, happy note with the name, the date, and when to arrive. A child's party with an end time is different from a dinner for a parent. Say which one it is.
Send children's parties two to three weeks ahead, and milestone birthdays a month or more when people travel. An end time is a kindness for families.
What should a birthday invite include?
The person's name, the date, the start time, the place, and an end time for a children's party.
