How to invite people for Janmashtami
A great way to invite people for Janmashtami is to be clear about the hour. A midnight celebration and a meal the next day are different invitations. Give the date, the time, and whether there is a puja, bhajan, or dahi handi.
Send it about two weeks ahead. A midnight start needs an honest time so families with children can decide.
Should I say midnight?
Yes, if that is when you begin. Write the time plainly.
