Your Birthday Party – Why Wait For Someone To Throw You A Great Party When You Can Do It Yourself?
So no one is throwing you a big spectacular party this year to commemorate your birthday? Then this is the perfect opportunity to finally get the birthday party of your dreams by planning it yourself! No, you’re not going to raise any eyebrows or get any strange looks. Just follow these simple tips.
Birthday Party Invitations
It doesn’t matter whether you go for the beautiful 5 x 7 photo birthday invitations with multiple photos of yourself or just invite people over the phone. What does matter is how the invitation is worded. Instead of projecting that the party is all about honoring you, let your guests know that, In fact, it’s about honoring them. They are the blessings in your life. And as you come to the close of another year, there’s nothing that would make you happier than to share this special day with them.
What About Gifts?
Their presence is your present. So, of course, you don’t ask for gifts. Actually, you might want to discourage them. You could even include that point in the invitations. You may still get a few gifts, but the objective of this birthday party is to have a great time celebrating with people you care about, and not accumulating more stuff.
Another option would be to say something like, “I don’t need anything, except your company. But if you still feel like you should give me something, a donation to the animal shelter would be cool.” Let you guests know that you’re not having this party to get a pile of presents, but to spend meaningful time with them.
