birthday party invitations sample wording image
Zandra P
Instead of recieving gifts as a wedding present my fiance and I would like to recieve monetary gifts instead. I would like to know how could this be worded with my wedding invitations.
Answer
There are no sample ways that won't offend virtually every single person you invite.
1. Weddings are about celebrating your marriage, your friends, and your family. They are not a fundraiser.
2. You NEVER should include gift information in your invites anyway.
3. To ask for money is exceedingly tacky. First, it assumes that you are even getting gifts. Secondly, it is like asking people to prove how much they like you via money. Tacky Tacky Tacky
4. Even money dances are horrendous. Again, a wedding is a celebration, not a place where money should even be discussed. I dislike money trees, but at least a guest can walk right by it without a big too-doo.
If you need money for a honeymoon, set up a honeymoon registry. I would probably dump an invitation that included gift info and send only a card if it was begging for money. It just lacks class, etiquette, and common sense.
Dear Jane,
I'm having a birthday party next week and I'd like you to come. Don't bother bringing me a gift as all I really want is cash.
Signed,
Jenny

What are some Halloween/Birthday party ideas?
ages 12 and 13
Answer
heres some
Invitations:
Any haunted house.
Decorations:
Black balloons and black crepe paper.
Any Halloween decorations you may have.
"Specimen Jars" can be anything that has the potential of looking yucky. Soak off labels and make new ones with what they would be in your "lab."
Vienna sausages (baby food jar): Fingers
Shredded red cabbage or sour kraut: Brains
Hard boil eggs, crack shells and soak in tea, peel: Eyes.
Tip: Look down the food isles at the grocery store.
Hangman's noose hanging. Add a cows tongue to the table. Dried ice around punch bowl for effect.
Make an operating table:
Need:
1 plastic skeleton, apart at the waist
1 plastic table cloth
Boiled and oiled spaghetti
Lay skeleton on table and cover with cloth, except head. Slit area over stomach. Place pan of spaghetti for guts. In heart area you can place something that moves. I used a jumping spider (the kind on a air tube), turned upside down. The flipper on the bottom would jump when we squeezed the puffer.
Outside Decorations:
Create tombstones, These can be made from old plywood and spray painted black and silver. Paint in the words.
Here lies:
Ted N. Buried
U. R. Next
Fester N Rot
Here Lies Good old Fred...A Great Big Rock Fell on His Head
Food and Snacks:
This is really gross but fun.
Need:
1 Cat litter pan
1 Cat litter scoop
1 large box Grape Nuts
1 large sack Tootsie Rolls (unwrapped)
Box powdered sugar
Mix the Grapenuts with the powdered sugar. Pour into litter box and add Tootsie rolls, stir in. Set scoop in box. Let guests help themselves or offer while you sample.
Witches Fingers:
Long chicken strips
Worm Casserole:
6 oz egg noodles and 8 oz spaghetti, cooked. Mix with 1 Tablespoon butter and 1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese. Bake until melted. Sprinkle with bread crumbs (dirt) and bake until toasted.
Ghosts:
Dip nutter butter cookies in melted while chocolate. Use two mini chocolate chips for eyes-- great ghost-- Stacey
Spiders:
Use Oreo cookies lift top put three strands of licorice across cookie and put top back on. Use two dots of icing to anchor red hots for eyes.-- Stacey
Punch:
Make a punch from Orange Kool-Aid and float plastic spiders in it. (not for very young children)
Goodies:
Need 1 large pumpkin. Cut open lid for pumpkin and loosen up the insides. Remove some of the insides. Place coins, or small plastic toys, inside pumpkin guts. Have kids place hand inside to find their prize. OR instead of pumpkin guts, clean out pumpkin completely and add spaghetti.~ angela
Games and Activities:
Mystery Boxes
Need boxes with lids with a different "spooky" item in each one. Decorate the boxes with special effects, spider webs etc.
