How do you word an invitation for a joint 30th birthday for me and my sister in law?

birthday party invitations wording for adults image

I would like any help or suggestions as to how to word this. We will have joint family coming obviously, and have some joint friends, but the catch is that we also are inviting some of our own outside friends who won't know the other party girl. We are a little concerned that the guests will think that they will have to buy presents for both people, even though they may not know the other one... Help, what do you think???

Answer
Make up some separate invitations for people that don't know the other b-day girl. Mentioning both b-day girls on the invite may make some people feel obligated to buy a gift for someone they don't know. The mutual invitees would then receive the invitation for both of you. Many people don't buy gifts for adult birthday parties anyway.

How Do I politely say Adults only on a birthday invitation?

I am hosting a surprise party for my husband, and I would really like it to be adults only, the problem is we have a family FULL of children. How do I politely word this on the invite? I don't want to put "adults only" Any other ideas???

Answer
Can the people you're inviting easily attend without their children? If so, I see no problem with putting straight-forwardly on the invites that it's grown-ups only.

If the people (or some of the people) you're inviting cannot easily attend without their children, then maybe a friend or relative would host a kids' party at the same time. You could coordinate the invites so that people realize that their needs are being taken into consideration as well.
