How would you let people know a birthday party is in the works, but not make your actual invitation yet?

birthday party video invitation image

I want to send a "basic headsup" party invitation to everyone letting them know there will be a party in November. But, mainly asking them to send any kind of picture they have of my husband to me to prepare for a video. But I dont want to send the ACTUAL invitation yet. How would you do it? What would you say?

Answer
Use email or, if you need to, a letter. Say something like, "Hi. Hope your summer is off to a good start! ... I am doing some planning ahead for a birthday party for <insert name here> in November. I want to do a video montage thing, so if you could send me a photo you have of <name>, I'd really appreciate it. If you mail me a photo, put your name on the back somewhere and I'll make sure to get it back to you. If you can email it to me, that's awesome too of course. I want you to know that I really appreciate your help in putting this together and I think the party will be fun. I need the photos by <insert date here> so that I'll have time to get the video put together (or to work with the videographer to get the video put together). I haven't decided when in November to schedule the party, but you are on my list to invite when I get the date and other details irone out. Again, I greatly appreciate it if you have photos of <name> to share and I'll follow up with an invitation you when I get things planned. Sincerely, <your name>"
You can change up wording of course - this is just the friendly request for photos for the video you are planning and a 'heads up' on the upcoming party. If you do know the date, then you can note it in the email or letter as a 'save the date' and note that you'll be sending out formal invitations ahead of the party.
Have fun!

Iam making party invitations for my daughters birthday , and the theme is Charlie and lola. iam trying to get the font and style of the writing, I think ive got the font, but i am trying to get the text to do a sort of loop the loop instead of just writing in s straight line .Anyone know of how to do this, or where to find a good swirly line generator ? Thanks so much

Answer
Photoshop and some of the better free graphics editor with the right plug-ins will allow you to set up writing text on a curve. Best to read the tutorials first.
