Birthday Invitation Wording: Choosing the Right WordsBirthday invitation wording is as important as the design of the invitations themselves. The words that would be used in the invites should get the attention of the recipients and make them want to attend the celebration. The message on the invitations will depend mainly on the age of those who will be attending. There are several elements to an effective birthday invitation wording. First is the name of the recipient. It would add a personal touch if the invitations are addressed to each guest with their names printed or written on them. The age of the celebrant can be mentioned if he or she is 18 years old or younger. If not, asking the celebrant whether it is okay to put his age in the invitation might be necessary. Invitation wording can be about the celebrant. Verses about the birthday person or background information about the places or pets that he or she loves can be incorporated in the words. Another option is to highlight the personality of the celebrant. Ask friends to describe the person and put the comments on the card with a phrase like “I remember when…” Aside from personal phrases about the person, instructions on the activities that would be held during the party can also be used as invitation message. If a treasure hunting or costume party will be held, instructions on what’s expected from the guests can be written on the invitation. If making messages is too much of an effort, buying generic invitations is another option. Various kinds of invites that contain messages appropriate for the occasion are available in the market. These ready-made invitations are for people who are always in a hurry and cannot be bothered to compose their own messages. The problem with these generic invitations is that the messages are also generic and choices are somewhat limited. Birthday invitation wording is an important part of the whole invitation. The message that the guests will see in the invitation can influence their decision on whether to attend the event or not. It is also a chance to say something warm and personal about the celebrant. However they are done, they should convey a message of joy and sincerity that recipients will appreciate.
