Invitations

When a kid receives an invitation to a party, they are excited to attend and be part of the celebration. Imagine how happy they would be to be part of a Star Wars party if guests are impressed with the design and presentation of the invitation.

An invitation should be perfect cause if it is not, the kid’s guardian may decide to forego instead of attending the party. They may not be as keen to attend, nor will they let their kids be there if they find the invitation lacking or if it is poorly designed.

It should always have complete details of what the party is about if it is a birthday party or just a simple theme party.

Inform the guest of the time and when or where the party is going to happen. Instructions about the venue if it is an unfamiliar place, attach the map or instructions on how to get there. If it is a costume party, of course, you can let them know what costumes they need to be in. If the invitation already has the theme, title, and design of the Star Wars party, you may let the guest know whether they need to arrive wearing a certain color or if they can go casually.

It is also imperative to ask the guest if they will bring another person with them so you can plan accordingly. Here is where RSVP is very useful.

If it is a children’s party and parents are not allowed, also include that information, or the parents and the kid’s guardian must be counted.

Inform the guest of what food you will be serving. If it is just a peanut butter jelly sandwich or if it is just cookies and cupcakes. Parents will inform you beforehand of any instructions or information about their child that you need to note.

In this instance, since it is a Star Wars party, you may use a traditional Star Wars Invitation that you can purchase in sets. If you want it customized, you can also request for such and if you need to add other information or you want a whole different Star Wars design.
