Writing invitations can be easy or somewhat difficult. Ranging from the basic information to a long description of an event. There are basic guidelines that you know follow when writing any type of information; whether it’s a birthday invitation or a wedding invitation, you should always follow these following steps.
1) Names of hosts or sponsoring organization
2) Type of event (Birthday, wedding, business meeting, etc...)
3) Place
4) Date
5) Time
6) RSVP date and phone number
7) Any special dress requirements
8) Rain date (if any)
9) Be specific about who is invited, whether addressee only, with guest or with spouse and children. (Do not forget this)!!
Although, you might think that invitation to all events should be the same, you are wrong. If it is a business meeting, be more formal, if it is birthday or graduation, have more fun with it! Also, if guests are not from your local area, provide a map to location of the event. In addition, send invitation between 8-2 weeks in advance. Weddings need more time and dinners or small meetings need the least.

I like the point you made on "what to wear" it can be confusing at times depending on the occasion.
ReplyDeleteGreat video, there's some great tips in it! I like that you mentioned to be specific about who you are inviting, many times that can be confusing, and people don't know if they are aloud to bring a date, or their children. Good job.
ReplyDeleteI like your title and your content. Just try and infuse more "I" in your last post. Have you ever had to write invitations....or what about the invitations you have received...the good ones and the not so good ones.
