Most birthday party invitations resemble each other. They list where when and how the event will take place. Some may contain a verse, though the majority rely on a simple introductory sentence.

The invitation is the first aspect of the party that a guest will get acquainted with. It needs to impress or make people laugh. The invitation should suggest what the party will be, what people are invited to it and what atmosphere is to be expected.

The right selection of invitation wording can help you achieve all of these goals. It takes little time and brainstorming to come up with original wording for a birthday invite.

List the Important Information
Before focusing on the creative element, you need to list all of the important invitation information.

Who is inviting the person? When is the party taking place and which venue has been selected for it? RSVP information? Theme? Dress code? Any suggestions about the best choice of presents?

If the venue is difficult to find, you might consider adding a map or some directions. This will make it easier for guests to find their way.

Use Verses
How do you get the invitation started? The wording will be more original if you add some cute verse. The verse will also be used to set the mood and to provide hints about the party theme.

You can use some of the following verses to add to your birthday invite:

Candies, drinks and cakes are sweet, come to our party, we promise a treat!

Love is in the air, spring has come, we’re holding b-day party that is going to be fun!

The summer’s hot
But we know how to cool
You can do it too
Join our party at the pool
You are invited to (name of birthday person)’s birthday party

(name of birthday person) is (age)
And it’s time to get
Organized and ready
To hold a party (he/she) will never forget!
Join us to dance and laugh and sing
For such occasions true joy can bring!

Use Your Sense of Humor
A nice invitation will be a humorous one. It will make people smile the minute they see it. Use your sense of humor or pick one of the following samples to make the invite really amusing:

(name of birthday person) has grown one year older
And she/he would need a supportive shoulder
While we’re still looking for the fountain of youth,
Come to the party and help him/her handle the truth.
You are invited to a birthday party on (date) at (venue)

Our cute and energetic shorty
Has finally managed to turn 40 (for the third time in a raw)
Come and help us have a party
That we promise to be hearty!

Make the Message As Specific As Possible
You should remember to include specific details to add some clarity.

If the birthday is going to have a special theme, focus on it when wording the invite. The theme can be used in a humorous and creative way.

You should also select appropriate paper and fonts to make the message even stronger. Remember that every detail will count and provide the people invited to the birthday party with specific information.
