Making The Best Anniversary Invites

By Jody Leach


Any event can be a reason to celebrate such as a birthday, wedding, etc. In certain situations, you have the need to create and send out anniversary invites to everyone you'd like to invite to your party. You can make your invites in a variety of different shapes, sizes, formats, and materials; all depending on your preference and event.

There are a number of different themes you might consider. Your party will have a different dress code, refreshments, and party activities when considering what type of mood you'd like to set. Some may want to take more traditional approaches, while some may want to modernize the party. Others might even want to incorporate different elements from past and present as well. You will be the one who chooses what route you want to take in celebrating the anniversary, and plan accordingly.

An anniversary may celebrate appointment to office, qualification for religious matters, wedding or it may even commemorate the passing on of a particular person. These determine the appearance of the invite. Happy events call for cheerful moods and this can be reflected in the invites. Sad events call for a more sombre mood. This means the invitation cards will differ depending on the type of anniversary.

Depending on your culture, the color of your invites may change as well. Some countries have the tradition of sending out different colored invitations depending the time between the original event and the anniversary. The most common colors are silver and gold, reflecting twenty-five or fifty years respectively. If you wish to do this, you must make the intention obvious on the invites.

The details to be included in the invites should determine its size. The most essential details like the venue, what the event is, the person to get in touch with for confirmation or cancellation of the attendance and any other thing that must be made known to those who will attend have to be included. If you are inviting people who live in other towns, it is wise to include the map of the area and identify the location distinctly. This will prevent the necessity to keep looking for people who have gotten lost.

The appearance of the card needs to be attractive and thus the message should be short and clear. This prevents overcrowding the card in such a way that makes it look terrible. Politeness should be a major factor to prevent putting off the invitees. If there are things that the invitee could help with, the message should be passed politely. The information need to be arranged logically too.

There are people who wish to make their anniversary celebrations charitable. If you are one of these people, you can transform the party into a fundraiser for a certain cause. However, if you do take this route, you'll need to make your intentions obvious in your invites. It's important that you notify your guests of the activities that will take place.

The goal of sending out your invitations is to make your exact intentions clear. You should also keep the physical appearance of the cards appealing. This will aid the clear delivery of your message.
