Abstract

Whether a specific occasion, such as an anniversary or birthday party, or a celebration of a particular season or event, a party can take on an extra dimension with a well-defined theme. There are suggestions for seasonal themes, as well as themes having to do with food and drink. Appropriate invitation formats range from phone calls, to “e-vites,” to formal printed invitations. Tips for determining number and make-up of guests are included.
