How to Word Your Invitation When Asking Guests pay their way  

This was a "no host" would be dinner. You could offer appetizers, soft drinks, wine or beer, and then the guests have to pay for their main dinner. Throw in cake or dessert as the host. Depending on the number of people and how close these people are here for you, they could just call.

So you would say,

"We organize a party for John La Casita Restaurant, Wednesday, October 14 at 6 clock

Cocktail 6-7 hours (hors d'oeuvres served)

7 to 9 No Host Dinner

9 -1Celebratory Dessert

Call to let us know:

Something like that ... If you are anything like appetizers and dessert I would not call it an invitation is appropriate. The word the invitation shows that the treatment is to host something.

This type of survey would only be a postcard: "We gather for a Dutch Treat dinner to celebrate John's birthday." To name the date, time, etc., and a phone number to RSVP Yes or No

You are better spending less money onInvitations and decorations, etc. and treating people to coffee and dessert (for those who do not want to eat dinner). Just say, "How Can I Get Lucky?" "As a birthday present and wished that I would love to have you bring me a scratch-off ticket. I'm going to split my winnings with you!"

That is a lot of fun and it's a good way to minimize the guest's fears, "not" bring a gift. That's always a little uncomfortable for some.

I think it is good to ask for the guests to pay their way. They arehave organized the event for them and create the day, bring people together. In explaining the invitations, the activities for the day and say that you would love her to then pay with the family, but on the day a success so that every guest needs for their ticket and this will allow the cruise staff necessary for preparation for the numbers attending. It is not at all sticky. If the guests are missing do not want to pay then.

The first thing you must not call a"Invitation" or use the words "invited" because you are requesting payment. There must be an "announcement".

She would treat a "no host" or "Dutch" to event.

"We want to inform you that we honor," the already "in a Dutch Treat dinner on date and time on the ground."

Insert the card reservations for dinner with prices and selections ... if they come back, you know how many people will be there.

I advise against it, that people tell you, and then pay at the door. Youis probably a problem with people who do not appear to run, and you have reserved / confirmed, one dinner, you have to pay.

The best and proper planning, however, covers for all guests to a celebration cake, coffee, champagne, etc. at an hour after dinner like 8:30 and includes load a map for those who want to come at 6:00 and You pay for the dinner. In this way, all give an invitation and opportunity to come and honor them with your father-in-law. At 8.30 clockwith the full amount you can do special duties and presentations, spreadsheets, etc. are set for dinner guests and extra tables for dessert only guests.
