How to Word an Invitation for an Office Christmas Party

Office parties allow employees to relax and socialize.

Planning the office holiday party can seem like a daunting task. Between organizing the location, sending out invitations and supervising the event, the task can easily get out of control. Ensure a smooth holiday party and a great turnout by sending out invitations a month in advance. This guarantees that employees will have time to mark the party on their holiday calendar.

Instructions

1. Open with a phrase that indicates that this is an office holiday party. Use phrases such as, "Come celebrate the holiday season at our office holiday party," "Come enjoy some Christmas cheer with your co-workers" or "You are invited to our annual office holiday party."

2. Write out the specific location, time and date. For example, if the party will be at a restaurant, say, for instance, "Cheesecake Factory on Bell and Scottsdale Road at 6:00 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 12."

3. Specify whether spouses and family are invited. You can use phrasing such as, "Bring the family" or "Bring your spouse or significant other for the fun and festivities."
