How to Write Out a Bachelorette Party Invitation

Use bachelorette party invitations to reveal the theme and style of the party.

Bachelorette parties range from a traditional pub crawl to a five-day stint at a luxury resort, or even a quiet evening at home. According to Heather McPherson at Brides.com, more and more brides and their maids are using the bachelorette party as a time of bonding between girlfriends before the wedding, and events often become multi-night affairs that fit the personality and taste of the bride. Generally, it's the maid of honor and the bridesmaids who plan this pre-wedding party, and it's important to use the bachelorette party invitation as a way to let guests know what to expect.

Instructions

How to Write Out a Bachelorette Party Invitation

1. Specify the bride on the top line. Keep it simple with a phrase like "Join us for a bachelorette party in honor of Susan Smith."

2. Experiment with styles and voice; if you are planning an elegant affair, use formal language, such as "We request the honor of your presence at a bachelorette party for Susan Smith." If you are planning a rowdier evening, consider "Join us for a wild time at Susan's bachelorette party!"

3. List essential details, such as the date, time and location of the party. Include the full address of where guests are expected to meet.

4. Clearly state expectations for guests using concise language. If the party is a multi-day event or involves traveling, let guests know what the expenses are, what is included and what is not included. If the trip itinerary is more complex, consider including these details on a separate sheet.

5. Mention if any elements of the party are a surprise for the bride, so no one ruins the surprise by telling her.

6. Include a date by which guests are expected to RSVP.
