Invitations Ideas for a Teen Halloween Party

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Matt Cail and on behalf of Expert Village I'm here today to show you how to throw a Halloween party for teenagers. With your day selected now you have to get the word out people have to know that you're having a party, to have to know all the details when, where, well they don't necessarily need to know how and why. But all the rest they need to know and that means you need to get invitations out pronto. There are a couple of ways you can do this; first off you can send traditional mailed invitations or disadvantages with this is that you have to mail them out and takes time. It takes longer for people to look and open them and respond to them, and it means you have to send invitations out really early otherwise it's going to be too late, people will make plans, you're more than likely going to be facing competition. If you're trying to hold a Halloween party and your class gets the word out early, early October 3-4 weeks in advance for a Halloween party that's targeted to teens is the best way to go. Any earlier than that it'll follow any social radar that any later than that you're going to have problems with competition peoples counters are already filled up. The other thing to keep in mind is an alternative to paper invitations is using websites there's lots of websites out there where you can also send invitations. Living in an electronic world now we can certainly send out invitations this way and your response will be quicker reminders will be easier, and in general for the younger generation they're going to be more comfortable probably with that than a card."
