How do I Write a Graduation Party Invitation?

    Overview

    • 1). Look through several graduation themes and pick your favorite. The theme should depend on the age of the graduate. Children graduating from kindergarten may require a colorful, child-friendly theme, while an invitation for a college graduation may require an adult-appropriate theme.

    • 2). Write the tone of the invitation. The tone can be formal, informal, playful or poetic. Keep your intended guests in mind when you decide the tone; if the graduate is a child, you must decide whether you want to choose a tone suitable for the children who will attend the graduation party or the parents and guardians bringing them.

    • 3). Write who is throwing the party, and who is the guest of honor. Word the invitation as if the graduate is throwing the celebration, or list a sponsor. For example, if the graduate is throwing the party, state, "Delia invites you to celebrate her graduation," but if Delia's parents are throwing the party, state something like, "Mr. and Mrs. Thompson cordially invite you to their daughter Delia's graduation celebration."

    • 4). Explain the purpose of the event. Be sure to indicate the level of school the graduate has completed.

    • 5). Write the day, date and time. Decide upon format. You can opt for a formal manner, putting date before month. For example, "Sunday, the third of August." Others choose a more conventional manner, "Sunday, August third." Also, decide how you want the time of of the event to read; some spell out the time (five o'clock). Others opt for standard format (5:00 or 5 p.m.).

    • 6). Write the location of the party. Provide a complete address and directions.

    • 7). Write any special instructions. Inform whether the event is formal or informal, and provide instructions on type of attire. If the event is geared toward getting a child off to college, indicate where the gift registry is located. Some graduation parties are pot luck or BYOB (Bring Your Own Bottle), depending on the graduate's age, so you will also need to include this information.

    • 8). Ask for RSVP information, if necessary. Leave your phone number and email address at the bottom of the invitation, so guests will know to inform you of their plans, and how many will attend.
