We are going to be having an "Ugly Christmas Sweater" party for all our friends in mid-December. We will of course be providing appetizers and some alcohol, probably a keg and one or two other options (I was thinking a big pitcher of sangria and one other mixed drink). Some of our friends tend to drink a lot though, and I really don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on alcohol. Also, the last time we had a party I spent so much money on food and alcohol, and then a lot of people backed out last minute so I felt like it was a waste. So, the point of this is I'm trying to find a polite way to say "bring your own booze because we won't be providing enough for everyone especially if you plan to get smashed". Any ideas? Is this rude?
Re: Invite wording..need your advice!
Me too, or maybe if you want to be funny put 'all you alky's byob' or something, lol
I agree, straight to the point and acceptable. Have fun, sounds like a fun party
I think BYOB would be appropriate.
We had an "ugly sweater"/holiday party last winter and it was so much fun! We turned it into a contest and gave the winner a tacky trophy. We turned on some music and had a little fashion show in our living room. People got really creative on the catwalk. It's amazing what people will do to win, lol... It sounds pretty goofy, but it was a blast!
Have fun!
