Invitation wording, WDYT?

Hi, I normally don't post on this board, but I have a question on invitation wording for an 80's themed surprise 30th bday party I want to throw for my H.  Do you think this sounds bad for a party that is being thrown for a guy?

Dust off your leg warmers and tease up your hair, we are having an 80's party, be there or be square!

 ...of course I will add my H's name and date, time, location of the party, rsvp info, etc...

 But, WDYT of the main wording of the invite?  Is it too girly for a party when the guest of honor is a guy? 

Do you have any other ideas on wording that could be used if you don't like what I have so far? 

Thanks for your help!!!

Re: Invitation wording, WDYT?

  • I think it sounds Ok...if you wanted to make it less 'girly' I would swap out leg warmers for something else that can be more guy related...parachute pants?...but that kind of messes up the rhyme sequence a bit. I think the 'tease up your hair' is fine since guys hair in the 80's was just as crazy as the girls.
  • You could sub ghetto blaster for leg warmers. 
  • Break out your Member's Only jacket, slip on your acid washed jeans, pop your collar and join us for a trip back to the 80's to celebrate Joe's birthday.  Michael, WHAM and Madonna will be spinning the tunes, all we need is You!

    I would add more references to the 80's that make sense for your crowd.  have fun.
