I need help with invitation wording because I don't want people to talk about me on a message board ![]()
Here's the background info: My aunt wants to throw my mom a surprise birthday party this month except my mom's birthday isn't until November. She also wants it to be a luau party. I'm having a difficult time with the wording. I need something that goes after "her birthday isn't until November" that ties together the luau part. Here is what I have so far:
The sun is hot,
the water's cool.
Won't you join us
as we party in the pool?
Her birthday isn?t until November,
We're having a luau party!
We want you to come.
mom is turning 60!
Surprising her will be fun!
No gifts necessary.
Regrets only
Re: Invitation help
But we wanted you to remember?
That's the only word I can really think of that even approximately rhymes with November.
That could work. Now I need votes. Which one?
A
The sun is hot,
the water's cool.
Won't you join us
as we party in the pool?
Her birthday isn?t until November,
and we wanted you to remember,
we're having a luau party!
We want you to come.
mom is turning 60!
Surprising her will be fun!
or B
The sun is hot,the water's cool.
Won't you join us
as we party in the pool?
We wanted you to remember, Her birthday isn?t until November,
so we're having a luau party
and we want you to come.
mom is turning 60!
Surprising her will be fun!
I vote B.
This changes the meter and rhyme scheme, but how about something along the lines of this:
Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;}
The sun is hot,
the water's cool.
Won't you join us
for a party in the pool?
Mom?s turning 60 in November,
But for a birthday to remember
We?re planning an early luau surprise!
So say you can come
For this birthday fun
As we celebrate ?til sunrise! [or] with all her favorite guys!
(The last line still needs work.)
