How to Write Christmas Party Invitations

by Kimberly Ripley

Step 1

Describe the kind of Christmas party you will be hosting so people will know what to wear. Use words such as "casual," "semi-formal" or "formal" to describe the tone of the party.
Step 2

Suggest the type of food that will be served at your Christmas party, so guests know if they should eat before arriving or expect to have a full meal at the party. Use phrases such as "Join us for drinks and snacks" or "Please join us for dinner" so guests will be prepared.
Step 3

Clearly indicate all important information the party guests will need to know, including the date and time of the Christmas party, as well as the address. If the address is not easy to find, consider including directions on a separate sheet of paper.
Step 4

Address envelopes by hand in ink pen instead of using computer-generated labels.

Address your Christmas party invitations only to those you wish to invite. Do not address an envelope to "The Baker Family" if you wish to invite only the adults in the family. Instead, address the invitation to "Mr. and Mrs. Adam Baker" or "Adam and Susan Baker."
