"Save the Date" card for a 5th birthday party

[squeaver]

Dd brought it home today from school.

"Just in case you're planning on booking a holiday..."

WTF??

lol how very precious!

fantastic!

I am going to do that

Absolutely hilarious!!!!

It must be a joke???

Mind you, this is the child who had ponies dressed up as unicorns last year so I probably shouldn't be surprised.

oh that's funny. are they going to be cross if you carry on with your life despite the fact that their five year old may or not be having a party!!

Deffo not a joke, wukter.

unicorns!? omg. That's different. Cancel your holiday.

Is their surname Beckham or Price?

I have a fantatic mother at DDs school who chases for reply about three weeks before the party. Personalised cards with photos go out about six weeks before party.

Then it is usually a soft play run of the mill thing. I always want clowns and dancing girls after the build up

I think that was also the party last year with a mobile coffee cart doing lattes for the adults.

Maybe they'll be doing cocktails this year (might suggest that actually).

Lol pag, how disappointing.

We were all saying at school that we're expecting the actual invites to come with confetti at the very least.

You'll have to cancel Barbados, squeaver.

mobile coffee cart?? well in that case i really would save the date!!!

Oh god I hate these and they seem to be proliferating! I can just about see it for a wedding but we are constantly getting these now for any old event...

Is there registry information in it as well?

The mum of one of DS's friends told me about the date of his birthday party a few months ago. Party is in October

Well the unicorns sound OTT but I can't fault the coffee cart concept. I hate going to children's parties where there is nothing for adults. They get wine and posh crisps at ours.

Yes, Tee, the list at Harrods

that's so american, though i thought only for weddings. people are really crackers these days

we do Pimms at DDs birthday. She will forever associate both her birthday and summer fruits with pissed adults.

The coffee cart sounds brilliant. I would crash a kids party forthat Sqeaver.
Loads of hyper kids and caffined out adults sounds great

at Tee2072 and registry info

Well, I figured, a save the date must have registry info.

And perhaps hotel information?

It is a destination birthday, is it not?

But then DD got everything she really needed at christmas. Perhaps just cash so she can buy a pony in a different colour

If I could just think of a humourous poenm with which to couch that suggestion

My daughters five
but saints alive
her toys we stash
so just give cash

She needs a pony
so don't be moany!

Terrible

Good grief, my DD's friends will be lucky if they actually get invitations!
