1st birthday party invite list question

Who did you invite?


Most of my friends don't have kids, DHs friends (mostly) do. I know they dont have to have kids to be invited, but im not sure where to draw the line. Torn about if we should just go all out and invite everyone, or if we should limit it somehow. Then there's the whole thing that i feel like if i invite person A, i have to invite person B.

Argh.. it's all so complicated Chat Icon


How many people did you have at DC's 1st birthday?



The other problem we run into, also, is that we're having the party at our house and there's a possibility that our block party might be that day. It's good and bad. (well, i guess the only bad thing really is the parking and random people crashing our little party lol)... but we're only 3 houses in from the corner, so that part shouldn't be too bad.

Any advice, guidance, direction you can offer? Chat Icon

We invited about 100 people to Noah's...and will probably invite about 100 people to the girls. I think Noahs ended up being like 85+ people....

We had Noahs outside, no real concerns about space, the girls we will and we are gonna par down a " bit" and inviting more people who have kids then who don't.

we're having it outside, too (well, at our house, so indoor/outdoor i guess) and we're getting tents and all that stuff. We'll probably end up inviting about 85ish- just didn't know if that was crazy or not lol)

We just had family and a few of our friends that have kids. If we invited our friends without kids it would have been torture for them, so they were spared. Chat Icon

Re: 1st birthday party invite list question

DS1's 1st b-day we had 85 people, almost all family (only 1 table was friends). He was the first baby in the family on either side for 30 years, so it was the first b-day party in that many years.

DS2's b-day was slightly less at 60 ppl. We also cut-off 2 families from Will's side, but we invited a lot more friends :)
