1st bday - invitation opinions please

I cannot believe it - but I am getting ready to make the invitations for Talia's 1st bday party Chat Icon

So I am looking for some opinions please.

We are throwing her a Luau - so I have basically decided on simple invitations like these which are really cheap and I would have to fill out myself:

Or something more creative (which I always opt for - but I guess in this situation I want to make sure it is still fun even though it's not theme related). I would use a pic like this one maybe:

and the invitation would read something like...

"Let your Hair Down and party...celebrate Talia's First Birthday....yadi yadi yadi...

Any thoughts on these ideas...or any other ideas you may have would be great...

Maybe I can take a pic of her with her hair crazy with a hawaiin outfit or something to tie in the theme??

I love the "let your hair down" theme. I would take a pic of her in hawaiian getup. When you're ready to do the invite, you could have the wording written on her grass skirt (if you have one).

Very cute idea!!!!Chat Icon

I love the hair down idea- she is too cute.

Does this mean I have an excuse to buy Katie a grass skirt?

I like the theme - but think you need her in at least a bathing suit.
