- Create an invitation that maps out the life of your guest of honor. Begin with the year he was born and then move into his childhood years, adding the first year of school. Then add the teenage years, college years and so forth. Fill in all the special things that happened as well, such as awards she achieved during her youth, first date, marriage date, the birthday's of children, and retirement date. The goal of this time line is to introduce your guest of honor way before the party even begins. And though many of your guests may have some knowledge of your guest of honor's life, it is always a spectacular thing to see one's accomplishments laid out in black and white.
- With just a little research, you can find out a lot about the year of your guest of honor's birth. Finding out these events and listing them all together makes for a very interesting and creative birthday invitation. How to find out about your guest of honor's birth year is simple, just go to your favorite search engine and type in, "what happened in 19...?" Multiple websites will come up, and these sites will give you the exact dates of the events that happened during that year, along with a brief description of the event. List your findings on a fun and creative invitation.
- Find a baby picture of your guest of honor, which will probably be black and white. Then find a recent picture of her and make an invitation where the two pictures are side by side, so that they can be easily compared. To make a fun game out of it, add in baby pictures of her parents and other siblings and have your guests try to figure out which picture is the guest of honor. Give out party favors to those that pick the right picture. It may surprise you how much of a challenge this game will be--genetics can be very tricky, especially among baby features.
