Planning a New Year's Eve party

New Year's Eve is a late night, so think about the details guests will worry about: how they'll get home, whether there's parking, whether children are welcome, and when dinner is served. A short line on each, in the invitation, saves a dozen messages. If you're on a terrace or rooftop for the countdown, mention it, so guests bring a warm layer for midnight.

A family-friendly New Year

If children are coming, plan an early "midnight": a countdown at nine or ten o'clock with sparklers and cake, before the little ones go to sleep. Mention it on the invitation, so parents know there's a celebration for the whole family, not just a late-night party.

Frequently asked questions

What should a New Year party invitation say?

The date and start time, the venue, the theme or dress code, and how to RSVP. A fun line about the new year sets the mood.

When should New Year invitations be sent?

By mid-December, so guests can plan before other invitations arrive.

What is a good dress code for a New Year party?

Black and gold, glitter, or a theme like Bollywood or retro disco. Mention it on the invite.

Can I send a New Year invitation on WhatsApp?

Yes. A link invite with the time, map and RSVP works well, with a festive line in the message.
