An “invitation only” party is a good idea for a number of reasons, but primarily because you get to control who is invited and who will join the celebration. No party welcomes teenage gate crashers. With this in mind, we designed a unique, fun and nostalgic paper invitation that included all pertinent details for guests and parents of guests.

Because our daughter and son have many interests and hobbies, we struggled a bit with a theme that epitomized both their interests. In the end, we decided on our daughter’s love of music and our son’s fondness for the “hoops” as a theme for the party. Since no birthday with teenagers would be complete without a picture to show how far they’ve come, we included an adorable picture of them together when they were two years old.
