What’s a party without guests?

From the Margaritaville House Party Event

It’s time to get your favorite party goers in on the action.

How do you go about inviting guests to your Party? Here's 3 easy ways:
• Email them. Use Your House Party Guest List tool to invite guests online.
• Snail mail them. Use your House Party Guest List tool to print an invitation and then send it out.
• Ask them in person. When you do, be sure to add them to your House Party Guest List so you can track all the RSVP’s in one place.

How are you inviting your guests?

I'll ask most people in person, then follow up with an email so I can track everyone in the House Party system. I also want to get some preparty photos onto the site to get the party started early.

I just want to know why they give all these requirements for being able to actually host this party yet I see all these parties listed with NO guests NO pictures posted, etc. I take the time to invite people and update my RSVPs online and upload pictures and actually HAVE these parties but it seems like even if I didn't, it wouldn't matter! People still get do host a party and get the party packages even when they DON'T seem to bother upholding the requirements. What's the deal?

I think that I will have to come up with a "special invite" for this party. I have one in mind, now to see if it will work!

I am using the e-mail Invites on the Margaritaville Cargo site. They are very cute & tropical. ( I used the one with the parrots, as Parrots are my party theme.) I Then add them to my House Party guest list to track. Those without e-mail are being invited verbally and added to my guest list as well.

I am using the Houseparty invite tool, I (with the help of my kids, of course) am also going to make some really cool creative personalized Carribean invitations to each one of my guests and send them out as well. I want to make sure that everybody knows about my party! It is going to be a huge success!!!! I am so excited about this as it is the first party I got picked to host and what a great one to get chosen for.

I love the convenience and speed of email, but I really do prefer to invite guests to my parties by sending them a good, old-fashioned invitation through, what is now called, snail mail. For last minute and spur of the moment invites I either invite the person verbally, or sometimes, use email. I don't see anything wrong with using email to invite guests, I guess its a 'to each their own, or whatever is most convenient' thing.

If selected I would use the email invite tool and invite in person as well. Following up with a phone call to make sure we had all the favorite ingredients for our guests.

I'm sending a message in a bottle to each guest. I've done the cool flip flop idea in the past--BIG HIT!

I've invited guests via the House Party site; however, I will also send an Evite since people are very familiar with this invitation service (and since some people had a difficult time accessing my last House Party invite).

I invited my parents, my aunt and uncle, and my sister and her family through e-mail. I have a few friends at work that don't really like to RSVP online, so I'm going to print the invitations for them.

I also like the personal touch from time to time.
