When should I send out party invitations?

Consider sending out your invitations about 4-6 weeks before the party date. If you are throwing your party during a busy time of year (such as the holidays or summer vacation), you may want to send them out even earlier to ensure that everyone can attend.

What food should I serve at a boys birthday party?
