K-2: Create Party Invitations

In the movie, everyone is invited to a wedding. Now, it's your turn to invite YOUR friends and family to a party.

Why are you having a party?

Will your party have a theme? If so, what will it be? (For instance, you could have a Twilight theme party. Everyone could come dressed as a vampire or werewolf. If you're throwing a party for a holiday, that could be the theme.)
