Wording on Save the Date 50th Surprise Anniversary Party

by Suzanne
(Avon, Indiana)

My sister and I are throwing my parents a surprise 50th wedding anniversary party. We are preparing save the date cards. On the bottom of the card we are putting an e-mail adress for anyone who has questions about the event. Many people my sister and I do not correspond with on a regular basis and most are out-of-town. My brother is not close to either my sister or myself. He hasn't spoken to us in a couple of years. How should I phrase the e-mail address? Should we put both our names and the e-mail address or just the e-mail address. My sister says we should include who is hosting the event but I don't want to air our family business that my brother is not included.

Hello Suzanne,

Why not just say the hosts are the children of the honorees? It is not necessary to give details in the announcement and I am sure your patents would appreciate that discretion.


Good luck with your party. And best wishes to the happy anniversary couple.
