Mine is coming up.

I'm excited about it! Thinking of doing barefoot bowls and dinner or canapés. Should be relaxed and fun.

Just some questions if you have had a 30th or other big milestone party...

Did you have speeches?
How many guests did you have?
Did you pay for all your guests or did you put a cost per person on the invite?

There are a few people who I want to invite but to their partners (as I don't really know them very well). is it okay not to invite partners (ESP if I'm the one paying)?

Thanks in advance
