Question about birthdays - WDYT??

[BrightSparkles]

So my birthday and DH's birthday are 5 days apart. I'd really like to do something this year for it - just something small with some good friends. I was thinking maybe like a ****tail party. This can be expensive depending on how many people you have. These friends are friends that usually get us each a present.

Would it be rude if I said to them this year - rather than 2 presents, this is what we were thinking and can you bring a bottle of something??? I don't need more stuff i won't use and this way i can see everyone and have fun at the same time? WDYT - too tacky??

Awesome idea and I know if I was invited I would be busting to get your party and have some fun drinks!

I had a ****tail party for my 30th ( a year or so ago LOL) One the invite I specified what bottle to bring (ie Vodka, vermouth) etc and it was an awesome night!! My brother had done a ****tail bar course so mixed the drinks and we had finger food (DD1 served - she had a ball) It was an awesome night and everyone had fun. if you need recipe/amounts help just let me know.

I agree its a great idea! If they are anything like me i find it hard finding presents and being told what the person would prefer makes it so much easier.

And a ****tail party sounds awesome

I think that is perfectly resonable.

just make sure you work it out so your not stuck with 5 bottles of vodka and none of something else.

Sounds like it might be a fun night =)
