Luau Invitation Wording that Rhymes
This invitation wording is good for luau-themed potlucks or a random summer celebration. It does not say what the celebration is for, but with a little creativity you could easily work that onto the invitation (like on the front or top of the invitation).
A hula skirt or Hawaiian shirt
Wearing one of these wouldn’t hurt
We’re having a fun luau celebration
With music, games, and a yummy food station
Please bring (item/people) along with you
And we’ll party like we’re in Honolulu!
