How should she word the invitations for a potluck...?
My friend is having a pot luck for her daughter's first birthday party and she has NO money to spend. She wants to provide BBQ meats and ask guests to please bring a dish. Also, if the guests want booze, she wants them to bring that on their own too. What's a good way to word that?
Or is it a better idea to skip the bbq meats, and make it strictly pot-luck?
Answers:
Just say "I'm holding a potluck for... bring your favorite dish to celebrate! BBQ chicken/pork/beef will be provided by me. Also the sodas/tea/water. If you'd like to share your favorite beverage, feel free to BYOB! Hope to see you there!
We do this all the time...she could say something like: bring your favorite dish to share, and if you're a drinker, bring your favorite drink (this does not need to be for sharing). Hope to see you here!
P.S. We will be grillin' some meats, so think about complimentary flavors!
Say "I'm have a pot-luck birthday for ... so bring a dish and any thing you might want to drink. Its going to be a good time... blah blah blah..."
Just say something like, "Bring a dish to share"
A lunch meat and veggie tray is less. Make a few side salads and just provide iced tea, pop, and water. She could include BYOB inside the invitations. If everyone knows her situation they won't be offended.
Just say...".Bring Your Own Dish" or put on the invitations "BYOD"
For your potluck dinner, I'm briging the shitloaf my wife made.........how do ya like that HUH?........LOL
the best way to word it is b.y.o.b.
Everyone knows that means bring you own beer!
It's time to celebrate Katie's Birthday!!!!

Where: The backyard at (address)
When:
Time:
What to bring: enter the dish here and BYOB for the BBQ. Main dish(es) is being provided.
**When you figure out the guest list divy up the chips, side dishes etc so you don't end up with all chips or potato salad for the sides.
