Warm Weather Birthday Invitations and Ideas For Your May Birthday

As the weather is turning warmer, the time is perfect for a May birthday party. Get your friends and family together and celebrate your warmer weather birthday. After a long winter gather your family and friends and celebrate your birthday and your spring fever in style.

May is the perfect time for an outdoor birthday party. The weather is great - the spring chill is gone and it's not too hot from the summer sun. Everyone is ready to get outside and enjoy the weather after a long winter. Start off your event with a bright birthday invitation to get everyone in the festive mood.

Invitations

Draw on the colors and textures from the season for starters. Pick birthday invitations in bold colors and patterns. Pastels are okay, but May hints at some stronger colors. Just about any outdoor theme will work great for a May birthday invitation

Keep in mind that May is also Mother's Day. Make sure you don't plan your birthday party so that it interferes with Mom's Day. Even if your birthday happens to fall on Mother's Day, you may want to plan it earlier or later in the month, just to save the day for Mom. Typically Mother's Day is on the second Sunday in May. If you can steer clear of that, you're all set.

Games and activities

May is definitely a great time to get outside and celebrate with a cook out, pool party or picnic. Send out your birthday invitations for a fun picnic in the park followed by a nature hike or softball game. If you're hosting everyone at your home, try a kid-friendly game of lawn bowling, Frisbee or even kickball. The important thing is to get out and enjoy the weather for your May birthday.

Instead of a birthday cake, opt for cupcakes for a new twist. Then you can have a cupcake decorating contest. Give your guests brightly colored frosting, sprinkles, jelly beans and gummie candies and see who can make the best cupcake. A cute cupcake birthday invitation goes perfectly with this activity. Since this is bound to get a little messy, you might want to set up a picnic table outside to minimize the mess in your home.

May party themes

May's astrological sign is the Taurus, the bull. If you believe in astrology, you might want to base your birthday initiators and themes around that. While Taurus? can be bull-headed, they can also be very loving and generous.

You can also find out what famous people share your birthday or birth month and base your party theme around that. May birthdays include Audrey Hepburn, Orson Wells and John Wayne. An 'old Hollywood? theme would work well with these May birthdays. The possibilities are endless.

Take advantage of the great May weather and host your best May birthday party ever. Get your spring fever out of the way and get started on your warm-weather theme with a bright, bold birthday invitation. After a long winter wow your guests with a fun spring bash
