From festive holiday gatherings,10 Popular Occasions to Send Invitations Articles reasons to party, to elegant weddings, everyone loves receiving party invitations in the mail – they’re a confirmation of friendship on top of being a nice sentiment. If you're hosting one of these ten most popular occasions, create your guest list and start spreading the smiles.

1. Bridal Shower Invitations - Bridal showers are no longer reserved just for the bride. Today, bridal showers are the perfect opportunity for loved ones of both the bride and the groom to come together.  Send out an invitation and decorate the party that represents both of your respective styles.

2. WeddingInvitations - You prefer a classic announcement and he opts for a themed invitation, but your wedding invitations should reflect the soon-to-be union between you and your partner.  This is the first of many compromises to come!  Good luck!

3. GraduationInvitations - After years of hard work, long nights of cramming, mugs of coffee, and commitment to your education (ok, and some partying), have some fun and celebrate all your achievements with a graduation party.

6. Baby ShowerInvitations - Full of goofy games and adorable outfits, a baby shower allows your loved ones to celebrate your impending 8.12 pounds of joy.  Send your friends and family cute baby shower invitations to let them know the good time you’ll have and that you’ll be hitting them up for baby duty in a year or so.
