Popular 21st Birthday Invitations

A fun way to start planning your party is to think of a theme that’s related to you. For example, pick your favourite decade, colour, movie or country and base the venue, dress code, games, food, décor and drinks all around that! You could have a pirate jamboree, a 1950s-themed get-together or an all-pink prom! Regardless of what you decide upon, Zazzle will have a design or template to match the affair. Take a look at our top-ranking pages, to start with, and feel the ideas start to flow!

If everyone in your class or peer group is turning twenty-one this year, then you’ll need to make sure your party stands out from the start. To do so, create your own invitation, where you can upload artwork, input text and choose from several different shapes, styles and sizes. And for stationery that’s even more glamorous than the venue or dress code, we recommend opting for our most luxurious paper types. Read the step-by-step guide below to learn more about our custom products!

• Step 1: Go to our custom invitation page. There isn’t a specific section for 21st birthday invitation templates, so you can create any kind of event communiqué from here.
• Step 2: Select a blank template. Just click on the thumbnail to open the product page.
• Step 3: Now, on the product page, choose a desired size, shape and material. These drop-down menus will differ slightly between invite styles and sizes, and will differ more substantially when you work on a magnet, badge or coaster, also located on this page.
• Step 4: Add images, text and design elements in Zazzle's design tool – this is where you'll add your own personal touch to your product!
• Step 5: Click 'Done' and see your final design! Depending on the number of people you want to invite, you may need to adjust the figure in the ‘Qty.’ box, located to the left of the ‘Add to Cart’ button – which is what you’ll press when you’re satisfied with the quantity.

Some typical details you’ll find on every invitation include the name of the guest of honour and the reason for the event; the date, time and venue; and RSVP details (how to respond and when to respond by). However, with birthday parties specifically, you may also want to address the theme and dress code – whether a costume is required, for example – and what activities are planned (without ruining the surprise, if you can). For example, if someone’s throwing a pool party or thinking of heading to the beach, then guests may need a change of clothing, swimsuit or may want to opt out altogether! Try to keep your message catchy and succinct, allowing room for the design to breathe. Thankfully, our Independent Creators have thought of this already with their clear and concise templated greetings!
