Etiquette For An Adult Birthday Party

• Don’t come empty handed. Do bring a gift for the birthday guest of honor.
• If you receive an RSVP on the invitation, do respond according to the instructions in a timely fashion.
• Do compliment the host on the party – especially if you really are having a great time.
• If you’re going out for a birthday dinner, unless it is a formal affair, do offer to pay and don’t assume it’s covered.
• Don’t linger long after a birthday party is clearly over unless you’ve arranged to help the host clean up.
• If you’d like to bring a guest to a birthday event, do check with the host if the affair is informal, but don’t bring extra people without making sure if it is okay.
