I'm having a camping party by the sea for my 18th birthday in July but the only campsite available is quite expensive.
The charge is £5 per head for camping and I want to invite 20+ people. My total budget for the party is £100. I'm providing food and drinks, and even tents for some people. Do you think it would be reasonable to ask my friends to help out with their camping fee and if so how much should I ask them for? I thought about asking for at least £2.50 each otherwise I'll have to severely limit the number of people.
Thanks.

Asking your friends to chip in is quite acceptable. Asking them to pay for their entire fee is also acceptable in this situation. If anyone simply doesn't have the money, you can ask that they bring food instead. Or everyone could bring food and stuff instead of money.

How do you plan out a kick ass party? What sort of invitations should you give out without looking too kiddy-ish? (link)
|
It really depends on what type of kick-ass party you wish to throw.
If it is a formal party, get invitations that are elegant and mail them out. Not all party invitations are for children.
If it is an informal get-as-many-people-as-possible party giving out flyers or even emailing invitations is appropriate. Tell everyone you know and make them tell everyone that they know.
If it is somewhere in between, get invitations that reflect that. You can always make your own, and those make it easier to reflect the mood you are trying to create.
