I would like to have a family get together where everyone pays for their own dinner. My husband and I both come from LARGE families (9 brothers on one side alone, plus spouses, children, grandparents) where having just close family can be up to 50 people. How do I politely word the invitations letting people know they will need to pay for their own orders.

I was planing on doing that very thing---a cook out at a state park, however, the weather is not going to cooperate (extreme thunder storms with high winds are expected). Normally we just call everyone and let them know, but I was wondering how to word it in an email. Would something like the following be OK: "As you know, Jennifer is moving to Tennessee on August 26th. If you'd like to bid her farewell, please stop by TIMBERS Restaurant. Jennifer will be there from 6:00 until 8:00. I've included a menu for your convenience."

Why don't you arrange the get together at a park,and ask each member could they contribute a food item.Just explain that due to the large numbers attending your financial status could not provide sufficient quantity of food, if everyone could bring something we could have quite a nice banquet.
