What is a Secret Santa & Party Invitations


Secret Santa Party Invitations are on Zazzle and available below. What is a Secret Santa? Before Christmas or the party date, participants draw names along with a short list of gift ideas (each person wrote down) within a set budget. Keeping it a secret who has whose name. During the day of the Secret Santa gift exchange party, all gifts are wrapped and gathered with only the name of the receiver on the tag. To add to the secrecy, everyone involved can buy the same wrapping paper and use similarly sized boxes.

Below are the Partyready Store's correctly worded invitations. While they mention the office, you can customize them for a family or friends gathering.

I could not find a well-worded Secret Santa party invitation. Most invitations mentioned bringing a gift to exchange on the day of the party, which is a gift exchange party. A Secret Santa involves picking names and keeping it a secret who receives each gift. This gift-giving is a two-part process: our family used to draw names on Thanksgiving and then exchange gifts on Christmas, keeping the identity of the gift-giver a secret.

These little budget cards are perfect for distribution. Instruct the participants to fill out the paper with their names and gift suggestions, then fold it and place it in the accompanying envelopes. Tell them not to write anything on the outside of the envelope. Later, everyone can pick a card from the box. Click on the images to go to each product page on Zazzle.

Now that you understand what a Secret Santa is, it's important to clarify that an invitation that doesn’t provide all the details is merely a gift exchange. For a Secret Santa among friends, you could phrase the invite like this example: "Join us at Smitty's for drinks on November 31st at 7 PM to draw names. The Secret Santa Gift Exchange will be on December 21st at 6 PM at Mary’s place..."
