Would you go to a birthday party on a Sunday morning?

This thread is hilarious. Op-yes, we would def go to a Sunday morning party.

NP here. OP, I would that some would RSVP "yes" with good intentions, but frankly get too "Sunday" come time and not show up. I've seen this happen. It is a problem if you are ordering food, especially!

Assuming you mean 10 or 11, and not 8am, we'd be there. At 8am we're either at Mass, or if we went the night before then we are all relaxing in our pajamas!!

Not only would I come, can I come?

No. Sunday mornings are for church, or if we skip church, then for family.

I wanted to have my son's party on a Sat, but there were a few important people that couldn't come that day...so I opted for a Sunday brunch, from 11-2 (so those w/ little ones who still napped could skip out and make it home for naptime). Adults at the egg casseroles I made, and the kids gorged themselves on big fat Costco muffins. We had a great turnout.

We've gotten great turnout for Sundays and prefer them for various reasons. I've gone to a bunch of Sunday parties. I have to say, though, our close friends and those we associate with tend not to go to church so that aspect is a non issue for us.

Probably true for us as well. We are regular church goers and rarely miss.

I think if it was a close friend and Sunday was the only day they could have the party for logistical reasons, we might consider it.

Honestly, most (maybe all) of our friends are regular church goers as well, so it would probably never be an issue for us.

We would, but church is not a factor for us. I prefer later morning/early afternoon to late afternoon on Sundays because we're usually trying to get things ready for the week then, but if the party is for a good friend we try to go, no matter the day and time.

We would and have gone to birthday parties on Sundays at 11am or later. That way we can go to church before we head over to the party. We would not go to a party that was earlier than 11 or we would show up late.

Sorry, no. Saturday night hangovers don't wear off until after noon on Sunday. If you know us well, you wouldn't invite us.

Hi - Churchgoer here. Not offended, but wouldn't attend unless could go to an earlier service.

I think as long as you know that your friends are not church goers, then its not a problem. For us, Sunday is no different than Saturday (then again, DS is still a baby so I don't have sports, classes, etc to deal with on the weekends). I would be more concerned with making sure that naps are not affected and if the kids attending are all on the same nap schedule, do it around that.

I agree!! I think bagels would be a great idea.

OP, I'd attend. We're not churchgoers, so that's not an issue anyway.

Actually, I think Sundays would be great! There's not too much open on Sundays, and sometimes in the heat of summer, we're looking for something to do anyway.
