Sleepover Party Invitation Wording: Slumber Party and Movie Night Examples

By the PixerInvite team · 6 min read · Updated 20 October 2026

A sleepover invitation needs two times — drop-off and pick-up the next morning — plus a list of what to bring and a way for parents to reach you. Parents decide on sleepovers, so the practical details matter as much as the fun line. Here's wording that covers both.

What should a sleepover invitation include?

The name and age, drop-off and pick-up times, the address, what to bring, and a phone number for parents. Mention food and any allergies question too.

DetailExample
Headline"Pajamas, popcorn and a movie marathon!"
Who and age"Maya is turning 12"
Drop-off"Friday, June 11 at 6 pm"
Pick-up"Saturday, June 12 at 10 am (after pancakes!)"
Bring"Sleeping bag, pillow, pajamas and a toothbrush"
For parents"Questions? Call Sarah on 905 555 0142"
RSVP"Let us know by June 4 — and about any allergies"

What are fun sleepover invitation lines?

Lean on pajamas, movies and staying up late. One line is plenty.

  • "Pajamas, popcorn and a movie marathon — sleepover for Maya's 12th!"
  • "Grab your sleeping bag — it's a slumber party!"
  • "Stay up late, eat too many snacks, sleep (maybe)."
  • "Lights, camera, PJs! Movie-night sleepover."
  • "Pillow fights and midnight snacks — you're invited!"

How do you word a movie-night sleepover?

PixerInvite's Movie Night Sleepover design opens with a vintage projector clicking on, its beam revealing a blanket fort lit with fairy lights.

What's a "late-over" and how do you word it?

A late-over is a sleepover without the sleeping: guests come in pajamas and get picked up at bedtime. It's a good option for younger kids or for families who'd rather not do overnights.

Saturday, June 12 · 6–9:30 pm

When and how should you send sleepover invitations?

Two to three weeks ahead, by a link parents can open on their phone. Ask about allergies in the RSVP so you only ask once. See also kids' birthday invitation wording and teen party wording.
