Thirty is a good age for lunch instead of a late night. This card sets the table on the Amalfi coast: a border of cobalt and white tile, folded paper lemons with glossy leaves in the corners, and a sheet of soft white cotton paper raised in the middle for the words. The whole thing looks like it came from a stationer in Positano.
It was made for a woman’s milestone birthday, but it works just as well for a garden party or a bridal lunch, because the heading does not name an age.
Serve it in the yard or on a restaurant patio. Lemonade in glass pitchers, a long table with a blue runner, limoncello for the toast, and a lemon olive-oil cake instead of a frosted one. Ask guests to wear white or blue and the photos will look like a travel magazine.
