    I agree you were clear, but would also try to just shrug off the other mom's inquiry and not make too many assumptions about her either. I have also been to parties where I felt sure the host specified that there would not be a meal,and there was a meal. My theory is that it is always okay to ask and that is not necessarily negative in any way.

    Your invite was very clear! I’ve always appreciated invites with wording about food, so I can plan around it. But having that said, every single party my kids attended over the years always had food involved. I always included on my kids invites, especially for those with allergies as a mom of allergic kid, knew that is always appreciated.

    I think you were very clear and nope, wouldn't expect lunch/a meal during a 1-4 party.

    So true! I can totally understand that and you are right I should give the benefit of the doubt also. It’s always fine to ask, it just got me more stressed!

    the party went great! 👏❤️

    Can’t believe my baby is 9 😭

    I wouldn't expect lunch. In fact, I would assume that the party was set so that lunch was already eaten before the party.

    ETA: I guess my answer is a little late since the party already happened, lol
