Although the origins of St Patricks are closely tied to religion, our current celebrations of March 17th don't always show this connection. For those of us who throw a St Patricks Day Party are more interested in having a good time than remembering the hard work of the day's namesake, Saint Patrick. But there's nothing wrong with that and that shouldn't stop you from getting those St Patricks invitations and Holiday Invitations in the mail. Just remember that the idea is to have fun in the Irish style. Read More About St Patricks Invitations
Before you move ahead too much with your plans, you may want to remember what the holiday is all about. Basically, the day honors Patrick, a young man who brought the Christian faith to Ireland. He was kidnapped at a young age and taken to Ireland to be a slave. However, when he escaped he decided to return to preach the faith to the Irish people he had left behind. In fact, one of the most famous legends about Patrick was that he used a shamrock to illustrate to followers how God could be a trinity yet one holy being. This is why shamrocks are associated with Saint Patricks Day today. After his death in 493 AD, he was named a saint and was honored every year on this day.
The important question, however, is how are you going to honor the memory of Patrick? In Ireland, most of the businesses close on this day. In other parts of the world, the color green (always associated with Ireland ) and shamrocks are worn or displayed. In larger cities, parades fill the streets and bring out large crowds of excited people. However, there are also plenty of private parties thrown for the event and that's where you can come in.
