IT'S the hottest ticket in town... the invite to Coleen McLouglin's 21st birthday bash. And in true WAG style you could say it's, well, a little over the top.

 

Forget a plain card simply telling you where to go and when to turn up. Coleen has come up with an astonishing lilac and pink six-page creation, bound like a book.

 

Not happy just with a picture of herself on the front with a flower placed artfully over her ear, Coleen has also chosen to feature close-ups of her lips and eyes.

 

And if you were lucky enough to be asked to go, you'd quickly realise it's actually not so much just an invitation... more a book of instructions.

 

 

There's a reply slip, of course. And details of how to get to magnificent Thornton Manor, in Wirral, Merseyside, where the £500,000 bash is being held on March 31. But there's also a lot of DON'Ts listed such as don't ask the other guests for autographs or expect to walk in with a mobile phone, camera or video as they'll be taken off you.

 

 

The invite reads: "We would respectfully ask that guests refrain from using any recording or photographic equipment. In order to fully comply with this request all such items are to be submitted to security upon arrival and will be returned on departure."

 

 

Coleen and her fiance, Manchester United and England striker Wayne Rooney, 21, have already sent the invites out to their 300 guests, including David and Victoria Beckham, Sven Goran Eriksson, former Atomic Kittens Liz McLarnon and Natasha Hamilton plus Man U, Everton and England stars such as Steven Gerrard and Alex Curran and a host of Coleen's fellow WAGs.

 

 

Girls Aloud and the Sugababes will be providing the music. And acrobats and trapeze artists will be entertaining the guests. An insider said: "Wayne told Coleen money is no object. And Coleen is determined her 21st will be just as big, even better, than the one Victoria threw before the World Cup."

 

So if an invite might be on its way, you'll know when it's arrived by the thud on the doormat. Just make sure the dog doesn't chew it up...

 

i wonder how much the girls will get paid
