"Me gustaría que vinieras a mi fiesta" is the best way to ask someone to come to my party. It uses the conditional as a polite request, and the past subjunctive agrees with the conditional.
Some people would also say "Me gustaría que vengas a mi fiesta". The speaker here has in mind the fact that the party hasn't taken place yet, and they express some certainty that the invitation will be accepted.

Be careful: saying "sugiero que vengas a mi fiesta" usually would imply a thinly veiled threat that if you don't come to my party I'll take revenge. This is not an invitation and it may be taken as an aggressive way to tell someone to do something.
- Señor, le sugiero que no me hable con ese tono. -> I will take action if the man keeps talking to me in a way I don't like.
- Te sugiero que no hables de tu trabajo durante la cena. -> It's inappropriate that you talk about your job during dinner.
- Les sugiero que se tomen el té mientras esté caliente. -> I will take bad that you let the tea get cold.
"Quiero" may be felt a little too pushy. "Quisiera" is more polite.
"Deseo" is mostly OK (the verb is not giving an order, but in present it feels kind of self-centered), but "desearía" is much more polite.
"Ojalá" is alright.
Sería mejor que vinieras a mi fiesta.
This is another way to introduce an implicit threat: if you don't come to my party, something bad may happen. Pretty cool for a mafia boss party, but not for a regular party.  |
