The simple answer is that Jehovah's Witnesses do allow presents and parties. Jehovah's Witnesses DO NOT, however, celebrate parties or give presents that can be tied to religious practices that have ties to pagan roots or violate Bible principles. Jehovah's Witnesses are well known for not observing birthdays and Christmas among many other holidays. The reason being is that birthdays are put in a bad light in The Bible and nowhere in the Bible are Christians commanded to celebrate Jesus Christ's birthday. In fact, there is no record of Jesus or his disciples celebrating his birthday or their own. Jehovah's Witnesses do observe Memorial of Jesus Christ's death or The Lord's Evening Meal as it's also called. This date corresponds to Nisan 14 on the Jewish calendar. This event is in accord with Jesus' own command and is one way to express gratitude for the gift of the ransom sacrifice Christ provided to vindicate Jehovah's sovereignty and save mankind.
Parties or presents that don't violate Bible principles. It's a personal choice if a married couple wants to celebrate their wedding anniversary. On other occasions throughout the year, Jehovah's Witnesses often get together among themselves for fellowship without needing a particular event or holiday to be the reason for a social gathering.

Do jehovahs have to attend meetings?
They don't "have to attend Sunday meetings." However, most Witnesses understand Hebrews 10:24,25 as strongly encouraging them to meet together regularly. Besides, not all Witnesses meet on Sunday; some, like me, attend on Saturday instead, especially when four or five congregations meet at the same location, and thus cannot all meet on Sunday.

They can if they chose but since Jehovah's Witnesses do not celebrate their birthdays it most would decline. If the luncheon is being given to make the Jehovah's Witness happy it would no doubt be more respectful to take the above into account and chose another moment to arrange a meal.
