Question
I am writing a script for a film. I have a basic script that sends an HTML email to two sets of emails. On the form you enter in the event information and that information gets sent to two lists of users, the "Desired Guests" and the "Undesired Guests" they both get the same exact HTML email however I need the email for the "Undesired Guests" to go to the spam folder. So what I did was for the "Undesired Guest" email list was insert a bunch of spam content into the body of the email as I need this email to send to the spam folder. The "Desired Guests" email should go to the inbox just fine (as is currently is)
Is there any way I can make the "Undesired Guests" email to go spam for sure? Can I send the email through an outside server with a different IP and bad reputation to make these emails go to spam?
Any input would be a great help.

Solution
Have you tried adding X-Spam related headers, so as to masquerade as something that went through and got caught by Spam Assassin?
If not, a few headers you might want to look into:

OTHER TIPS
There are plenty of things you can do to get it marked as spam, however, if someone has you listed as a 'safe-sender', 100% guarantees may be out of the question.
There are plenty of keywords you can use, they don't need to be shady words either. In the past, I've had issues just using large money amounts, exclamation points and the word 'free'.
Litmus is a great tool for checking your spam scores in different mail clients. For most spam software, it is an accumulative score, so you will easily be able to identify the worst (or in your case best) culprets.
Just BLACKLIST your Ip address, also each blacklisting servers has their own listing criteria that may include technical listings, policy listings, and evidence based listings. Technical listings are those that occur mostly from mail server configuration issues such as missing or incorrect reverse DNS records, missing on incorrect banner greetings, and mail servers operating in IP address space that an ISP has specified that mail servers should not be operating in. Policy listings are those based on an operator that does not wish to receive email from certain countries, or ISPs, or has a history of no honoring unsubscribe requests. Evidence based listings are those where the operator has receive direct (or indirect) evidence that an IP address has been involved in sending unsolicited emails.
