Party Planning Tips For Beginners
Preparing the Guest List Likely one of the first things that you will do is prepare the guest list for the party. You will need to think of everyone that you want to invite. Do this carefully as to not hurt anyone’s feelings. When it comes to party planning, it is the inevitable that someone will get their feelings hurt. You can cut back the chances of this drastically by planning out your guest list in advance and considering everyone. Don’t worry if the list looks rather long because chances are you will only have about half of those that you invite that will actually show up. Remember to ask for an RSVP from the people you invite so that you will have an idea as to how many people will actually be there. Planning the Time and Location The next thing that you need to do is plan the time of the party and where it will be held. This is something that you must consider just after you create a guest list. When choosing the time, you need to keep your guest’s schedules in mind. For instance, if you are planning a party for a bunch of college age kids, then you may want to consider a weekend instead of during the week. This is just one example. Once you have planned a time, also consider the location. If you are having it at home, that is really easy, but if you are planning to host it at a particular venue then you need to discuss all of your options. Some places will charge a lot more than others, and you will definitely want to have a budget in mind. Visit a few places and then choose your venue accordingly. Ensure that You Have Enough Refreshments One thing that people do not really consider is whether or not they have enough refreshments for everyone. If you are planning a large party, you need to plan to have enough food to feed the crowd. You should always consider the number of people that RSVP and plan for a few extras that may come at the last minute. These are some great party planning tips for those that are planning their first party ever. Planning a party doesn’t have to be a really difficult thing to do. In fact, it may be quite simple if you just take the time to cover all of your bases ahead of time and make plenty of time to plan it all out. Comments for this post are closed |
