As for parties, being invited is not the same as being invited. Only those who have gone through organizing a party know the pressure exerted by this role. Something that at first seems so simple (drinks, food, music and others) requires a series of essential steps to follow with your checklist in hand, an extra dose of organization and time, a lot of time. If you are not a native host but have to debut, be patient and make sure you have plenty of energy. The race to organize the perfect party has already begun and your mission is to make it the best event of all time.
Pick a topic.
There are hundreds of types of parties (baby showers, birthdays, commemorative, movie themed, 80’s, masquerade …) and you must find the one that best suits yours. Once you have it, everything will revolve around him: the decoration, the wardrobe and the catering. Each part of the party should go with the chosen theme. You can always find inspiration and help by searching on Instagram or Pinterest.
Establish a budget.
From this game the magnitude and scope of the match is determined. If it is a small event or if it is going to be a big party. Start by calculating a budget for the event. This is key to choosing the catering, the place and the decoration. Once you have your budget, you will have to choose between your catering options (you will do it homemade or you will opt for experts), music (with a speaker or you will hire a DJ), etc.
Choose a good location.
This is one of the key decisions for success and it depends directly on the number of guests. You can’t put 150 people in a 50-square-meter room, or 10 children in a big house full of dangerous objects. If you choose your own home, make sure your guests are comfortable at all times, and if you prefer to rent a space, consider the type of people who will attend.
The guest list.
Here you have to be smart and gather like-minded people with similar tastes if the party is small, or open your hand and invite all your friends and acquaintances if it is a large party. What is clear is that you should invite your guests with enough time to avoid being left alone after so many preparations.
And finally … have fun!
The day has come, your guests are starting to arrive and, of course, everything is in order! You just have to enjoy the moment, without forgetting to attend to your guests so that everyone can have fun and enjoy the unforgettable moments. If all goes well, you will be asked to host another party.
