How to plan a holiday party is one of the question that you might be having now. Holiday season is coming and Thanksgiving is just a few days away and then goes Christmas and New Year’s eve. Hosting a party is a great way to bring families and friends together. It can also be overwhelming. So I will be sharing some practical and realistic tips on how to plan a great Holiday Party.
How To Plan A Holiday Party
Setting the Date.
You have to choose a date that works best for everyone. Make sure to ask a poll on everybody’s availabilities to make sure your family and friends will be able to attend.
Also setting a budget
Make sure that you have a set budget and stick to it, as inflation is the current dilemma of a lot of people right now. Setting up a budget that won’t break a bank and that will better serve everyone is a must. Don’t stress yourself too much here. The most important part of a Holiday party is not how high your budget is but how everyone is getting along and merry!
Choosing a theme
For this coming Christmas party, my friends and I already came up with a theme. We agreed to dress up in something velvet. This brings some excitement to the upcoming party.
Making Guest list
If you are planning a big party then you might need to make sure to jot down everyone you are planning to invite. If it is just a small list you might just need to send everyone evite. Or what my family and friends do is do an invite on Facebook since most of us are on there and call or text the ones who are not on social media.
Finding a Venue
This shouldn’t be hard if you have a space in your house to host, or if one of your family or friends already volunteered their place. If you plan to do it on an event place or maybe a hotel ballroom, you have to make sure to book the place in advance to make sure you get the place you really wanted that works for everyone.
As for the food
You can create a menu and you can have it catered or if you have enough help you can cook and designate some tasks to some of your family and friends. Or what we normally do on the Holidays, we always make it a potluck. So everybody participates and the host is not so stressed out.
