Two
tips for a successful party :
- Relax,
drink a couple of glasses of wine, or do whatever relaxes
you. If you are uptight, your guests will feel it and
it will have an adverse effect on the party atmosphere.
- Arrange
the furniture so that everyone is within comfortable
talking distance. This will help conversation to flow
freely.
"If you do these two things it will not matter what
you serve, etc.,the guests will just naturally "party"!
How
to throw a surprise party:
- Select
date for party after secretly discovering whether guest
of honor will be available that day.
- Enlist
the help of an assistant to create a fake activity for
your honoree to attend with him or her.
- Extend
invitations to all guests and make very clear that party
will be a surprise, whether it's a verbal, email, or
formal written invitation.
- Let
all guests who may have contact with honoree know the
planned strategy for tricking guest of honor.
- Invite
all guests to arrive 30 minutes before guest of honor.
- Tell
guests to park out of sight, unless guest of honor believes
he or she will be attending someone else's party.
- If
possible, suggest any guests having contact with honoree
casually mention they will be attending to some fictitious
activity that day.
- Hold
your breath and hope no one slips with the surprise.
Tips:
- Be
sure that your assistant in the deception is good at
keeping a secret and keeping a straight face.
- If
guests are not capable of hiding the secret, encourage
them to avoid honoree during the weeks leading up to
party.
Have
more fun at your own party
You
tell yourself that you host a party to entertain family
and friends. But deep down inside you know the real reason
is because you want to have fun. Unfortunately, it's easy
to get so carried away with your plans that the party ends
up running you instead of the other way around. When the
party's over many hosts feel exhausted and swear that they'll
never do that again. Instead of looking back on a fun time,
it seems like all they did was work. That wasn't the point,
was it?
That's
why the next time you throw a party, keep focused on the
intention to have fun at your own event. If you're successful
at that, chances are good that your guests will have a
great time too.
How
to plan parties - did you forget anything?
Are
you sure you have everything you need for the party? Are
you really sure? Did you write it down? I can´t stress
this enough. Many a party is short or absent of something.
This means embarrassment, or someone running out to the
store during the party. To be sure you have not forgotten
anything why not send us an email with your questions. |
