We all want to throw a good party. The ingredients are usually pretty straightforward: food, drinks, and music. Not everyone is skilled in the art of throwing an incredible party that turns even the most reluctant guest into an eager participant. Here are some tips for throwing an amazing party that will have people talking about it for weeks!
5 Tips for the Ultimate Party
1) Create a playlist beforehand with songs you think your guests will enjoy dancing to. They should be fun and upbeat to ensure maximum enthusiasm at the event!
2) Make sure your decorations are well planned out before you gift wrap everything up and start decorating. If you have a lot of tables and chairs and only one centrepiece, the party may look thrown together and not very inviting. Instead, make plans to set up at least three different centrepieces at staggered heights and distances from one another around your party area. This way, it gives everyone something to focus their attention on while they socialize and dance throughout the night.
3) You know that thing when a couple you like has a party and you’re worried about not getting invited? Don’t let that be you! When inviting your friends over for drinks, send out a text message or email two days in advance telling them the time (and day) of your event. This way, they won’t be wondering if they were snubbed and you can have a smaller guest list.
4) Try to get your guests all dressed up and ready to go, you never KNOW! Some people might wait until the last minute to show up so if you send them a text the morning saying “Hey, anyone coming tonight?” it makes sure that they’re going to show up for sure! Also, this lets them know you want them there so badly that you’re willing to get out of bed earlier than usual to make sure everything goes smoothly. People like that type of thoughtfulness.
5) The food is another very important (and very easy) factor in the theme of your party. You want to make sure that you have something that everyone can have a good time eating. A bunch of appetizers? Sure! Some finger food? Definitely! The point is that there is always something to eat at a party, so make sure you’re prepared with some finger foods and/or finger-food appetizers. And if your guests are on a diet or simply choose not to eat anything, make sure you have plenty of drink options for them as well!
