Planning A Christmas Party
from: CTLAs everyone knows, the month of December is full of shopping, cooking, baking, and Christmas parties. Many people enjoy entertaining during the holiday season. Problems do arise such as scheduling conflicts, and money always gets tight right before Christmas. Don't let that stop you though if you enjoy entertaining. If you want to throw a Christmas party for your friends and family, there are some important tips to keep in mind.
The first thing to do when deciding to have a Christmas party is start planning well in advance. December is a busy month and getting the ball rolling early will be a huge help in your preparations. So step by step, here is how it should go. Decide on your guest list. If your budget is limited, you may want to put a number cap on your list. Also be aware that space is an issue as well. Crowding into a small area does not a merry party make. This is also the time to decide if you want to go the potluck way or handle all of the food yourself.
The next step in your Christmas party preparations is to send out your Christmas party invitations. Be sure to give guests as much notice as possible and, to avoid confusion, call, mail, or email everyone on the same day. This just avoids hurt feelings. No one wants to feel like an afterthought. This is also the time to include a brief note mentioning the potluck theme if that is the way you decided to go. Check back with any potential guests who may not have responded in a week. A quick phone call should work fine.
Now that you have a good idea on how many people will be attending your Christmas party, you can start to think about the menu. Make a list for the grocery store, being sure to estimate high on the cost. If things look a little pricier than you intended, look the list over again to see if you can eliminate any items. Don't forget to include paper napkins, plates, and plastic ware. Of course if you are having a more formal party those things won't be a concern. Go to the store, stick to your list, and get ready to party.
Having a Christmas party can be the highlight of your holiday season. If you are prepared in advance, there is no reason why you can't enjoy the party as much as your guests. Accept any help that is offered, cook your behind off, and celebrate the holidays with those nearest and dearest to you.
