The very first thing that you should do when you are planning on having a party is to have a theme decided. This will decide the menu, specialty drinks, decorations, and music. Everything should revolve around the food, therefore much time should be used to plan the menu. It should take about four weeks for you to decide the menu, to have a date scheduled along with the time, and to invite all of you guests.
When your menu had been made up you could check out the Internet for many decorating ideas, drink recipes or just about anything else that you might think you should check out. Finger foods work best and do not require a lot of dishes. Keep a budget in mind and think about what can be prepared ahead of time. You can prepare dips, relishes, and chutney a few days ahead of time.
The night before the party you should think about setting up the table. It makes things attractive to serve on platters and at different levels. The middle of the table needs to be the highest point and should have some sort of flower arrangement or even a theme centerpiece.
On the day of the party is when everything comes together. Do all of your last minute cleaning, set the bar up, and decorate all room that will be used. Finish up the rest of your cooking, and don't forget the music and the lighting. Allow yourself some time to get ready an hour or two should do.
With platter of food served they will stay warm using hot plates, this make less for you to worry about. Do not be in a hurry to clear the table for coffee and desert this makes for a big killer of the party.
When the party is all done you will then realize how the attention to detail had paid off. All of the people that had been there will remember how great of a party it was and will be talking about it for months, until the next one.
