- Knowing the party guests on a personal level helps you choose activities and foods that your guests will enjoy. For example, if you have a dinner party and you find out most of your guests are allergic to the food you serve, chances are they will not have a very good time. Personalizing your party to match the interests of your guests is something your partygoers will appreciate and remember. If you are not sure about the interests and allergies of some of your friends, ask them more about themselves so you can make accommodations.
- There is no shame in planning your party well ahead of time. Create a list of the things you want to do for the party and a price estimation for the entire event. Review your expenses for the month and determine how much you can spare for the party each month. Based on that number, determine how many months you will have to save money to throw the party. This approach takes out the need for compromise when you throw your party.
- Asking friends to help with the party not only makes the party more enjoyable, but it makes the planning more enjoyable as well. Choose friends you can easily get along with for long periods. You can split the labor and financial responsibilities between yourself and your friends as well, which takes away more of the burden of party planning. Make your expectations clear from the beginning, though, to avoid misunderstandings and arguments between you and your helpers.
- The location can make or break the party. If you want a quiet affair with some close friends, consider staying home or visiting a place known for its quiet atmosphere. If you want something more outrageous, you can make your home into an outrageous location by accentuating the atmosphere with music and decoration, or you can visit somewhere known for its high-energy atmosphere such as a nightclub. Visit the location you choose ahead of time to ensure it meets your expectations.
