How to Use a Party Planning Checklist
By Lisa Blair

There are several different ways to go about planning a party; the most effective way is to make a party planning checklist. Each checklist will be different for each party, and for each host or hostess. But the typical checklist will contain three main elements the invitations, the food, and the decorations. Now depending on the budget for the party and what type of party it is that you are looking to throw, there are many different ways to go about setting up a checklist with those three elements.

So the first element to a party planning checklist is to create and send out the invitations. However in order to do this first the date, time, and location must be decided on. Also, a guests list must be created. Now a guest list may vary depending on the budget of the party, and the type of party you are planning. Now that you have your guest list made, the date and time set, and the location planned, it is time to inform your guests that they are invited and that they need to RSVP by a certain date prior to the party.

Now it is time to figure out what food you are going to serve your guest. Some parties will require that you only serve finger foods, those types of parties would be a Halloween party, or a game of some sort, also some birthday parties would only require finger foods. However there are some parties that would require a meal to be served. Those parties could include weddings, birthday parties, and reunions. Once you decide whether you are serving finger foods or serving a whole meal it is now time to put your ideas for food on you party planning checklist. Food isn’t the only element to this portion of the checklist, you must also plan out the supplies that you will need, and the drinks that you will be serving.

The fun part of the party planning checklist is the decorations. If your budget allows for it, decorations can be the highlight of any party. Some parties have themes, for example Halloween parties. These types of parties can end up being the talk of the town if planned and decorated correctly. Make sure that if you are having a themed party that you notify your guest of this in the invitation otherwise the party could end up a bust.
