[quote=Anonymous]If your guests will need a place to put coats or shoes, clean your own family’s items out of the hall closet / mud room to make space. Remove extra clutter. Make all surfaces as empty as possible. Sit in each chair and ask yourself where you would place your drink or food. Plan your bar cart / buffet / table scape with post-it’s and walk it yourself and pretend to make a plate. Put things in the correct order. Plates first. Condiments after the item they are dressing. Silverware and napkins last. Plan food that’s easy to eat based on your plate size and seating availability. If you don’t want to have a bartender or think it’s too pretentious, you can get a high school or college kid to walk around and pick up empty plates, refill the buffet, and offer people drinks. I do this for kid parties so I can focus on my guests. [/quote]
