3. Plan your food carefully

Make sure you know of all food allergies and intolerances too as you want everyone to be able to enjoy the night. If you’re looking for amazing chefs to cater your party you can find a list here.
4. Plan party favours
Give people a token of appreciation such as chocolates or a small bottle of gin to get people in the party spirit.
5. Use tickets for the bar
