Tips For Inviting Guests

If you are hosting your own home party, you obviously want to have as many guests as possible. Here are some suggestions to help you. Don't forget to pass these tips on to your hostesses as well!

• Don't skimp with your invitations - give them to anyone you think might be interested.


• A general rule of thumb is to invite twice as many people as you would like to turn up. So if you want 10 visitors, invite 20.


• Tell everyone they're welcome to bring a friend. As well as helping you get more people to your party, this also encourages those who are too shy to come on their own.


• You will need to give people enough notice, but they will also need reminding closer to the time. A good tip is to give/send out the invitations about 10 days to 2 weeks before the party, then call them the day before to remind them.


• Here's list of potential guests to get you going:
  Friends
  Family
  Neighbours
  Work colleagues
  School/nursery moms
  Gym/workout friends
  Your hairdresser/beautician
  Girlfriends/wives of your male friends
