We are not saying blast off loud music but having background music always helps! Choose soothing music and set a playlist and let it play while people mingle. It fills in awkward silence, makes for great conversation starter and sets the mood for the party.

Even if it’s not your thing, the one thing that can help you a lot is a checklist. On your checklist, make sure you note down all things you need and all the things you have to do. This is a great way to keep a track of things and ensure that everything is in place for the party. Have a separate guest list to make sure you don’t miss anyone.
