I do a tremendous amount of reading for my work. I am always trying to stay on top of the greatest wedding trends, etiquette procedures and newest styles to help my brides and clients make informed and good decisions based on their budgets and styles.
I have learned one thing as I am reading, taking classes and listening to other professionals in the business: a good host is a must for a successful party in any social class or function. What does it take to make a good host? 5 steps will ensure your party is a hit and talked about with the fondest feelings the next day:
1. Be an example of good etiquette for your guests.
2. Your mood will set the tone of the event. If you are anxious and unsure, then you can bet that your guests will be too. If you are relaxed, cheerful, interested and having a good time your guests will as well.
3. Always entertain within your means. Guests come to your event to enjoy one another's company.
4. Treat your guests as you would like to be treated at an event. In other words, would you like to be a guest at your own wedding?
5. Your guests' comfort always comes first. If in question, read rules #1-#4 above and repeat as often as needed for a great event.
