For this reason, keep the bar stocked with a nice variation of liquors. For those on the conservative side, stock water, tea, and sodas to suit their needs.

Food: All this singing makes people hungry, so do not starve the party goers! Make sure your refreshment section is organized in a way that will keep any mess from hitting the dance floor. Arrange garbage cans at the four corners and check on them periodically. Remember: The food is not the main attraction, so do not use buffets. Finger foods that aren't sticky or wet will make things less messier when it is time for clean up.

A great hosts starts the party on time, leaves room for great spontaneity, and never neglects those at the party with needs. Your goal as a host is to make sure people never forget the party as well as establish yourself as unforgettable.
