Party Tips For Restaurant Venue

If the venue you have selected is a restaurant, then use the following tips when planning the day. Just before the party starts, position the floral centerpieces, and then set out the place cards and party favors at each place setting.

Greet the guests as they arrive and make the introductions. When everyone has taken their seat, toast the bride-to-be and the groom-to-be (if this is a couple’s bridal shower.) After the meal, it’s present-opening time. Then the bride makes a speech, thanking the hostess and the guests. Finally, thank everyone for coming.

Of course, the order in which you do everything is your choice. Be guided by the mood of the guests and, if an outdoor party, the vagaries of the weather. The important thing is to be flexible, have fun and enjoy the moment you have created.
