Party Plans

NYE Party “Favors”RING IN THE NEW YEAR W/ LESS $$$

To ensure the New Year’s countdown stays on schedule and goes off without a hitch, get your guests involved – assign them each fun “jobs” to keep the holiday festivities merry, bright  — and on time!

Write “jobs” down on 3×5 note cards and attach them to noise makers – with each card containing a certain task and time slot when it should be completed (i.e. turn on NBC at 10 pm, Make sure all of the guests have their noisemakers at 11:45 pm, turn down the music at 11:55 pm, etc.) – then place them in a big bowl or hang them on the hangers on the coat rack for guests to take as they hang their coats.  The cards will give guests a time to start counting down to the New Year so that the big moment doesn’t catch you (the host) by surprise while serving the double purpose of being a great decoration for the party!
