| Period | Focus | Tasks | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 weeks before | Planning | Set date · create guest list · decide theme · send invites | Digital invites: WhatsApp, Evite, or email |
| 3 weeks before | Confirm & prepare | Chase RSVPs · order decorations · plan menu · book entertainment if needed | Confirm final numbers |
| 1 week before | Final prep | Buy non-perishable food · confirm helpers · make playlist · prep activities | Make a detailed day-of timeline |
| 1–2 days before | Final details | Buy perishables · make food that keeps · set up venue if possible | Do as much as possible in advance |
| Party day | CELEBRATE! | Morning setup · greet guests · enjoy every moment | Delegate tasks — you're the host, not the cleaner |
For 20 guests, aim for more food than you think you need — people always eat more at parties.
Prepare as much as possible the day before — your future self will thank you.
Delegate! Assign helpers specific tasks so you can actually enjoy the party.
