Micromanaging Your Party

Too many rules or pre-designated party activities can make your party seem unnatural, forced, and less enjoyable. You want your guests to feel at home at your party, so the more ‘hands-off’ you are the more content your guests will be. Make games and activities available, but let your guests decide which they would like to do.

It’s natural for some partygoers to break away from the core of the party to do other things. This doesn’t mean they aren’t enjoying themselves. The trick to having a fun and lively party is to make it easy for people to feel comfortable and to be themselves. The more you seem to be having a good time, the easier it will be for your guests to do the same. 

An uptight host is one fast way to kill the party atmosphere. If you want your guests to dance the host should be leading by example and, who knows, you may even enjoy yourself a bit more.
