Choosing The Best Time & Date For Your Party – Part Four

If you’re hosting an older crowd, as in a Golden Anniversary celebration, some of your guests might not want to stay up late. Consider havingthis kind of party early on a Saturday evening or on Sunday afternoon. Start it at 6:00 PM at the latest so that by 10:00 PM, your guests are out the
door.

A children’s party should last no more than three hours. Two and a half hours is optimum. Daylight Saving Time, whether you’re “falling back” or “springing ahead,” often causes confusion. But if you must have the party on a day when the time is changing, include a reminder of the time change in your invitation.


Finally, check your calendar for holidays and events that often prevent people from showing up at parties due to other obligations. Some events and religious holidays vary from year to year. (see book for details)
