The holidays are a great chance for some much-needed family fun, but if you're planning a big get-together with extended family from all over, you might be under a little stress. This is entirely natural, but it still doesn’t achieve the fun you’re looking for, which is enough to make anyone feel overwhelmed. So, how can you take the stress out of party planning?


Book A Private Function

The easiest way to relieve stress entirely? Book a private function. With this, you don’t need to worry about tidying your home or even preparing food. Depending on your preference, you can use the Barrio Queen group private dining experience to celebrate whatever event has come up. This also makes it easiest for friends and relatives to find, especially if they have never been to your house before, and can give you various options for what to do during the party that might not be possible in your house. 


Streamline the Guest List 

Everyone feels bad when they leave people out of their events, but sometimes you need to be ruthless. Whether it’s a get-together to celebrate an engagement or a children’s party, you do not need to invite that many people. While having a huge guest list is useful (since some won’t attend), you don’t want to risk there being too many guests, as this can make the venue uncomfortable, and you may not have enough food or drink to satisfy everyone. 


Stick to the Budget 

It’s easy for the party budget to get away from you, so keeping a close eye on every penny will prevent significant stress after the event. No matter how big of an occasion it is, you don’t need to go into debt to celebrate something. So, search around for affordable party options and try to get as many things at the lowest possible cost. Some vendors may even provide discounts if you buy multiple items from the same place. 


Find Ready-Made Playlists 

Every party needs a soundtrack, but since you won’t have time to put all your favorite tunes into one place, it’s worth knowing where to find ready-made alternatives. There are plenty of party playlists on Spotify for you to check out, but if you feel nothing suits the vibe you’re looking for, you can use these as inspiration and combine different genres to match your party mood. 


Put Together Specialty Drinks 

Your guests will expect a drink or two at the party, but no one wants to spend all night making different cocktails. Wine and beer are easy enough, but a single signature cocktail can prevent stress. Make sure you have enough ingredients for every drink, as people may want to sample it several times if they love it enough. 


Party On 

Although every minute before the party can feel overwhelming, you know that things will be fine once you get going. These tips will help reduce stress and make everything more manageable so that you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your party like the rest of your guests.
