Party Planning Tips?

I recently threw a summer shindig and invited a bunch of friends. When I was planning the party, I did some research on the web and came across this great article that gave tips on party planning: http://www.2forcouples.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=439:the-ultimate-party-planner&catid=53:feature-articles&Itemid=188.

It gives suggestions on possible food and drink items to serve to guests, and also gives some useful etiquette and fashion tips when hosting a party. Some of you might want to check it out if you’re planning a party.

Also, feel free to share your tips on party planning here!
