Be prompt with your RSVP

The sooner your host can get an accurate head count, the sooner they can get started planning the event.

Don’t arrive too early

Your host will probably be busy right up until guests start showing up. Take advantage of a 5 or 10-minute grace period.

etiquette icon

Bring a gift to cherish

Show up with a bottle of wine, a box of chocolates, flowers or something fun like cocktail napkins with a joke or party quote.

Get ready to mingle​

Arm yourself with a few talking points. Be curious and ask engaging questions. Listen and don’t just talk to people you know.

Be present

Nothing says I’ve got something better to do than playing on your phone.

Thank you!

A quick text or email is fine, but if you want to stand out, write a quick thank you and drop it in the mail a day or two after the party.
