The
Complete Idiot's Guide to Throwing a Great Party, Summary
Review
With decades of experience in party planning between them,
Phyllis Cambria and Patty Sachs have created an approachable, fun
beginner's guide to hosting a party. They manage to cover all the
fundamental bases from selecting your party theme, to working with
a party professional, to cleaning up after your event has become
just a memory. There is an appendix with several handy party
planning tools including budget worksheets, a wine and food
pairing guide and a calendar of U.S. holidays of both the common
variety such as July 4th, and more obscure such as National
Blueberry Muffin Day (July 11). |
