HOST’S NOTES / KEEP THIS BIT
A useful party shopping list covers food, drinks, ice, serving pieces, tableware, bathrooms, cleaning, waste and leftovers—not only the menu.
Ice, openers, serving spoons, kitchen roll, toilet paper, bin bags, storage containers and a marker for cups are the repeat offenders.
Food changes with the format. Pizza portions, snack weight, buffet pieces and BBQ items need different assumptions; longer parties also need more grazing food.
Plan a varied mix rather than a drinking target. Keep serving ice separate from cooler ice, provide water, and buy toward the higher end outdoors or in hot weather.
