Decide how many to invite . Choose your menu. Make one complex or extravagant item and compliment with simpler dishes. Create a printed display menu. Shop early and prepare as much in advance as possible. Put plates, silverware, etc., on the table but don't set it. (Early guests love to help and can be in your way). . If you are doing cocktails; narrow down the bar menu to one or two specialty cocktails plus wine and beer. This is especially important for larger parties. The cocktail / wine list can be included on the dinner menu. . I love to make large, weird shaped, or fruit infused ice cubes for smaller parties or top shelf spirits.

Having a theme. makes it easier and more fun, even if it is very subtle, like a color, recipe ingredient, decor, etc.. Announce the theme. . Create the drink menu. Narrow it down to 3 or 4 drinks with wine and beer. Choose foods and snacks. If you are not doing dinner make sure there are plenty of snacks.
Music and entertainment. Plan you play lists early or assign the task to your music geek friend.
Amusement - I always have a game or novelty on the bar. One of my favorites is Lightening Reaction , look it up.
Hired help - bartender and/or bus person. I love to cook (before) and make drinks (during) but I want somebody picking up plates, glasses and just cleaning up. Make mixes, drinks and condiments in advance. Good bar prep will allow you more time to enjoy the party.

The lost art. At least on the west-coast. I have done them for up to 100. I like to create a whole experience. From arrival appetizers and cocktails to the snacks to bring into the game. I also do a prearranged attendance pool.
Menu - Teriaki steak/chicken, Caesar salad, potato salad.
Beverages - Got to get a Keg for effect and a simple bar menu. Get there early and find a corner parking space.

Very few of us like to put ourselves out there and plan a party. What if it is a disaster, bad food, boring, etc... That is why if you take the time and put something together you will be a rock star. Pick a date and do it. You will have as much fun as your guests.
