Maybe an avid planner and host like me should say that in the course of the party Iâ€™m on a cloud of joy, but that would be a lie. Planning and preparing are my favorite parts of the process. Truth be told, when it comes to the actual parties, Iâ€™m a nervous wreck. But there is a moment of joy. Mine comes when I see the party come together. The guests are flowing through the space, tasting food, trying out any activities, having conversations with friends and strangers. And when I see someone take a bite of dessert, or try out a photo booth costume, or smile as they pick up a favor, well, that makes it all worth it., Creating a party. Itâ€™s my favorite thing to do, and Iâ€™m inviting you, as my guest, to join me in the festivities. I know weâ€™re going to have fun. Comeâ€”discover your inner party planner!, Love, Tori
