Thebusiesttimesofyearare usuallybetweenSeptemberand December,andagainrightafter MardiGrasthroughtheendof May,saysWhalen.
Whalenrecommendsreaching outatleastsixweeksinadvance tovenues.Retirementparties andbirthdaypartiesgenerally canbeplannedevenmorein advanceifthere’saspecificdate inmind.

Torregrossasays “Picktwoor threethingsthatyouwantto walkawaywith,andthatyou wantyourgueststowalkaway with Therestyoucanmake compromiseson.”
If you hire a party planner for a larger-scale event, try to book a few months in advance. Smaller parties with flexible dates may not need as much time to plan.

BartenderTip
“Pickgoodspirits like TequilaOchoorTequila Fortaleza. A Tommy’sMargarita with acrummytequila will tastebad.Asa generalrule, no celebrities(except forThe Rock,I’m serious) have ever made good tequila, so avoidtheir brands.Ask abartender or salespersonifyou’renot sure.Old-Fashionedsare more forgiving, butthe same is true.You can’tput lipstick on apig.”
