Additions such as muffins or coffee cake are always appreciated as well.

Determine what can be made the night before, and what can be easily prepared the morning of your party. Decide what you will need for the coffee bar and condiments such as jams, lemons wedges, and salad dressings.

make drinks self serveLook for a large container you can fill with ice. Place beverage selections such as sparkling water, bottled water, and other bottled or canned drinks so guests can serve themselves easily and allows you to put your attention elsewhere.
