By doing this it allows you to great guests when they arrive or gives you time to finish up in the kitchen, like snacks. In this extra time frame you can put out appetizers, mix drinks, are just be sure that everything is properly put together.
Tending the bare all night can be a task that will never end. The first drink should be served, when you give it to your guest let them know where the bare is and everything that they may need that way any refills can be done by them. If you happen to not have a bare set a table aside with everything that would be needed to mix drinks. This is similar to drinks. Keep in mind not to forget napkins and extra glasses.
Do not go into the kitchen after dinner to do a complete clean up. Do only a quick clean up with a friend or family member that doesn’t mind helping out, not to be confused with refills. Make sure that it is only a quick rinse of the dinnerware, the rest will be there after.
