Thanksgiving Day 2011 is probably the most important holiday for many families. Looking to make this long weekend even more special? Here are few tips that could help you:

This time around you will be responsible for everything starting from the food choices, seating arrangement and house decorations to where your guests will stay. If you are the guest of another family member, make sure to offer to herp in the preparations bringing food and other items as necessary .
2. Expect things to be chaotic! Thanksgiving is a time for joy and merriment, and its never an entirely solemn occasion. Making well thought-out plans for your party and any trips you need to make can help dial down the stress and pressure on you, and make things go more smoothly.
3. There are many ways to celebrate the Thanksgivingholidays ranging from an extravagant diner with friends and relatives, a holiday trip with family, or just a quiet relaxation and time out from routine. Decide on what?s best for you. This is one way to make sure you are all set and ready for the holidays.
4. Looking to host a party? Start planning at least a week ahead of Thanksgiving, right from the number of guests you would like to invite, to the food and activities for the event. By planning ahead, you can reduce pressure and stress preparing for the day and eliminate the last-minute rush.
5. Send out the invitations early. Thanksgiving is an important event and many will have their own ideas on celebrating it. So, inviting them well ahead of the holidays will let you know you will be able to join you for Thanksgiving. Without knowing numbers, its hard to make a comprehensive plan.
6. Hosting the party at your place? Ensure your nome is tidy and you have enough seating for all of your guests. You can either clean your home a day ahead, or use professional cleaning services to get the job done if busy with other preparations.
7. If you haven?t got enough places for people to sit in your home, you can ask some family or friends to bring a certain number of additional chairs to help you out. Remember to make room for them in your house and arrange them properly so that it wont get too cramped and crowded.
8. Setting a festive ambiance is also important for a successful party. Take time to decorate your home with Fall and Thanksgiving items. Don?t think they should be extravagant. Simple and subtle decorations would suit too. Suggestive decorations that are less fancy, would be enough to get the Thanksgiving party started.
