Any host would feel guilty about putting people to work during a gathering. However to put it simply the guests will not mind giving a helping hand giving you extra time to mingle with your guests.

One of the jobs that you can delegate is to have you husband, kids, or even a guest that arrives early to take coats or purses and out them away.

If you need to tend the bare all night it will end up being a tedious task. The host should serve the first drink of choice, then let your guest know where the bare is if they need a refill. If you happen to not have a bare set a table aside with everything that would be needed to mix 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. Ask a close friend or family member to help you with a quick rinse of the dishes, they shouldn’t mind giving a helpful hand. Make sure that it is only a quick rinse of the dinnerware, the rest will be there after. More about me.
