Whether you’re hosting a graduation party or a corporate retreat, few things can make your get-together more memorable than turning it into a pig roast! As the team at Lother's Catering—which services Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky—explains, taking the right steps in planning your pig roast will ensure everyone has a great time.

Don’t forget these important parts of planning:

• Know How Much Food You Need: Running out of food is the worst thing that could happen at any party. Make sure you order the right amount of food for the number of people you expect to attend your event. This doesn’t just refer to the main course, either! Sides, desserts, and drinks can’t be forgotten. Remember: It’s always better to wind up with leftovers than to send your guests away hungry.
• Plan in Advance: It might seem excessive to plan your pig roast four weeks ahead of time, but this ensures everyone you want to invite will have time to mark their calendars and RSVP. If you don’t give your guests enough advance notice, they may make other commitments instead. This also allows you to make reservations with catering companies, entertainers, or others who are involved in setting up your event.
• Give a Warm Welcome: A good host sets the tone for the entire event, so hopefully, you’re feeling social! If you are friendly and talkative when your guests arrive, your mood will soon spread to the rest of the group. However, a nervous, sullen host will set a poor tone for the new arrivals. If you feel uncomfortable playing the role of host, it might be better to ask someone else to greet your guests instead.
