Whether you're planning a family or another type of reunion, experts say be prepared to work hard!
According to ReunionMojo.com, the ideal amount of time needed to orchestrate a successful reunion is 12 months.
The first step in planning these get-togethers is to form a committee of classmates or family members to do the grunt work involved. Tasks include choosing the date, location, venue and lodging, as well as locating long-lost friends or relatives, making a budget, creating a reunion website, choosing caterers, booking photographers, decorating the venues and organizing activities.
Utilizing an online schedule as well as holding monthly over the phone or in person will help keep the plans on track.
While activities are important to a successful reunion, it's important to remember that bringing these individuals together is the best way to ensure a great event.
Special touches such as candy bars with personalized candy wrappers and personalized water bottle labels will give your reunion a professional feel without hiring an expert.
These items and other personalized gifts can be placed at each place setting or displayed on a table or in a basket as take-home party favors.
