How to organize a gala dinner

You should know that a reasonable time to send the invitations is about 30 days before the event. Enough time to prepare it, both for you and for your guests.
Punctuality is very important once the day of the dinner has arrived. The host at the time of the event must have everything ready and the guest must arrive at the agreed time, because if the delay is a lack of respect, arriving with a lot of time in advance is much worse. The host must give a margin of delay of about fifteen minutes, in which a welcome cocktail or catering can be offered prior to dinner. In general we should try to avoid arriving when all the other guests are already seated at the table.
