* Make sure to prepare plenty of foods that are high in protein and starches. It will help slow down the intake of alcohol of the guests.
* Prepare and set-up a coffee station with non-alcoholic toppings and mixers. Include non-alcoholic syrups too.
* It is fun to let your guests participate in games and in entertainment numbers to keep them alive and kicking.
* Hire a bartender to serve drinks instead of having your guests serve themselves. Bartenders are trained in recognizing if someone has had too much to drink. Plus, it is easier for a bartender to tell someone they are cut off than it is for a hostess to tell a guest they are cut off.
* Give them a ride. Make a list of taxi contact numbers that can take your guests back to their homes safely.
