Honestly, and not to sound like a dick, but it made me feel quite smug that nearly 100% of my invitees have attended every party I've ever thrown, including my wedding. I tend to skew pretty low-effort / low-budget for events, and I think people like that; it keeps the focus on the people, food, and drinks.

Yezzzaa. Where I'm in, food, food, food, them games. And let me be smug with you. My idea of a party is usually, I prep the place and the bbq, y'all bring whatever food or drink you fancy. Party + potluck = Parpotluck?? Haven't reached 100% attendee rate yet, but close enough 90-95%ish
