Valentines Day is
around the corner and it's not too late to get
help for that special person in your life.
Hire a waitstaff person to serve
you at home this weekend and clean up after your
dinner so you can sit and enjoy your loved ones.
Have a bartender for that party you are planning
this spring. Have a server come to help
set up and clean up so you won't spend all your
time in the kitchen and miss the party! |

Plan ahead for those big events and recognize

brighten your day. Pass it forward,
you never know who it will help. |

It's Fall!!!
It's getting a little cooler and hopefully we'll
be able to get outside and enjoy the weather! |

Now that Fall is officially here, it's time to
enjoy the outdoors and relax before the holiday
season gets here! Yes, It's hard to
believe but the holidays are right around the
corner. Call early to reserve your help in
the kitchen for those big family events or even
a few friends are coming over to help celebrate
or watch that big football game. We can
provide bartenders, servers and dishwasher to
help with the big Thanksgiving dinner as well as
those holiday parties.
Call early
to reserve the help you will need this holiday

Did you visit the Gucci Grand opening in the
Galleria recently? What a beautiful store.
You may have been greeted by two fine looking
young men who offered you a glass of champagne!
Yes, that was Cameron & Cody from Rent-A-Prep.

What a fun time we had at ISES (International
Special Events Society) last week. Our
monthly meeting was at House of Blues and it was
a really cool venue. We meet lots of
wonderful people in the event business through a
fun networking game as well as socializing with
old friends too. Many Thanks to House of
Blues for hosting us and providing the wonderful
food.
I always look forward to the
ISES meetings because the people attending are
all fun loving people who know how to have a
party. It's their passion which is why we
are all in the events industry. So if you
are ever needing a recommendation for venues,
caterers, party planners, party ideas,
entertainers, photographers, valets, bartenders,
waiters or anything to do with events, give me a
call. I know a lot of people that I can
recommend! |

IT'S
Hot outside but that's OK. We'll just
have a party inside, where it's nice and
cool. |
It's too hot to have an outdoor party but you
can host a casual get-together inside and still
have fun without too much work. Pick
a theme and have everyone bring something with
that theme in mind. IDEAS:
A Luau: with fancy umbrella drinks, roast
pork (in the oven), pineapple desserts, leis and
grass skirts!
Pick a country: Italy, France, Spain,
Japan....and have everyone bring a dish from
that country.
Have a Birthday party for a famous person (who
won't be attending): to see lists of
birthdays for any day of
the year, go to:
www.famousbirthdays.com Be sure to have your
guests sign up for a category of food to bring
if it's a pot luck. You don't want
everyone to bring the same thing:
appetizers, salads, main dish, side dishes,
desserts, drinks. Don't want to work
all evening while your guests are enjoying
themselves? Have Rent-a-Prep send over a
prep-cook, server, bartender or dishwasher to
help with all the work. Whether your
gathering is small or large, we can do all the
work so you don't have to.

June 23, 2011 RAIN....We got some rain!!! |
What a wonderful site...Rain. Now that the

June is almost over and 4th of July is
coming fast.. Do you have your party
already planned? Family, Friends, lots to
do? Need to fix all that food for a crowd?
Rent-A-Prep can help. We have Prep-cooks,
chefs, and people to clean up so you don't
have to. Need a recommendation for
caterers, Party Rental supplies, or other
services? Just let us know, we have a
large data base of people we recommend.
So, relax and enjoy the party while we do
all the work.
There will be lot of fireworks to watch
around town this 4th of July, so enjoy the
holiday and be safe!

Summer Parties: The Easy Way...

May 24, 2011
Pick a theme, For Memorial Day, Patriotic to
honor our military?
Beach theme with flip flops by the pool?
Whimsical summer with bright colors and
flowers?
Fiesta theme with Margarita and a
sombrero?
Whatever you do, you
should never feel intimidated when planning a
summer get-together. These informal parties are
all about enjoying good company, a few drinks,
some delicious food and most importantly, some
rest and relaxation. Remove the hassle from the
equation of planning a summer party with our
tips.
Pick a Date
-
Saturday is ideal since it allows your guests
to stay late if they want without having to
worry about getting out of bed the next morning
for work.
Plan a date that’s convenient for you and
you don’t have too many other things going on
before the party.
Determine Your Guest List
- Who’s coming?
Friends, family or both?
Will
your party be large and all-inclusive or small
and intimate? Invite guests that will have fun
at the kind of event you want to host.
Keep in
mind, the summer season is long so you don’t
have to invite everyone over at once. A good way
to reconnect and spend time with people is to
keep gatherings smaller.
Send Out Invites
-
Don't forget to invite your guests. It doesn’t
have to be a formal paper invitation, however
there are some fun themed invitations that can
really set the mood for the event.
Even online invitations can be fun and
set the mood for your party by adding clip art
and color to the email or use one of the many
online invitation companies.
Plan Your Menu
Steak, fish or hotdogs?
Keep the
menu for your summer party simple. Try to keep
your food options down to a few choices per
course. For a casual outdoor get together,
consider skipping the appetizers altogether and
head straight for the grill. Ask guests to bring
a salad or dessert if they offer to contribute.
There are many menu options, just figure
out your budget and stick to it.
This is only one meal, you don’t
have to feed everyone for a lifetime!
Freshen Up Decor
It's summertime, which means it's a time to
celebrate color!
Decorate your table with bright summer
colors and votive candles to set the mood after
the sun goes down. You don’t have to get fancy -
paper party supplies are perfect
and just
a few small items can make a big difference!
MOST OF ALL, Have fun
and enjoy your guests.
Need help setting up or cleaning up?
Want someone to tend to the bar while you
talk to your guests or man the grill?
Rent-a-Prep can provide staff to help
will all aspects of your party.
Bartenders, waiters, dishwashers,
servers, general cleanup…we can do it all.

May is Graduation Time............ |
|
|
|
|
 |
Celebrate your Graduate!!! It's a time of
accomplishment and they need to be recognized.
Whatever you do, your Graduate needs to be the
center of attention and enjoy the party.
Pick a theme...If your Grad is an athlete, go
for the sporting idea; In the Band?...go with a
music theme; Like to travel? Hawaii,
Paris? Pick an idea that interests your
Grad and go wild with it. Decorate the
entrance to the party to set the mood and then
carry that theme throughout.
Don't forget to decorate out side as well as
inside the house. Go ahead and go a little
overboard, it took a long time for your
Grad to get to this point so make them feel
special. It will be a day your and
your Grad will never forget.
