+ Follow-Up With Anniversary Party Guests — With a couple months left until your anniversary, you’ll want to follow-up with any guests you haven’t heard from quite yet.

Finalize Anniversary Party Menu — You don’t want to forget about catering, so be sure to finalize your anniversary party menu early. That way you can focus on the smaller details as your anniversary approaches.

+ Purchase Party Decorations — Your event venue likely has nice decor, but if you’re looking for something specific or special you might need to purchase some party decorations of your own.
