A significant part of being stressed over the holidays is having to plan a party. So, I am here to share all my holiday tips and tricks to delegate party planning tasks. Here are some holiday party planning tips for delegating tasks.
If you want to host a holiday party in your home, you should at least consider delegating some tasks that aren’t too complicated. Therefore, reducing your stress in the process. Let’s make holiday party planning stress-free this year.
Decide What Holiday Party Tasks You Can Delegate
First of all, you can start by making a to-do list that covers everything you need to do, buy, or plan for the holiday party. This lets you know exactly what tasks need to be done. Importantly, which ones you can delegate to others.
To have it be helpful that others lend a hand, instead of causing more problems, simply delegate the simple tasks that are more or less busywork.
For example, you can design the invitation yourself. But mailing them out is usually something someone else can do.
Perhaps your spouse can help write down messages from the caterer and other people. Maybe your sister will take your shopping list and pick up the supplies you need.
Leave The More Complicated Tasks For Yourself
This list will also help you decide what you should do yourself. If you try to give someone else a more complicated task, and they get it wrong, you then get stressed out by trying to fix it. This isn’t going to help with your holiday stress.

For example, if you need help preparing a holiday meal for the party, you can do all the main cooking, since you know how to get it done. But others can help you with simpler things, like chopping vegetables or buying some last-minute items you didn’t get.

Prepare Detailed Lists For People You Are Delegating Tasks
Finally, it can reduce your stress level if you know the people you are delegating tasks to be doing it correctly.
Give them as much information as needed, with detailed lists of the things they need to get done.
Make sure you keep checking in with them, so that if they run out of time or get confused, you can handle it before it turns into a giant stressful situation.
Start slowly by merely handing out one or two minor tasks to people you trust to get them done. If someone seems to have a little more free time and is willing to help, maybe you can give them a few more things to do.
