GOOD COMMUNICATION
Communication is essential in planning acelebration. More than likely not everyone willagree on all of the decisions to be made. Youshould agree to disagree respectfully. Somethings just arent importantenough to argue
over. A little bit of cooperation is beneficial forall people involved in the planning process.
Discuss financial responsibilities ahead of time.Remember that just because someone is taking
on most of the f inancial responsibility that doesnot mean that they have the most say or makemost of the decisions. On the other hand,be gracious of requests on behalf of those
who are investing. Keep three words in mind:communication, respect and compromise.
