***
They say the devils in the details, but for me the details are heaven. Maybe an avid planner and host like me should say that in the course of the party Im on a cloud of joy, but that would be a lie. Planning and preparing are my favorite parts of the process. Truth be told, when it comes to the actual parties, Im a nervous wreck. But there is a moment of joy. Mine comes when I see the party come together. The guests are flowing through the space, tasting food, trying out any activities, having conversations with friends and strangers. And when I see someone take a bite of dessert, or try out a photo booth costume, or smile as they pick up a favor, well, that makes it all worth it.
Creating a party. Its my favorite thing to do, and Im inviting you, as my guest, to join me in the festivities. I know were going to have fun. Comediscover your inner party planner!
Love, Tori

introduction

a party planner is born I come from a family that did everything over the top - photo 9

a party planner is born

I come from a family that did everything over the top. We had the grandest house and the biggest parties. Whenever most people had one of something, we had fivefrom cars to bathrooms to dogs. I remember going to my parents famous parties as a child. There was a Christmas party every year, where thousands of dollars must have been spent on the caviar alone. For one huge New Years Eve bash my parents rented out the parking lot of the popular Beverly Hills restaurant Chasens and tented it. The tent was elegantly swagged and, as I remember it, the entire lot was carpeted. I have no idea where people parkedI was young and blissfully free of such concernsbut there must have been a valet. There was a private patio at Chasens that was often used for parties, but even as a kid I was aware that booking the whole parking lot on New Years Eve was a big deal.

What made my mothers parties amazing (because, lets face it, my father was a little too busy making TV shows) were the grand florals, the gleaming silver trays, the exquisite food presentation, and elegant details like a piano player or a soloist. But spectacular as those parties were, party planning has evolved. The parties were extravagant, yesthe massive refilling bowls of caviar, a whole roast pig with an apple stuffed in its mouthbut they were simple in concept nonetheless.

My mothers parties have changed with the times, and these days she continues to set a high bar, embellishing her customary extravagance with amazing little touches that inspire me in my comparatively humble, do-it-yourself way. Take the spectacular candy table, which filled an entire room at her Christmas party. It had an electric train running full circle around it, through a village of colorful candy jars and confections artistically placed at different heights. My mothers candy table was a catered masterpiece, and I cant exactly replicate the splendor of that creation. When I do a candy table, I do it myself, with store-bought candy and inexpensive canisters, but given the price difference I have to say it gives hers a run for the money.
