Hello

BEST WAY TO CELEBRATE SURPRISING PARTY:

1. Select date for party after secretly discovering whether guest of honor will be available that day.

2. Enlist the help of an assistant to create a fake activity for your honoree to attend with him or her.

3. Extend invitations to all guests and make very clear that party will be a surprise, whether it's a verbal, email, or formal written invitation.

4. Let all guests who may have contact with honoree know the planned strategy for tricking guest of honor.

5. Invite all guests to arrive 30 minutes before guest of honor.

6. Tell guests to park out of sight, unless guest of honor believes he or she will be attending someone else's party.

7. If possible, suggest any guests having contact with honoree casually mention they will be attending to some fictitious activity that day.

8. Hold your breath and hope no one slips with the surprise.

Thanks
