Vacuum and sweep the floor extra beforehand and keep the pets away from your guests ♥ Know how to set a table, and put a little extra attention in decoration (especially when everyone is staying over for a holiday) ♥ Is your toilet/ bathroom clean? Stock up on toilet papier and other toiletries anyone might need ♥ Music should suit the occasion and shouldn't be that loud so that no-one can carry on a conversation  ♥  Are they sleeping over as well? Always have crispy clean bed-linnen extra (clean) towels and more than enough pillows, sheets and blankets. Nobody should be cold at night! ♥ Make everyone feel welcome, special and appreciated.
