One of the toughest aspects of planning a party is determining not only what food you will offer, but how much
you will need. Many factors come into play when determining the quantity of food you will need including:
time of day your party is taking place, length of party, type of food being served, amount of food options you are
serving, your guests (primarily men? women? children?). This chart is a general guideline of how much food
you will need based on the number of people attending. This, of course, is not a science but a great way to get a
base idea of what you may need for your upcoming event.
