My engagement party is Saturday and I am sooo sleepy and soooo nervous! Any ideas about how to calm my nerves.
Oh and by the way...my fiance and I are cooking for over 100 people. We are so stressed and I am losing sleep more and more every single night!]
HELP!

What do you guys suggest having it at a restaurant or having it at home and catering it.
I planned our e-party in 1 week. My fh proposed on vacation in LA, and was scheduled for surgery 10 days after we returned, and I really wanted to have the party right away. We had it at my families summer house in Quogue...It was an insane amount of work, if I could go back and do it all over again, I would have had it at a restaurant. We spent about $5k on this party. We had 56 guests, a canopy off of our deck, porta potty, catered by mama sbarros(the food was amazing) Gave out chocolate lollipops and brownies for favors, had a violinst play for the entire 4 hours, had candleabras for centerpieces, I made the invites (ac moore supplies) It was a gorgeous setting, the house is on the beach, so the sunset was amazing over the water, everyone raved about the ambiance, but it was crazy, I had a total breakdown the day before and the day of, unless you have A LOT of time to plan the party out, have it at a restaurant!
