Great! So, date and venue are sorted. Now, let's talk about the guest list. Should we send out a general invite, or do we want to keep it to a specific group this year?

Agreed. And for food, are we leaning towards a potluck again, or should we consider catering this time? Catering might simplify things.

Catering would definitely be less work, but it's also more expensive. Maybe a hybrid? We arrange some main dishes, and guests bring desserts or appetizers?

叫外卖肯定省事，但也更贵。也许可以混合一下？我们准备一些主菜，客人带甜点或开胃菜？
