We all know them – the drunk party guests who threaten to ruin the event for everyone.
Yes, it is the holidays, and we do tend to indulge in food and drink. But it is unfair that a guest who has had too much of his tipple of choice should dictate the mood of the party for everyone else.
So here are a few tips for dealing with the drunk guest:
• Don’t lose your temper – stay calm.
• It is pointless arguing with intoxicated guests.
• Inform everyone beforehand that although you want them to enjoy the event and be merry, they should rather not attend if they can not maintain their alcohol intake and their accompanying behaviour at reasonable levels.
• Don’t embarrass your guests in front of others. Take the tipsy parties aside and address them directly in a friendly manner.
• Tell them that their behaviour is unacceptable and that if they were sober they would agree with you.
• Firmly explain that it is still your house and that you care for their safety and reputation.
• If you cannot get your point across, ask another guest to try and talk to the intoxicated person.
• If you decide to ask them to leave, make sure they get home safely. Call them a taxi or ask someone sober to take them home.
