Let them Serve Themselves
Relax, it's a party! Sure, people like their burgers cooked to different levels of doneness, and so-and-so wants another beer, but you don't need to chase after everyone all night. Make sure there's ample food and drink for all to enjoy, and replenish both as needed. If you let your guests fill their plates themselves, there will likely be less waste, as well, because they'll only take what they want. So kick back and enjoy your work!
