Plan your family reunion at the best family resort in Marrakech

Posted by Mountains Palace on September 23rd, 2019

A family reunion is a wonderful way to keep your entire family connected, especially if you have a large extended family. A memorable family reunion takes time and plenty of planning, but with the right steps, you can make memories that last a lifetime.

Make Lists

The first step is to determine which family members will make the invitee list. You need to draft this list carefully as you want to avoid leaving anyone out. Start with your immediate family and then see how far you want to branch out. Are you including second and third cousins? Are you forgetting the "family members" that may technically not be family, but are close enough to count? Once you know how far you want to branch out, make sure to reach out to everyone within those spectrums. Take your time making these lists and collaborate with other family members to ensure that you are not leaving someone uninvited.

Create Committees

Because planning a reunion includes a large number of different tasks, it makes sense to create committees. You can decide what type of committees you need for your exact situation, but a few ideas include a committee for each of the following: invitations, activities, premises, and an accountant to manage the funds to make the reunion happen. Depending on how savvy your family is with today's technology, you could also set up a committee to handle social media pages or even a webpage for the reunion to keep everyone in the loop and to give everyone a simple way to communicate.

Choose a Location

Involve as many family members as possible to help choose the perfect location. Try to think outside of the box, rather than planning a traditional picnic or using a banquet hall with a DJ. Give your family members the opportunity to participate in activities at the reunion, similar to those that are provided at Mountain Palace, one of the Best Family Restaurant in Marrakech rather than relying on simply eating and talking. If your reunion will take place in the summer, a location that offers outdoor activities, such as horseback riding, challenge courses, swimming, or boating might offer your reunion an element of fun that was missing before.

Set the Date

It is impossible to please every person in your family when it comes to choosing a date for the reunion at the Best Family Restaurant in Marrakech, but if you choose the date far enough in advance, it will give everyone enough time to plan and rearrange other plans, should they need to. Consider sending out "save the date" reminders to your family members six months to a year in advance to ensure that they keep the date open.
