If you’re throwing a late-night (after dinner) party, you’ll probably only need around 7 appetizers per person each hour. For parties during the dinner hour that don’t include a meal, prepare around 13 appetizers for each person per hour. Lunch-time party guests will probably eat around 11 appetizers.<\/p>\n
