Last time
Budget was a few hundred dollars short
Fewer attendees than last time
Food (menu and amount) was good
**Dinner was a bit much, but not obnoxiously so
People were less engaged, feedback came in that they had the expectation it was about the party?
Need to set expectations better about the schedule
