Cover What You Want Protected

Chances are, your carpeting and upholstered furniture was expensive. It makes sense you want to protect that investment. It may seem like a needless expense, but it's wise to invest in a few inexpensive area rugs and couch covers. Before the party begins, take the rugs and place them in high-traffic areas. Protect your couches, chairs and anything that's upholstered with a decorative throw or fitted cover. It's an investment, but a minimal one when you consider the money necessary to replace your living room carpet. Source: WorldofFemale

Extra Garbage Cans

Think about putting a few extra waste paper baskets in your living room, and use plastic glasses and paper party plates instead of glasses and your best china. As well as avoiding breakages, you'll have less washing up to do afterwards. If you shop around you can get some very realistic and fun party sets. They can also fit in with the theme of your party and add a bit of color. Source: RugDoctor

Keep Guests Wrangled. 

Don't let the party spread, otherwise you'll spend all night hunting down half-empty wine glasses and dirty dishes. Keep doors locked or spaces decoratively blocked off to encourage company from wandering. Set up the party where you know guests will feel most comfortable. Source: GoodHousekeeping

Remember the Reason for Your Party

In the end, if you're hosting the kind of casual party where guests will be milling about your home as they eat and socialize, no one is going to expect the dirty dishes and glasses to vanish into thin air. Do what you can within reason to keep most of your rooms tidy throughout the party and you will be forgiven for a few cluttered countertops in the kitchen. Remember, your guests are in your home to spend time with you, not to watch you clean up right under their noses. That would only serve to make them feel guilty for being there and causing you the mess. Source: Entertaining.About
