Ok Im probably the only one on here that has my parties early in October. Mine this year will be Saturday October 11th.
Last year we had ours the Friday before Halloween...Big Mistake,,,there were other friends of friends that had their parties the same night.
For us it just works better to have it earlier then everyone else, plus the weather may be a bit warmer at the begining of the month.
