Have folks look for their gifts and see if they can guess their gift giver. Keep things a secret and ask people to put their gifts into a big pile. Send out a mass email reminder a couple of days before the gift exchange to remind people again of the event and to bring their gifts (labeled please!). Each invitee’s gift match (or who they will be buying a gift for and remember do not reveal their gift giver’s name to them!).Gift delivery option and deadline (if not doing a gift exchange event).The gift exchange date, time and location.Send out the following info to participants, either automatically with an online tool or manually if you are pulling names out of a hat: You can choose either to have everyone exchange gifts at the same time in the same location, or ask people to leave or deliver gifts secretively to gift recipients. Give people enough time to do their shopping. Set up a shopping deadline and the date, time and location for the gift exchange. Search online for sites or apps that generate matches instantly and keep the whole process a secret, or do things the old-fashioned way by pulling names out of a hat.
Set a modest spending limit, somewhere between $15 to $25 should suffice in most cases. People shouldn’t have to break the bank for a friendly gift exchange, plus you don’t want unequal, or over the top exchanges to take place.
Strive for an even amount of people so you’ll have an equal exchange of gifts.
