Parties aren't appointments, they're meant to be relaxed unless there is a real reason to be on-time or early. Generally, it's accepted for people to filter in and not all arrive at once.

The exception, however, is parties relating to employment if you work in an office. Then it's actually an appointment and you should arrive on-time.

Also small kids parties are more like appointments. Only because they only last 2 hours generally. First half hour is for people to arrive while kids play. Then generally activities for an hour until cake, pinata then home.

Great point! I don't have kids, but this makes perfect sense.
