How I did it: A year before the big event I coordinated with my Mom that we would all meet the following year for either Thanksgiving or Christmas. We had all the other family member commit to coming and gave them a full year to plan financially. It all worked out perfectly and was worth all the effort that was put into it.

Lessons & tips: Plan far in advance. If you schedule events that cost money make sure everyone know about the events so that they can plan financially. Be aware of special needs (medical or otherwise) and be open to others input as to what they would like to accomplish during the reunion.
