How do you tell a complete party set from a partial one

Count the smallest item in the box. If a set lists 20 plates but only 8 cutlery sets, it is really an 8-person set. A genuinely complete set sizes every consumable to the same headcount, including cups and napkins.

Why do party sets have more napkins than plates?

Napkins are used for drinks, laps and spills, so sets budget four to five per guest against two to three plates. The mismatch is intentional, not a packing error.

Do I still need to buy balloons with a set?

Often yes. Many sets include a banner but no balloons, so check the contents list before assuming the room is covered.
