HOLIDAY CHRISTMAS PARTY RECIPES & TIPS
Creating the Perfect Holiday Party Atmosphere
Setting the atmosphere is perhaps the most important element of pulling off a successful holiday party. It's a bit like food. The more appealing it looks, the better it tastes. Now, for a few of our favorite entertaining tips for the holidays:
- - Keep room temperature comfortable. Opt for the cool-side because as guest mingle and move about, body temperatures rise. For those cold-natured souls, keep a few sweaters/lap wraps close at hand. Keep in mind that it's more fun to bundle up in the winter than to sweat - particularly when partying.
- - Dazzle your guests by staging a 'Christmas Caroling' which is guaranteed to gel the spirit of the season. Enlist the help of neighborhood kids or friends and acquaintances that may not be attending your party.
- - Pass out Santa hats to your guests.
- - Play soft and ear-pleasing holiday music rather than putting on a tune that screams. Although music helps set the stage, guests are there to mingle - not to listen to screaming holiday tunes.
- - One doesn't need to serve spirits in order to embrace the spirit of the holidays.
- - Set up a few game tables throughout your entertainment area. Stock them with cards, dominoes and simple games your guests might enjoy.
- - If possible, light a fire. If not, utilize the magic of candlelight.
- - Set season-scented potpourri about the area.
- - Encourage your guests to dress to a different era in holiday history.
- - Consider adding a White Elephant Gift Exchange to your party.
- - Make sure that each guest feels important.
- It's important to keep in mind that one doesn't need to spend big bucks in order to have a successful holiday party. To lighten your load, request that each guest bring their favorite appetizer to the holiday party. To save on decorations, invite nature indoors by incorporating pine branches and pine cones into your decor. And no matter how you celebrate the season, make it special!
