As summer rapidly approaches, more people are planning dinner parties, including those for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, graduations and upcoming holiday celebrations.
Top tips for putting on a hip and trend dinner party, leaving guests satisfied and longing for more, includes:
- Signature Cocktail – Having a signature cocktail adds an instant spark to any party, helping make it memorable. To save money on cocktail ingredients, consider purchasing in bulk. Hosts can further same time by premixing cocktails in a stylish pitcher, setting glasses on the countertop and creating a self-serve bar area.
- Silver Bowls – Having enough snacks to keep guests satisfied is important. Consider placing snacks in silver bowls, which creates a sense of uniformity and style. Popular snack ideas include cheese straws, crackers, cheeses, nuts and olives.
- Dim the Lights – By creating the perfect ambience, guests will have a better time. Simply dimming the lights and adding a soft candle glow casts a light that will make guests feel simply glamorous.
- Playlist – Having a mixed up playlist that blends classic, light dance mixes and even music for an after party, is an essential key for throwing a successful, fun-filled dinner party.
- Cook the Familiar – A dinner party is no time to experiment with a fancy, complicated recipe. Consider selecting a meal that is delicious, easy to cook and appeals to a variety of people. Chicken is an ideal choice, as it is inexpensive to feed a large group and is appealing to most guests.
- Dessert – Dessert should be simple and not stressful. Instead of going all out with a complicated, time-sensitive Baked Alaska, consider purchasing a pound cake and serving it with a raspberry sauce and vanilla ice cream. Garnish with a few fresh berries and voila a stunning, simple and delicious dessert is served.
- Embrace the Season – Always use cloth napkins, as this elevates a dinner party from a simple gathering to one that oozes sophistication and style. Consider dotting seasonal decor on tables, including shells for summer, small pumpkins and apples for fall, evergreen foliage for winter and even beautiful, blossoming branches in spring.
- Flowers – Never underestimate the importance of decorating with flowers. Flowers can make the ultimate simple statement.
- Finishing – Never rush guests out the door, but give them plenty of time to digest their meals. Offering after-dinner drinks, including coffee and cocktails, will help create a memorable evening.
- Guests – Hosts should never clean up while guests are there, but spend the time focusing on their friends.
