ENTERTAINING WITH ELEGANCE
When it comes to hosting a soirée, it’s all about the details. To ensure a seamless event, we always rely on these 6 effortless hosting tips.
1.
Lighting is everything: bedeck the space with candles for a perfect glow. Create a cluster of pillar candles of different heights for a sophisticated centerpiece.
2.
Mix it up: use handwritten place cards if you’re serving dinner, so guests can mix and mingle with people they’re less familiar with.
3.
Musical notes: curate a playlist in advance, so wonderfully soft sounds play throughout the night. Jazz, swing, and classical music are always timeless choices.
4.
Prepare in advance: set the table and cook well before guests arrive, allowing you to fully enjoy your family and friends without having to worry about what’s going on in the kitchen.
5.
Cloth napkins: a lovely tactile touch for guests, and totally worth the extra laundry.
6.
A staple drink: to avoid bartending all night, serve a main drink that complements the theme or time of year. Having a signature cocktail for the evening is an elegant addition to any event.
