Are you planning to host a New Year’s Eve party? Well, you are in luck. Hosting a party can often be stressful especially when it’s the last party of the year. The pressure of arranging the food, drinks, decorations, and other such things, can be quite nerve-racking. Therefore, we have prepared a list of some tips on how to plan an incredible New Year’s Eve bash at home.
Deck up the Ambience
What is an NYE party without any décor? Deck up the ambience of your home with balloons, fairy lights, and ornaments. You can even choose to dim the lights and get a disco ball to get the party dancing started. A good and well-decorated ambience sets in a good and happier mood for ringing in 2021.
Bring in a theme
Instead of celebrating a regular NYE party, bring in a theme this year. Pick a theme that is not too tough or too bland. To name a few, a black tie, an all-white or a theme in which everyone has to wear something with a sparkle in it. A fun yet elegant theme helps in getting the party started.
Set an accessible bar
A very important aspect of every New Year party is to have the alcohol flowing. This is achievable only by setting up an accessible bar. Make sure that there is more than enough alcohol and that people feel free to pour their own drinks.
Organise fun games
Get the party rolling by organising fun games for your guests. The games will either act as an ice breaker or build stronger bonds. Take your pick from NYE bingo, Kings, or a drinking game. Try to involve as many of your guests as you can and give out New Year gifts to the winners. Even though playing games feels childish, they lead to a ton of fun.
Set up a photo booth
Whether you call only your girlfriends or family, you can never go overboard with a photo booth. Pick a corner of your living room and decorate it with NYE themed balloons. You can also get some headbands, glasses, and shades which welcome 2021. Make new memories with quirky photo props.
Serve Tasty Appetizers
No party can go on without snacks! Serve your guest’s delectable appetizers that pair well with the beverages. Instead of going over the top with a fancy spread, make easy snacks, which don’t require you to work in the kitchen. The best is to keep a cheese platter, which only requires one re-fill.
Have a Dance Party
Irrespective of whom you have invited, you can always have a fun dance party. You can either play the latest songs from the top artists or play songs based on the theme of your party. Encourage people to show their dance moves and perhaps have a fun dance battle.
