04 Oct 9 elements for a successful party

We all throw a nice party where we invite our friends, colleagues or family. Planning a successful party is not always an easy task. Sometimes it is a stressful situation, because there are a few things you need to get just right. It takes a lot of time and energy.
Do you want to make sure that everyone at your party is going to have a good time?
Below you can find seven essential elements that you can use to help your party become unforgettable and everyone will want come back to another party you have.

1. Have a clear vision of what you want for your party

Close your eyes, and imagine your ideal day/evening. Are you imagine to spent a day with your friends nearby the pool and drinking cocktails? Are you imagine an open party at a big apartment with an amazing view and a lot of dance? Do you wish to organize a  BBQ garden party?
This will boost your morale and guide the rest of the preparation process.

2. Put your personal spin

Add something that makes your party yours. For example, if you are a wine lover, make a wine list that will impress your guests. Or if you love Art, you can create something that reflects you and decorate your space.

3. Festive Décor

Use your imagination and transform your venue into a ‘’Party City’’. Some awesome ideas are folliage and fresh flowers, twinkling candles, streamers, balloons and Colorful throw pillows. Also, a hanging sign that says “Happy Birthday …Name, in glittery letters will be delightful.

4. Finding a Theme

Classic themed parties give a good atmosphere and simultaneously make people have fun. For example, a Mexican party with Mexican treats on buffet, Mexican decoration, music and margaritas could be interesting. Or another idea for summer season, a holiday/beach theme party decoration with tropical plants, pineapple, special drinks based in watermelon, Cuba music and beachwear costume, it would be impressive.
Make the difference!

5. Music

Music is the key to success at a party. In case of a big event like a wedding party or if it is on your budget, arrange a professional DJ or a live band. Otherwise, dedicate some time to create a lively playlist.
If you make a playlist, be sure to have several hours of music and choose songs that will move along the event. Also, consider your guests and find that common musical denominator that defines your crowd and they will enjoy it. The music that plays in the beginning of party should be different from the songs that play afterward. Keep things chill and lounge during the meal, and then bring out the dance tunes to get the crowd moving.

6. Adorable Food

A delicious spread of food gives always a good impression at an organized party. You don’t have to be a crazy cook to set up a gorgeous finger food buffet. Some options are to create a selection cheese platter, sushi rolls platters, chicken fingers or wings, spring rolls, mini pies and Italian-Style bruschetta. Also, you can put on buffet something that will be different and will impress your guests. For example, a tower of strawberries with white and dark chocolate topping looks delicious.

7. Drinks

Undoubtably, drinks are essential part for make fun at a party.  We suggest station set up with ice, bar accessories, and glasses so guests will be able to help themselves. A good selection of alcohol-vodka, tequila, gin and scotch are the big crowd-pleasers. Also, we recommend to have chilled wine and bubbly, that gives a festive spin. If you want something more creative, choose your favorite cocktail and offer it to your guests as a welcome drink.

8. An Element of Surprise

Arrange something that nobody was expecting at your party. It doesn’t have to be crazy. A karaoke competition with a symbolic prize at the winner, an entire table covered in delectable desserts, an expensive magnum of wine, a live music performance, a bubble show, a presentation of sparks or confetti  are some stunning ideas.
