HOST A NON TRADITIONAL DINNER PARTY-PART 2
Hey love! I recently shared some amazing ideas on how to throw a Non Traditional “Secret” Dinner Party. Today I have another great concept for non traditional dinner party that I’m certain you are going to love!
Host the Ultimate Progressive Dinner Party!
Progressive dinner parties typically involve a three course meal served in three different homes. This is ideal for a group of friends who are looking to entertain outside the scope of your average “get together’. However, those who know me know that I absolutely LOVE to take everything to the “next level”. Instead of going to three different homes in one evening, I’m thinking a chauffeur, eight to ten of your fabulous friends and three different dining out experiences………..
1. Set the stage for the entire evening by having appetizers and cocktails at a wine or tapas bar. Pre-select menu items that will pair well with the entrée and dessert. Have the restaurant set up a private area so it feels like a mini cocktail party!
2. When deciding on the restaurant for the entrée think “ambiance”. Reserve a private room. Decorate the tables with crisp linen, a beautiful centerpiece and an amazing table setting. Adorn the table with candles. Have the restaurant play light music or arrange for a musician. Ask the chef to make an appearance and interact with your guests about the meal.
3. Now its time for the sweetest part of the evening! Im thinking a chic dessert bar with three sumptuous courses paired with dessert wine, coffee, or tea. A location with a DJ or live band could definitely turn your progressive dinner party into a progressive night out!
Glamorously yours,
