Throw a successful Christmas party this year! Check out Party Host Helpers’ last-minute tips for success below.
Empty the dishwashers beforehand so your Helpers have space to clean up as they go.
Put out some reindeer games for the kids!
Have a hot cocoa bar for the kids and including all the fixings’ such as candy canes, marshmallows, caramel, and more. Yum!
Have your Helper arrive early so you can show them around and they can set up. Plus you can have plenty of time to get ready.
Prep food in advance when possible. Cut cheese and veggies the night before.
Write down a timeline of when food needs to go into the oven and at what temperature to alleviate questions.
Set up a fun Christmas playlist with everyone’s favorites
Use candies in glass bowls to decorate (and then eat for dessert!)
Have your cold apps out when guests arrive so those drinking are not drinking on an empty stomach
Someone staying in the guest room? Use the shower rod as a spare closet for coats (but don’t turn on the water.)
Keep trash bags handy
Make a signature cocktail (or two!) to serve guests a festive treat.
Use gift tags and sharpies to label each person’s cup.
Put your recycling can indoors so guests can properly dispose of their beer bottles, wine glasses, and plastic cups.
