Making Your Dinner Party Memorable
A dinner party is not just a great way to spend time with friends. In fact, you’ll be able to plan and orchestrate an amazing night with the best people you’ve ever known when you have a dinner party involving good food, better drinks and amazing entertainment. You want to make a dinner party a memorable one and it takes some planning to do that.

From the food you plan to the gimlet recipe for happy hour you use for your cocktail hour, you can make an amazing impression on your friends and family. All it takes is the right planning, music and people to make a night a great one. So, how can you make sure that the dinner party you host is a fantastic one?

Making Your Dinner Party Memorable
  1. Consider your guests with care. Your guest list should be crafted with people you think will mesh well together. That means making a list of people you know will gel well in the same room. Of course, you don't have to pick people that are in the same company but knowing who will mingle well can help! Balance out the introverts with the extroverts and you can have a perfect mishmash of people who will chat, laugh and have fun.
Don't overcomplicate it. You can definitely make a molecular cooking menu but you don't have to. A dinner party should have simple foods that are easy to cook and even easier to eat. Don't make heavy starters and even heavier mains, but minimise the courses so that you can keep everyone full but comfortably so.

  1. Vibe the right music. You want a good dinner playlist that elevates the conversation rather than drowns it. You also want to have music that gets people moving after the dessert and during cocktail hour. There’s nothing wrong with a dinner and a dance, and cosy groups of people dancing together can really give you a boost! People need to relax and have fun and music can help.
  2. Make the drinks fun. From sidecars to gimlets, cocktails of classic times can really make the night a memorable one. Of course, you can add in the newer options that you’d see on a menu today such as Mai Tais and Woo Woo, but that doesn't mean that you can’t have an eclectic and delicious mix.
  3. Set a beautiful table. A beautiful dinner party table is set with a gorgeous centrepiece and linens. Even the most casual dinner parties are wonderfully set, and that means being simple with your choices of decor. Don't be afraid to splash out a little and calligraphy names onto place settings; it’s supposed to be fun.
  4. Don't forget the party bags. When you were a child, a party bag was a fun little gift at the end of a birthday so that everyone has something to go home with. Party favours are not just for kids! Adults can enjoy them too and it’s a good way to make it a memorable evening.
