Tips for Fall Entertaining.

Bonfires, pumpkins patches, apple picking and celebrations at home, it must be fall. We love dinner parties and getting together with friends to celebrate this season.

We’ve rounded up a few tips to make this fall entertaining easy as a sunday morning!

1. Spice things up with a new cocktail recipe: get creative with a new signature drink {you’re welcome to check our Toast To Type category} think along the lines of keeping your guests warm, spiked hot chocolate or a hot toddy. Or glam up and serve a coffee martini in our new martini glasses! 

2. Harvest a wonderful guest list: plan in advance and pick a handful of people that will make the evening better and stress free. A top tip: invite your VIP’s to arrive early, it helps you

3. Pick the best date: plan ahead and make sure you’re picking a convenient date for everybody {including yourself!}, if you’re hosting a fall dinner think about a friday evening or a saturday afternoon. 

4. Get the autumn colors {and patterns} from classic navy plaid to buffalo check, maybe herringbone. Give your home some autumn touches with prints and monograms.

5. Fresh, seasonal recipes: we shared a few great fall recipes in our last post, using seasonal and fresh ingredients. Dinner shouldn’t be complicated just let the produce shine!

6. Send them home with a gift and a smile: nothing says “Thank you for coming” more than a bottle of cider, homemade cookies or some baked goods. Your guests will love this gesture!

7. Leaves, leaves everywhere: easiest way to decorate? Gather different leaves and use them as part of your decor, make a garland or dip them in gold paint. Use them for the sitting arrangements, you get the idea!

8. Enjoy, you make this party just perfect: the most important thing is have fun! The hostess sets the mood, you’re the one who made this beautiful party happen, you should enjoy it!
