You have moved into your new beautiful home. Now it is time to share your new space with your favorite people. A housewarming party can be hosted by either the new owners of the home or by a friend or family member. The main purpose of the party is to celebrate the event with a big bash! If you choose to have a theme party, you could base it on the style of home or the name of the neighborhood or area the house is located in. Here are some great ideas to host your party.
5 Summer Sandal Ideas To Wear To Work
– If you are moving from another town, you could have the guests all help to develop a reference book with the listings of their favorite places in town. Have guests each add a page – best restaurants in town, hairdresser, alterations, doctors, bookstores, ice cream, manicures, ect.
– Another idea would be to have an “around the town” party, similar to an “around the clock” party. Each guest would be responsible to highlight the part of the town that was assigned to them by the host – they would give positives and negatives of that particular area, plus a gift from the area.
– Have all the guests bring something that the owners have an interest in. For example, if the honoree is an avid reader, have everyone bring a book to increase the new library! If the owner loves music, have everyone bring them their favorite new CD! This one is fun because you could dance the night away to all of the new music!
– Hold the housewarming party like a wine tasting party. Have several wines out for the guests to sample. Be sure to have the guests bring a wine goblet to use and then leave at the home for the guest of honor to have.
– Hold a ribbon cutting ceremony outside the home in the front yard. Write the owners’ name on a thick ribbon that is tied across the front of the house.
A nice touch is to have a house blessing done by the owner’s priest, minister, or rabbi. Sometimes the group will enter each room as a prayer is said for the blessing of each room in the new home, while other times a simple prayer is done for the whole house.
