How to Throw an Outdoor Holiday Party
Whether you live in a more temperate climate or a snow-covered winter wonderland, an outdoor holiday party can be a very memorable event to share with family and friends. Below are some helpful tips that will make your outdoor party go as smoothly as possible.
1. Roast Yourself on an Open Fire
Set up a fire pit in the middle of your party. It is the perfect place for people to gather around and stay warm, and it will act as your centerpiece. Nothing is better than huddling up around a fire with those you care about most.
2. Festive Lighting
Having good lighting for your outdoor holiday party not only offers some safety for your guests, but it brings a lot of seasonal cheer. Have fun with the decorations and be creative with your lighting.
3. Functional Décor
Put some winter and holiday-themed décor in your yard and patio, but it is even more festive when it serves functionally, as well. Make a bench out of old snowshoes or bring in some sleds to act as seating.
4. Hot Food
The best way to keep people warm is to serve some hot and fresh food and treats instead of just cold snacks. Consider renting a mobile kitchen or food preparation trailer so that your food is readily available and can be prepared on-site for everyone to enjoy. Mobile Kitchens USA offers different units that you can customize to meet your food service needs and accommodate as many guests as you expect at your holiday party.
5. Warm Drinks
Set up a coffee, tea or hot cocoa station with all the fixings, so that your guests can enjoy warm and soothing drinks throughout the night. This is another purpose where the food preparation trailer can come in handy because you can keep the drinks warm and all the fixings nicely presented.
