Set A Date and Time That Is Comfortable with Yourself and Others Attending 

The first step to throwing a successful housewarming party is setting a date and time that suits yourself and the attendees. This sounds obvious but you can then see who can make it, who cannot, and most importantly if it suits you too. Moving home can be busy so allow yourself a reasonable amount of time to get settled in first.  

Send Out the Invitations in Plenty of Time 

To define who is able to attend and who isn’t, make sure to send out RSVPs in plenty of time to ensure that you can prepare enough places at the table, prepare enough food and drinks, and then you get a good idea of who in particular is coming over. You can do these by purchasing invitation cards or finding templates online to create your own that you can send through text or email.

Preparing A List of Food and Drinks 

Now it is time to grab your favourite notepad and pen because now we are onto list-making. This first list is going to be what food and drink you are going to buy. You could even brainstorm the different meal ideas you have in mind ready to ask guests what they would prefer to eat just in case anyone has any dietary requirements. Then with your list ready in hand, you can breeze through the supermarket with everything you need. 

Preparing Your Home and Dining Table for Guests 

Lastly, is preparing your home for the event. The dining room should have a welcoming and calm ambiance, so light some candles, buy a bouquet of flowers for the centerpiece, and grab your favourite dining table set. Don’t be afraid to add some balloons or ‘New Home’ decorations to fit the mood.
