How to Hold a Housewarming Party.
You don’t need to wait until your home is in perfect shape or until everything is unpacked. It can be relatively informal and simple event. Your home is the main attraction so you don’t need to plan lots of activities to keep your guests amused.
They are far more interested in the tour of your house. When you issue invitations to this party, giving good directions will be very important. Try to “open house” invitations stating date & range of hours that guests are invited to drop by. Formal invitations are unnecessary. Plan house tours. Assign somebody to answer the door and comfort guests until next tour. You can also allow guests to give self-guided tours. If you’ve made extensive renovations to your home, post a “before” picture outside each room.
This is an ideal situation for casual, finger foods since guests will be wandering from room to room. Holding a housewarming party is a good way to welcome new and old friends to your home. And a great way to meet the new community.
