How Can I Make My Christmas Party Special?

When hosting a Christmas party, elevating the aesthetic makes all the difference. Set the scene for a memorable holiday feast with our Christmas entertaining and styling tips below.

  • Combine Fancy and Functional with Christmas Glassware

    Serve special cocktails in Christmas drink dispensers and toast to the year that was with glasses your guests will love to hold on to all night. Choose stemware with chic designs or elegant details that complement your Christmas dinnerware and the rest of your holiday tabletop decor.

  • Let Elegant Christmas Serveware Take Center Stage

    The holiday season is the perfect time to elevate your dining experience with luxurious accessories. Choose Christmas trays, cheese boards, and serving stands finished in marble and brass that gleam under the glow of candlelight.

  • Accentuate with Foliage

    Wreaths and garlands have their place in holiday entertaining, too. Incorporate foliage into your Christmas table decor to bring a touch of nature indoors and add warmth to your holiday display. Use a wreath with flameless candles and Christmas balls nestled in the middle as a holiday centerpiece. Garlands can replace traditional table runners on rectangular dining tables.

  • Use Food to Set the Mood

    The holiday season is often celebrated as a time of plenty. Parties are the perfect occasions to get creative with a Christmas charcuterie board and grazing tables. Pile your appetizers and cold cuts in an artful manner on quality acacia serving boards that elevate the aesthetic of your holiday table decorations.

    Don’t leave the kids out of the festivities. Set out homemade decorated cookies on Christmas platters and serve alongside jugs of milk or hot cocoa for a special holiday treat.

  • Create a Grand Christmas Table Centerpiece

    Make your dining table centerpiece a conversation-starter. Think of a motif or color palette to keep all your tabletop decor cohesive and match it to your chosen Christmas tablecloth. Invest in versatile decorative accents that you can use year after year, like lanterns lit up with candles or fairy lights or mini tabletop trees that carry over the Christmas theme to your dining room.

    Consider your table’s shape when planning a centerpiece. Round or square tables do well with one placed in the middle, while rectangular ones can have smaller centerpieces evenly spaced down the length of the table. Sit down to test the height of your centerpiece and make sure your guests still see each other over your decor.

  • Don’t Forget the Little Details

    Channel classic elegance by observing all the little formalities popularized by traditional dinner parties. Place cards, folded cloth napkins, and small dishes of after-dinner mints are all small but memorable details your guests will appreciate.
