A Hauntingly Beautiful Halloween Dinner Party
PARTY INSPIRATION FOR A SPOOKY HOLIDAY NIGHT
Contributed by Conni Jesperson of Art in the Find.
It’s that perfect time of year… the last few months of 2020 are underway… Fall is in full swing and the line-up of monthly events bring friends & family to your door (although, maybe a much smaller group than in previous years). Although we probably won’t be hosting a large souree this year, we can still dream and plan! So, here are some tips on how to host a most sumptuous meal for a warm & spooky night with close friends.
Style Tip #1 — Set the Stage
Create not only a setting for the table but also designate a spot for drinks and appetizers to be served when guests first arrive. Whether it be an entry way, a hall, or a foyer, set the stage for an elegant evening with an immediate visual impact upon entry for your guests.
Style Tip #2 — Add low key DIY elements,
Like apples with spray painted gold tops, terrariums filled with seasonal florals or pumpkins, bowls overflowing with gourds and mini white glitter pumpkins. Then fill in the space with a beautifully stated floral centerpiece using jars and pitchers from the kitchen.
Style Tip #3– Small Details Count
From creating custom menus for your guests, to adding moss plate “chargers” under the plates, small details are a fun way to bring the dinner together to create a memorable event.
