Spirits, Beer Or Wine? You Pick!
Cocktail party ideas bring to mind old-school Hollywood, so play up the retro glam factor by turning off the overheads, lighting silver candlesticks and scattering a few vases of roses around the room.
You need everyone talking, so move couches back to the edge to make more space to circulate. If you want to give party attendees a spot to break off and engage in private conversations (not to mention offer a brief respite from their high heels), create little sitting areas with dining chairs and a couple of little folding tables to serve as drink parking places.
Just don't line up chairs one after another against the wall, junior-high-dance style, no wallflowers on your watch. The final touch: a couple of pens and small blank pads strategically placed around the room to encourage starry-eyed would-be lovers to vice digits.
Next on the list of cocktail party ideas is , set up an area for your bar and stock it with booze, juices, sodas, club soda, ice, fruit garnishes, pimiento-stuffed olives, assorted glassware, shot glasses, a cocktail shaker, a stirrer, swizzle sticks, cocktail napkins and a cocktail recipe book for flashes of liquid creativity.
If you want to pull out all the stops, go on a shopping spree at your local drinking store, then employ a bartender for the evening. On a budget and don't want to get caught behind the bar all evening? Multiply a single classic cocktail recipe by ten, mix them up in pitchers, and label each one — then all you have to do is set out an ice bucket and tell guests to help themselves. Or supply in a few favorite mixers and liquors, create a amazing drink menu with recipes, title it "Specialties of the House" and let guests make their own.
Whatever you decide, do not bother serving same old wine and beer. Half of what puts the party in cocktail party is the novelty of relishing perfect drinks you do not have the other 51 Saturdays of the year.
According to most cocktail party ideas and tips, sparkling conversations is what makes a cocktail party really swing, but if you want to shake things up a bit, try these cocktail contest ideas:
* Let the martini snobs compete for best mixologist. Be sure you have vodka, gin, dry vermouth, olives, pearl onions, lemon twists, a shaker and a stirrer on hand to unleash the martini magic.
* Challenge guests to create the best new cocktail (ridiculous cocktail name mandatory) from your collection of liquors, mixers, garnishes, swizzle sticks, and drink umbrellas.
* Play a mixed-drink take on Mad Libs. Ask one guest to come up with an adjective and another a noun (for example, Tasty Pie or Hot Wax), then ask the contestants to make that drink; best version wins.
* Give guests a shot at top showoff by seeing who is best at flipping shakers and seriously pouring refreshments. use the plastic shakers and glasses for this competition, and hold it in the kitchen, where the spills that go with the thrills shalt lead to carpet-cleaning bills.
Hence, with such tips enlisted in cocktail party ideas, your party can never be a flop-show!
What should I ask guests to bring as gifts for a "Stock the Bar Party"?
I am throwing a "Stock the Bar" party for a couple that will be getting married in May & the goal is to stock their bar for the wedding reception. We are all in the latter part of our 20's (just to give you an idea of the age range) I'm still in the very early planning stages of the party. However, I need to know what sort of gifts (besides liquor or beer) to ask the guests to bring for the couple. I'm also planning to list their favorite drinks, to make sure those supplies are covered. Is there anything else that I'm missing?
Shakers
Stirrers
Disposible Cups
Margarita Salt
Ice Buckets & Tongs
Drink Garnishes
Coasters
Beverage Napkins
Wine Charms
Bottle Openers
Cork Screws
Little cups & bowls & small plates to put the nuts & cocktail snacks in.
