Whether you’re hosting a small crew or a big family gathering here’s my top tips for hosting at home this year: 

No. 1 : even those who don’t post still love a good selfie, use a backdrop or wall to create the perfect photo spot. You could even add a fujifilm_instax_northamerica and ask guests to leave a photo! 

No. 2: welcome guests with a drink, small bites, or merch. It’s a nice surprise and ensures you can personally greet each guest. 

No.  3:  appetizers and small bites are your best friend even if you’ll have a full spread of food. Guests who arrive early/on time will appreciate having something while you wait for more  guests to arrive. 

No. 4: plan food and beverage  with all guests in mind. Even when I know every single guest very well I still always ask if there’s any dietary restrictions.

No. 5: games and activities are your best friend! Having a watch party? Make a friendly wager on the score. Buy fun games like kulturekaraoke or do_or_drink !
