Champagne is a symbolic representation of a celebration and fresh beginnings. Champagne will be the first thing that goes pop when the clock strikes midnight. Make sure you don't miss the countdown!

Whether you want to create a sit back & relax vibe or dance vibey party, create a practical and picturesque NYE tablescape. Decorate with socializing in mind. Don't overdecorate or use bulky vases that cut off the field of vision.

Set up distinct party zones:

– Food station: Make sure guests can help themselves to appetizers and snacks.

– Bar area, bar cart, or beverage station: A separate self-serve bar space keeps guests circulating and encourages socializing. Don't forget to include nonalcoholic options. Consider setting up a snacks and drinks area especially for teens and kids.

– Television console or entertainment center: Make sure everyone can see the countdown to midnight. Set an alarm to remind you to tune into live coverage and put it up on the big screen.

– Coat check: Don't forget to set aside an area for guests' coats. A closet is the obvious choice, but if you need additional space, place them on a bed or in an armoire.

Keep guests entertained with fun party games. Have everyone write down a resolution or goal for the new year. Post them on a decorative board or put in a bowl and have guests pick one and guess who made that resolution.
