SOUND FAMILIAR?

The real problem is never actually named

The format gets treated like a seated dinner

Furniture and food both get planned around sitting instead of standing and mingling.

The bar isn't set up to self-serve

The host ends up stuck making drinks instead of a station guests can use themselves.

The food gets too fussy

Elaborate bites take time away from mingling and slow the whole party down.

The room stops moving

Without attention to flow, guests cluster in one spot instead of circulating.

 
WHAT'S INSIDE

Signature Cocktails

Choosing one or two drinks that define the party without overcomplicating the bar.

Stocking the Bar

The Self-Serve Bar

Setting up a bar guests can use themselves so the host isn't stuck there.

Easy One-Bite Appetizers
