Create a Positive, Exciting Atmosphere With the Favorite Things Party
Having a theme for meeting friends will help create the right mood and prevent the party from turning into something that everyone is looking at their phones. This is why the “favorite things” theme is the perfect choice.
A party with your favorite things is pretty much like what it sounds like, with each guest bringing one or two things that they really enjoy at the moment. It could be either a new beer they fell in love with or their popular brand of comfy socks. Customize this theme to match your party, here are some options.
- Conversation Starts : Guests are simply telling others about a recent wonderful find, be it super comfy socks or a delightful new restaurant. This encourages the conversation as everyone knows the other guests must have something they love so they have an easy start.
- Guessing Game : Ask each guest to send you their favorite thing before the party, or have each guest write it down upon arrival. Then post each guest’s entry or read them aloud so others can guess which entry belongs to which guest.
- Gift Exchange : Ask everyone to bring a sample of their favorite item and exchange gifts. This option may be more suitable for birthday or holiday parties that are usually associated with gifts. It also limits what favorite things people can bring, as it is difficult to donate an entire restaurant or a weekend trip to a nearby town.
It may sound a little silly, but it gives everyone a reason to look forward and makes your meeting more memorable.
