It’s important to consider your guests’ preferences because at the end of the day, it's the remarkable experience and the moments that count. Here’s how to host the most amazing party at your place!

· Mix n’ Match

Have a friend who loves Chinese food? Or have another friend who loves to gorge on Italian delicacies? Opting for different cuisines will help you win hearts at the dinner table. Cook up some Italian, Chinese, or Mexican dishes to win everyone over. After all, a successful party is all about flavors, aroma and having an unforgettable time together.

· Think About Starters and Drinks

After you’re done deciding the mains for the party, it’s time to take care of other details. Sure, décor is important too, but most guests are more interested in drinks, appetizers, and starters. So set your table with some cocktail drinks, tempting starters, and lip smakcing appetizers.

· Music, Movies, and Games

Everyone loves to have some fun at parties. And that's why you need to have some fun games, eating competitions, and music to take your party to the next level. So plan a game where whoever gobbles the most empanadas, wins the game! You’ll need to cook up a large batch of your empanadas or other appetizers, but turning it into a game will be so much fun!

· Make it a Themed Party

Theme parties call for innovation, some vibrant colors, and lots of fun activities. So, prepare yourself right by choosing a fun theme and sticking to it. Buy décor around this theme, opt for fun-looking paper plates, and even ask your guests to dress according to the party’s theme. Trust us, going with a theme will make your party all the more fun!
