2. Keep Your Small Circle
Don't think you have to over invite, most of the time, parties like this are more successful with a small group of close friends. Keep it intimate and cozy, make sure you have plenty of seating areas, food, and drink for your guests.
Keeping it small not only keeps it intimate, but it also keeps it cheaper for you.
3. Bring Your Own Color
Your party doesn't have to be fall-themed, with Friendsgiving you can make it unique and unforgettable. Bring some flair to your Friendsgiving! Ideas would be:
- Pom Pom themed
- Boho theme
- Buffalo check theme
- Elegant pink theme
4. Enjoy What You're Doing
Try not to stress too much on details or things going wrong. If you are having a good time, your guests will have a good time, and that is what is important!
5. Play Games
Plan at least two or three games to play with your guests, Thanksgiving-themed of course! Don't forget to come up with some cool prizes for whoever wins the games.
Fun game ideas would be:
- Thanksgiving Bingo
- Scattergories
- Pie eating contest
- Turkey leg wrap
- Thanksgiving trivia
Fun prizes would be:
- Cozy fall throw
- Scented fall candles
- Homemade cookies
6. Be Innovative
Create something like a gift or decoration that really stands out to your guests. Think of something like:
- Small gift bags
- Mini pies they can take home
- A sign-in sheet for your guests
Make it something memorable!
7. Be Thankful
Have you and your guests write down what they are thankful for and put it in a jar to read aloud, or go around the room and mention what you are thankful for.
Maybe think of a giant sheet for your guests to sign in and write what they are thankful for.
Thanksgiving is a time to connect and share with friends and family, have fun and make memories!
