1. Book a Peerspace venue and change your scenery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If this is the first party you\u2019ve hosted in a while, it will be a special treat to rent a party venue<\/a> on Peerspace and live it up! Peerspace uncovers thousands of unique spaces in hundreds of cities, offering exceptional places to celebrate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just for an example, check out this New York City loft with a rooftop<\/a> (pictured above). It\u2019s beautiful and can accommodate up to 120 guests in 2,500 square feet of space, and it has a fabulous view and sound system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or, for a private indoor-outdoor affair, take a look at this Vancouver, BC luxury home<\/a> with a kitchen, a swimming pool, and city and ocean views from the multiple balconies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, our friends in Austin, TX can book this cider bar in MLK<\/a>. It’s a cidery with a tasting room and outdoor patio that provides seating for 50, an optional sound system add-on, optional staffing, and an array of hard and non-alcoholic drinks to delight your guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bonus: you won\u2019t have to clean your house before and after the event! We’ll share more awesome Peerspace party venues with you ahead!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Set a theme to enhance your guests’ excitement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It doesn\u2019t have to be an overtly themed party to be fun \u2013 although unicorn parties are all the rage nowadays, for a good reason. Instead, just like having a party brand identity, a thematic throughline will help you plan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, select two colors that will give the event a cohesive feel. Or, if you\u2019re aiming for a swanky soiree, use matching dishware or serve food and beverages along a regional theme. This simplifies party planning when you\u2019re shopping for supplies or even when you\u2019re directing potluck guests regarding what to bring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Be the host with the most and soften the sound<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

How many times have you dined at a restaurant with terrible acoustics or too loud music? It\u2019s hard to hear one another converse and sometimes difficult to enjoy your meal when background music transforms into a din of high-decibel sound pollution. Most guests are going to want to talk to one another and catch up at the party. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One tip to hosting a stellar party is to, yes, have music on, but to keep it soft \u2013 unless you\u2019re hosting a rager, in which case, blast it (but tell the neighbors first!). Managing the music level is one super underrated trick for hosting a meaningful party where strangers go home as friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Organize some games to prevent the doldrums<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"LA <\/picture>

If it\u2019s appropriate to the event, one way to elevate your party is to provide games. These can be silly or hypercompetitive, or anything in between. Think limbo, pin the tail on the donkey, or a cakewalk for a retro throwback to childhood parties. Or set up a casino-style arrangement of adult card games such as no-stakes poker. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This blue house with a green door party pad in Los Angeles, CA<\/a> has a saltwater pool, lawn games, and an outdoor movie setup to keep you and your guests entertained with ease. You can also book this airy luxe game room in Baton Rouge, LA<\/a> for party hosting. It has a poker table, a pool table, and a bar that has everything but the liquor. Sounds like a fun night to us!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introverted guests, in particular, love a distracting party game. They can enjoy themselves and meet new friends without stressing about coming up with small talk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. …Or opt for attractions instead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"bohemian <\/picture>

But if games aren\u2019t your scene, another great way to add some sparkle is to provide attractions. A prime example is a photo booth for Instagrammable images that will commemorate the party through time immemorial. Maybe bring in a magician. While you may intend your party to be a conversation- and food-filled gathering, sometimes a little structured entertainment can help you host a party to remember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Tell your guests in advance if you’ll serve food and drink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Outdoor <\/picture>

Be clear on the invitation whether there will be food, booze, both, or neither. This is a considerate thing to do when hosting a party, so guests can come prepared to expect a full meal, prepare themselves for simple appetizers, or whether they should fill up first lest hanger takes over. And if it\u2019s a potluck-style gathering or a barbecue, indicate on the invites what you’re asking guests to bring. Being specific about food is a subtle but effective way to host a successful party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Don’t forget to put some thought into the invites<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"glam <\/picture>

Speaking of invitations, the party host has many choices, all of which have pros and cons. Sending paper invites can be an entertaining solution. Who doesn\u2019t like to receive paper mail (that\u2019s not a bill) today? Pretty paper invitations make it tough to forget the party, either before it’s happening or afterward. The cons are that stamps are somewhat pricey, and the host will need to gather everyone\u2019s physical addresses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digital invitations, whether via email or social media, are more common these days, which means they\u2019re easier to forget, might get lost in guests\u2019 spam boxes, and, well, predictable. However, sending a digital invitation as a calendar event increases an RSVP and sets up automated reminders for the guests. It allows the host a semi-accurate headcount as the planning phases unfurl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. It\u2019s the little things that ensure guests’ comfort<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Downtown <\/picture>

To host a spectacular party is a compilation of little things that go unnoticed. Make sure there is a ton of ice because no one likes a warm soda \u2013 or martini. Replace your hand towels with paper towels and supply a ton of hand soap. Speaking of supplies, stock the bathroom with toilet paper and make sure the extra rolls are visible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These special touches help guests feel cared for, and they won\u2019t have to ask for assistance to chill out and enjoy themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. And finally, our top party-hosting trick \u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"underwater <\/picture>
Source: Peerspace<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Is not to overthink things. Guests are going to be so thrilled to be out of their homes and socializing with friends new and old that they\u2019re not going to notice if the flatware and the dishware clash \u2013 or even if they are disposable! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve assembled the attendees, found a fantastic place to host, figured out the theme, food and beverages, and you\u2019re all stocked up on TP and soap. The music is at just the right volume, and there are games and activities should things get awkward. Try to give up control and let everyone enjoy themselves, so you can too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
