As leaves turn jewel tones and then fall to the ground, it is the perfect time to have a party. Whether the event has a football theme or is just an excuse to gather friends or family, this is the perfect way to welcome the fall season. Organizing an enjoyable fall party is not difficult to do and requires only a small budget and a bit of creativity. Learn the secrets of planning a party that everyone will want an invite to each fall.
Decorating tor a Fall Party
Turn the home into a celebration of the season by adding leaf accents to shelves and tables, hanging a fall-themed banner from the fireplace mantel or a window, and accenting the room with pumpkins in different shapes and sizes. White pumpkins look elegant and using pedestals or stacks of vintage books to scatter their heights creates visual interest. Let kids help with decorating by painting pumpkins in single colors and displaying them on the buffet table.
A wickless candle warmer is an easy way to add fall fragrance to the home. Select a pumpkin-themed warmer or a plug-in warmer featuring painted leaf accents. Caramel pear crisp, pumpkin roll, pumpkin marshmallow, and autumn sunset are some fall fragrances available for wickless wax bars that melt in the warmers. This is a way to make the home smell great without the worry of a candle flame.
Planning a Fall Party Menu
Fall expands the menu options to include apples, pears, pumpkins, and squash. Guests of all ages will enjoy spaghetti squash and pumpkin bread. Serve main dishes that are warm and hearty like chili, chicken wings, and lasagna. For dessert, make a pumpkin or apple pie or a pear and apple crisp. Everyone will definitely be going back for seconds! Or how about a chocolate fondue with wickless warmers? Just plug in your fondue warmer, add your favorite chocolate, let it melt, then dip away with your chosen fruits... Can you say YUM? Ahh and the chocolate aroma will entice your senses too!
Apple cider is the perfect beverage for a fall party and adding sparking water turns it into a sparkling drink. Prepare fall-themed apple pie martini, cranberry spritzer, and pumpkin punch cocktails for adult guests. As the party continues, add munchies and a tureen of delicious homemade pumpkin soup to the buffet table so guests can snack while socializing.
Party Favors Perfect for Fall
A party is not complete without some favors and those with a fall theme are best. Make gift baskets featuring fall-themed room sprays, hand soap, scented travel tins, scent packs for drawer refreshing, and scent circles to hang in closets. Guests will take a bit of fall into their homes, making them feel more festive. Give each of the youngest guests an adorable stuffed animal filled with a fall scent pack.
A wickless candle warmer is a party favor that keeps on giving. Choose a small, mid-size, or full-size warmer or a style that plugs directly into an electric outlet. Add a few packages of wax bars featuring fall fragrances and package everything in a gift bag accented with raffia. Give the bags to guests as they are leaving so they have something to use throughout the year. Your party will definitely be a hit!
