The Party
Hello Guys I hope you are well and enjoying your Sunday morning. For me this morning its the first morning that I can really relax, after a fuuuull and super busy period. Luckily , after a two years Covid period, without a lot of real events, this season is full of exciting projects and events.
October also is the month that almost every year I organise a party at home for all my friends. I know maybe will be a bit weird, but I think a house party means more than a night at home with friends. For me a house party means all these weeks that I spent to organise it, to find the inspiration for the decoration, to see images and create scenery that of course should adopt at my apartment . Even if its a bit stress period, I enjoyed it 100% because the result was more that I could ever imagined . Most of them all, a house party means all these positive energy that brings to my house all these happy faces who dressed up and came to party!
Thinking of the period before the party, I still remember the hours that I spend for my inspiration. Every year I try to have another theme and transform my apartment to a totally different space that it used to be. This year theme was the disco ball and all these glam that bring the mirrors and the silver colour.
(I think I have seen all kind of disco balls that at the market, and maybe most of the laser lights that someone can have at home and I mean what’s better that a mirror balloon?!)
So first step was to find the theme, and of course then to send the Save The Day invitations with a small warm up of this year's theme.(because we are in Switzerland everyone has to be informed at least 3-4 weeks in advance)
Except of all the disco theme, I couldn't imagine my party without fresh flowers, and I was sure that my friends at Blumepost (click here for more) were the best to take care of Party's flower deco!
One of the secrets of a good party is of course the Cocktail List.
This year I chose to have a selection of three of my favourite cocktails, The Jamaican Mule - ginger & Rum was (what’s better?), the Grand Tonic - Grand Marnier and Tonic because the party was Grand, and old time classic Negroni.
Of course the catering of a party is as important as the good drinks. I can’t imagine a good party without a good catering and directly I ask Yoojis (who doesn't t love Yoojis ?!) to take care of it ! A great selections of their Sushi was one of the secrets of the party!
Its a week since the party and I still l have the memory of my friends enjoying everything that I was preparing for sooo long . OK, maybe the last days before the party I was a bit crazy and a bit stressed, but I wanted to be perfect, and I think it was! I can't wait to organise next year's Party….and please don’t forget that our life has to be a party!
PS. The Five Hotel Experience is coming next is stay tuned !
