Christmas Party 6: Christmas Movie Party #1
CHRISTMAS PARTY ACTIVITY:
Invite friends over for a casual relaxed evening of festive Christmas movie viewing. Everyone can lounge, enjoy snacks and beverages, and get into the holiday spirit.
Plan to show two movies. Begin the party early enough in the day to allow time for two feature films, as well as a half hour at the start of the party for socializing, and a half hour intermission between.
To make the party run more smoothly, announce the movies ahead of time. That way you and your guests don't sit around wasting time debating which movie to show. Guests should feel free to drop by for the movie they prefer to see, and leave if they aren't interested in the second film.
CHRISTMAS MOVIE PARTY DECORATIONS:
CHRISTMAS MOVIES:
Show holiday comedies for adults (such as Four Christmases, Love, Actually, Fred Claus, and Deck the Halls.
If guests are bringing their kids, present more family friendly fare, including Home Alone, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, and The Santa Clause.
Or go way traditional, showing It's a Wonderful Life or Miracle on 34th Street.
CHRISTMAS MOVIE PARTY APPETIZERS:
Serve finger foods, snacks, and things that are easy to eat. No need for entrees or a sit down dinner for this casual movie viewing night.
