Tips for Entertaining

Start by setting the mood.  Create a warm and inviting atmosphere by focusing on using lamps or dimmable lights instead of overhead lighting.  If the weather is cool, light a cozy fire.  Small details like fresh flowers and scented candles will help to welcome your guests and make the time spent together feel special.  Choose a playlist that you think your guests will love.

Don’t be afraid to rearrange furniture or bring in additional seating to help your guests feel more comfortable.

If you have an outdoor space or patio, use it to extend your entertaining space and give your guests a place to get some fresh air or let little ones get some energy out.

Wine and Dine

Set up self serve stations for food and drinks to encourage your guests to mingle and help themselves.  This will also help them to feel at home in your new home.  You may even have some asking about other homes for sale Abbottstown, PA so they can be your neighbor.

Don’t overcomplicate your menu.  A spread of delicious appetizers (homemade or not) will keep your guests happy and satisfied.  Or if the weather is nice, fire up the grill and serve burgers and hotdogs – a classic that everyone will love.
