How to Plan the best Christmas in July Party
If you want to do anything good, you gotta have a plan. And here are some tips that'll help you host the best Christmas in July party.
- Theme - A theme will be the foundation for your Christmas Party. You can base your entire Christmas in July Party around that theme. You can go with a Beach Theme or a Santa's Workshop theme or Christmas in July Pool Party theme.
- Decorations - The decorations for your Christmas in July Party is somewhat similar to your regular Christmas decorations just a little different. Think what would you do if it was actually Christmas and it was snowing outside. Now, put a summer spin on. Think of melted snowman decorations or instead of a snow fight you can use water balloons that look like snow. You can go for beach lighting.
- Food and Drinks - If it was a typical Christmas party what would you be serving? Hot chocolate or Eggnog or Snowman Cookies? Now put a summer twist to it. Instead of Hot Chocolate you can serve cold coffee. Instead of Eggnog you can make a Boozy watermelon drink or a Watermelon Mint Cooler. And, instead of snowman cookies you can make melted snowman cookies. Instead of a Christmas Ham or Turkey you'd be putting a summer twist to them and making grilled recipes.
- Christmas Games - If you played snow-fight when it was snowing in winters, now you can play water-balloon fight. If you had a competition of who would make the snowman first, you can put a summer-twist to that and make it a competition about whose snowman would melt first. Instead of a snowman you can make a Sandman on the beach.
