Unsurprisingly, when people come over, their first impressions will affect how they feel for the duration of their stay. Impeccable presentation of self, beautiful decorations and luxe amenities make for the best first impressions. Putting careful thought into your outfit is about much more than vanity; you want your outfit to express that you care about your guests’ attendance and have taken extra care of yourself for the special occasion. Beautiful home decorations are not only good conversation starters but also demonstrate that you, the host, have worldly taste. Lastly, luxe amenities make your guests comfortable in a foreign environment and show that you have addressed all concerns before they even arise.

I would also suggest gifting your guests with a small memento to remember the event by. Here, we’ve compiled all the things you need to throw the most lavish, swinging-from-the-chandelier type parties as well as to throw the most intimate of gatherings for your closest friends. Cin cin!
