You’ve chosen a home, taken out a mortgage and signed on the dotted line. Now what? Well, a house warming party of course! The bash is the perfect opportunity to show off your new digs and let people know how happy you are. Since you’ll have likely put plenty of time and effort into making the move a success, you probably won’t feel like planning all the little details for a party. Therefore, just follow this handy guide and you should find that you’re on to a winner.
Set the date
You have one big decision to make – do you want the party sooner or later? If you hold the bash quickly, the excitement is usually fresher. However, if you opt to delay it you should find that you can spend more time preparing your new home ahead of the event. Either way, your gathering should still be special.
Send invitations
Putty Print’s invitations can be customised for that little extra touch. We even offer a range of house warming party invitations. Just remember to use your new address!
Tell your neighbours
House warming parties are a great opportunity to break the ice with your neighbours by inviting them along. If you’re not fond of this idea, it’s still important that you let your neighbours know that you’re having a party, just in case the noise creeps up. The last thing you want to do is annoy the people who you’ll be living next door to.
Prepare a playlist
It wouldn’t be a house warming party without ‘Our House’ by Madness on the soundtrack. Cramming your playlist with such songs is also a really fun activity.
Make it B.Y.O.B
There are those who think that ‘Bring Your Own Beer’ is a slightly cheeky suggestion. But since you’ll have no doubt forked out thousands for a house, stamp duty and solicitor fees, your guests will surely understand on this occasion.
Home sweet home!
If you’ve just found your dream home, you’ll understandably want to celebrate it. Start the party planning today by setting a date and ordering customised invitations from Putty Print. They’ll even be dispatched the same day, if ordered before 10am.
