How to Plan a Menu for a Jewelry Party


Reserve time at the end of the showing and a special place for socializing and snacks. In providing a separate area for gathering, the potential for dropping crumbs or spilling drinks on the jewelry is minimized.
Choose a menu with food that is easy to prepare. Jewelry parties should be fun, not burdensome. Most guests are satisfied with something to drink and a light snack.
Consider putting regular and decaf coffee and hot or iced tea on the menu at your jewelry party. Include flavored creamers. Hot chocolate is a great option during cold-weather months.
Choose an assortment of Danish, muffins and scones or other pastries for a late-morning or early-afternoon party.
Find fresh fruit in season for a delectable treat. Serve alongside cheese and crackers.
Plan a menu with bagels and an assortment of flavored and low-fat cream cheese.
Make use of limited table space for snacks by creating an edible centerpiece, such as a fruit or vegetable centerpiece. Serve with your favorite fruit or vegetable dip, such as a caramel dip for apple slices or a ranch dip for crunchy veggies.

How to Word a Lunch Party Invitation (6 Steps)


Place a heading to announce the lunch party at the top of the invitation. Set the theme and show guests the reason for the gathering right away. For example, if you are hosting a patio luncheon, your heading might say, 'Gather with us amongst the spring blossoms for a light luncheon.' If you are hosting a family reunion and serving a lunch meal, your heading might say, 'Please join us for a family reunion luncheon.'
Skip one or two lines.
Add the date and the time of the lunch on the next line. If your luncheon has a definite ending time, include this time also.
Place the location where you will hold the lunch on the next line.
Give other pertinent party information to your guests on the next lines. If you want specific attire, specify by writing, 'Summer casual attire' or 'Formal afternoon attire.' If you want to avoid gifts, write, 'No gifts, please.' If you expect your guests to bring a dish to pass or beverages, write, 'Please bring a salad to pass' or 'Please bring your own beverages.'
Request an RSVP from your guests by adding, 'RSVP requested,' and then provide your telephone number or email address to receive the RSVPs.
