If you're thinking this is just the ticket for this weekend, here are a few tips to ensure you and your guests have an unforgettable time.
This how-to video from Bon Appetit covers all the essentials - from music to food prep - so take note, my friends.
And if cooking really isn’t your strong suit, how about asking everyone to bring a dish to take the pressure off?
A good cheese and charcuterie board is super-easy to throw together (it can be done the night before), and is the perfect accompaniment to good conversation and a beautiful glass of wine.
Overall, preparation is key.
Make sure space is cleared, glassware is ready and music is curated before your guests arrive. Then you can focus on the truly important stuff - like enjoying the night!
