Winter parties provide so many options for creative decorating ideas, interesting party rentals , and yummy food. If you need some inspiration for your next winter-themed party, continue reading below.
Crystal Décor
Crystal chandeliers and candelabras are just a couple of decorations that can add to your winter-themed party. Whether the crystal hangs down in delicate dewdrops or commands attentions in large stars and snowflakes, this type of décor will have your guests thinking of clear and beautiful icicles.
Fluffy White Flowers
If there is no snow to be found outside, then bring it inside with the help of white, silk flowers. Your centerpieces can hold a fluffy bouquet of carnations, gardenias, or another full-looking flower. Your guests will love this simple reminder of a snow-white winter.
Cabin Features
If winter means heading to a ski lodge or visiting a cabin in the mountains, make woodsy features a part of your party equipment. You can use log slices as centerpieces or rent plaid-decorated table linens. There are several different options to use when you want to recreate a rustic winter experience in the mountains.
Wintry Foods
You can further impress your guests with various types of wintry foods. Set up a s’more-making station for guests to enjoy a warm dessert. Make popular soups and stews part of your catering menu, and don’t forget to serve some piping hot drinks like hot chocolate.
Cool Winter Colors
When considering the different colors to use, you do not have to stick to the classic red and green that typically accompany winter and holiday parties. Silver, metallic blue, gold, and purple are other popular winter colors to outfit your party.

Ideas for Coordinating Your Linens with Your Party Decorations
Part of pulling off a memorable event comes from your decorations. Your guests will remember the food and friends, but they must also be amazed as soon as they walk in the door. That instant amazement can only happen with gorgeous decorations and coordinated table linens. Here are some ideas to help you coordinate your party decorations with your various table linens.
- Simple matching of colors is an easy way to coordinate your linens and décor. If you have a prominent decorating color, then pick a table runner in a matching color or the larger table linen in a complementary color.
- Look at different textures available in your table linen rentals. Linens can come with crinkled fabric to create an interesting effect, or you may prefer a classy pin tuck texture.
- Consider using a printed linen to match your decorations. If you are hosting a picnic event, then a checkered linen will look best. You may also appreciate a lace overlay, if your event is considered formal.

Ideas for Keeping Children Entertained at Your Wedding
If you choose to invite the children of your family and friends to your wedding, help take some of the load off their parents. Keep the children entertained with various party supplies and games that may also give your adult invitees something to do. Let’s look at some great ideas to entertain the children attending your wedding.
Rent Various Games
Certain party rentals and birthday games do not have to be used only at birthday parties and outdoor barbecues. There are many games that can be rented or bought to entertain the children who attend your wedding . Carnival games, like bean toss and pin the tail on the donkey, are popular games even some adults might enjoy. You can also bring simple and transportable games like board games or playing cards.
Consider a Bouncy House
If your wedding is located outside, consider renting a bouncy house or area that can be set up nearby. Bouncy houses are enjoyable to children and adults alike, so consider making adult-participation optional. It is courteous to inform your guests of this active entertainment ahead of time; parents may prefer to dress their children in something more appropriate for jumping and bouncing.
Create a Scavenger Hunt
Children love scavenger and treasure hunts, so take some extra time to create a scavenger hunt for your younger guests. Depending on how many children are coming, and their ages, the hunt can be for individuals or for teams. Instead of requiring the children to get a physical item, make the scavenging list about finding people with specific traits and answers—such as a guest with blue eyes or a guest who has known the bride for a certain number of years.
