The Secrets of a Successful Soiree
Life gets a bit dull sometimes - we understand that, but we refuse to settle for mundane or boring over here. We must combat it. How you ask? Diamonds and parties of course.
Selflessly, we conducted an experiment to derive the best possible way to throw a party in order to provide you with a blueprint. So that you too, might join us in our stand against boredom.
On September 26, we hosted the most magical happy hour in honor of Jenny Adams' (formerly mentioned as “General Jenny” if you have been keeping up with the blogs) new collection of classic jewelry with a lucky twist. Pause for a moment to talk about Sorte…
Sorte is pro party and pro living in the moment. With the holidays coming up, we challenge you to adopt these policies as well; to never settle for a couch weekend, but rather, push forth to greatness (party throwing and party going).
So without further ado, here is Susan Saffron’s personal guide to throwing the most successful soiree:
A lost art in my opinion… This is the first impression your party is getting. First impressions are crucial, your dad hammered this into your head since middle school. The same goes for your party. You must juggle attention-grabbing simultaneously with a sufficient amount of details – enticing yet informational. Is there a theme? An attire? Send your guests a Paperless Post, a text graphic, an invitation in the mail, or a carrier pigeon - we don't care just make it snazzy.
Indispensable to a party.
I would argue this is often the leading enticement of a party; what do you have to offer your guests? We need something to sip on or munch on after someone brings up politics or after we made that awkward comment. You can’t leave your guests hungry. Plus it's just another opportunity to showcase how coherent and cute your party plans are. We chose to give the people a tasteful menu of pizza and martinis.
There's nothing more uncomfortable than when, coincidentally, everyone’s conversations lull at the exact same moment - ringing an ear piercing silence through the room. Let's avoid this. Put a little nod in their heads and a gentle shake in their hips by curating a banger playlist. It needs to be a universal range of top tier music. Get your friends involved beforehand, build a shared playlist. Here’s what we had playing at our soiree.
In our specific scenario, this was very crucial. We needed to invite all of our crushes, of course. We didn’t care who the crush may be, whether it's your mom or your mailman, we just needed the right people in attendance. For the Sorte party, crushes were absolutely necessary because who is going to buy the little jewelry treat that you picked out? We ended up having some pretty familiar faces show up at Jenny’s party. You might not have as much luck, but here is our proof:
It's not a party without proof. We need everyone to KNOW that you just threw the most wonderful, triumphant, perfect party. You need to gather evidence. We certainly did:
So in conclusion, throw a party! Invite us! We know how to have a good time ;)
See you in the next blog but bye for now!
