Permission to binge-watch: Have you watched all the Oscar-nominated movies yet?
Festively and our network of talented event vendors was asked by Rent.com to share creative tips for throwing an Oscars viewing party at home. Check out the full feature below.
We shared ideas from food to drinks to decor and featured some wonderful Festively vendors. Here are our tips to make your Oscars Viewing party extra festive!
- Champagne is the drink of the evening, so why not make it part of your decor! Incorporate lots of gold throughout the space, including a gold-toned floral arrangement, like this one from @dakota_flowers.
Dress up your normally plain walls with black and gold fringe curtains, cut to size for a festive and glitzy look.
Custom cookies are a must-have, like these gorgeous ones from @cali_cookie_co. Keep the rest of the food simple with lots of grazing options like a fabulous charcuterie board from @korverfarms and traditional movie snacks like popcorn, licorice, and chocolate.
Download an Oscars party award ballot from Etsy. Invite people over early so they can start filling out their ballot, comment on all the gowns on the red carpet, and get their drink on. Have a few prizes ready for the winners.
Ask guests to wear something representing their favorite movie.
The best Oscars after-parties are catered by Wolfgang puck. Order a pizza from Wolfgang’s protege’s restaurant California Pizza Kitchen for the next best thing!
Take a shot when… have a gorgeous shot station ready for the drinking game you create for the night. Here are a few ideas:
- Take a sip if the music starts playing during someone’s speech.
- Take a shot whenever someone takes out their glasses to read their speech
- Take a drink every time they show the Hollywood sign
