Quick Tips for a Stress Free Holiday Party with Applebee’s Catering
Life is busy all year long, but the holiday hustle and bustle can be overwhelming at times. With all the shopping, decorating and party planning, things can get hectic. Here are a few quick tips to help make your holiday party stress free.
CATERING: I don’t always have the time to create a meal for party guests, so this year we decided to cater our holiday party. Why spend all the time in the kitchen when the work can be done for you? Order your meal from Applebee’s Catering. With more than 30 delicious menu items to order from, there’s something for everyone! Price and participation may vary so visit www.applebees.com/catering to find out if it’s available near you.
ORDER ONLINE: With my full time job, family and business, I rely heavily on online shopping. So when I found out that I can order a delicious meal for my parties with as little as 2 hours notice from Applebee’s, I knew I had to give it a try. Let me tell you, the whole process from start to finish was a cinch. I was even able to get curbside service when I picked up my order! You can also call or visit your local Applebee’s restaurant, or order online up to 14 days in advance. It’s a convenient way to feed a crowd without breaking the bank.
GO CASUAL: Holiday parties don’t have to be over the top to be fun. Casual parties are my personal favorite. And nothing is more casual than a nice spread of Buffalo Wings and BBQ Riblets!
It’s no joke when I say that my family has a hearty appetite and I was able to feed party of six or more for less than $10 a person. And we had plenty of leftovers for later! Our meal stayed fresh and warm with Applebee’s packaging. It’s heat resistant to ensure your food can go from the restaurant to your party without losing any flavor. We also were given plenty of Ranch Dressing and BBQ Sauce which was a huge plus!
DECORATIONS: Deck your halls with your stash of Holiday decor. You can easily dress up a side table with a few Christmas Trees, a DIY Christmas Sign and holiday florals. You can even hang Christmas lights with your curtains for a cozy ambiance.
LIGHTING: Lighting is often a forgotten detail at parties. Turn on your Christmas Tree lights for added coziness. It also makes a pretty backdrop in the dining space!
TABLE SETTINGS: Dress up your table with coordinating chargers, napkins and a table runner. Collect items from around your house to create an inviting centerpiece.
DINNERWARE: Combine metallic plastic cutlery and glasses with your regular dinnerware to keep dishes to a minimum. Plates can be put in the dishwasher for super easy clean up.
ENJOY YOURSELF: There’s nothing worse than the energy from a stressed host or hostess. Don’t forget to sit back and enjoy good food with family and friends. The hard work has been done for you, now it’s time to create memories!
I hope you give these Quick Tips for a Stress Free Holiday Entertaining a try, and don’t forget to check out all the delicious menu items at Applebee’s for your catering needs!
Merry Christmas!
