Tips for your 31st birthday party

The 31st! For some of us, it's a date of great expectation. It has to be THE party of the year, it has to be a special night, and so on. For all those who want to celebrate the New Year with their nearest and dearest, we've selected a few products that can help with the organisation.

An end-of-year party at home can turn into a great evening if you think ahead about how to organise it. Will the evening be rather calm and quiet, will it have a theme, or will it be crazy? Once the decision has been made, all that's missing are the friends and the good humour and the evening looks set to be a success, doesn't it?

Tips for the basic programme

  • Decoration adds a festive atmosphere. Personally, I find the combination of black and gold very beautiful.
  • Music should of course not be missing, regardless of whether you want a calm or more danceable atmosphere throughout the evening. The best thing to do is to ask, right from the invitation, what song makes your guests dance.
  • Anyone who loves the classics can always watch Dinner for One for the fiftieth time. For it, like fireworks, is part of New Year's Eve.
  • Prepare a small selection of the best photos of 2015 and rekindle fond memories with your guests.
  • Make bets on who will or won't keep their resolutions for 2016.

5pm: let the preparation begin!

Depending on personal taste or chosen theme, different styles of decoration are appreciated.

7:45pm: the last meal of the year

Fondue and raclette aren't 31st birthday classics for nothing. The food is directly on the table and guests and host can eat quietly together. With a table-top grill, each person can cook their meat as they like, and the host, doesn't have to feel bad if it's over or undercooked.
