Hosting an Apartment Warming Party
An apartment warming party is not a high-maintenance party, so do not feel as if the place has to be completely clean. You can even have unpacked boxes around. The focus is on the place itself and people may want to see that before it’s filled. Activities are not necessary, as the main event will be the tours. However, if you are trying to meet the neighbors, you might consider some icebreakers.
While the low-maintenance and activity-less agenda of the party might seem boring, there are a couple of creative things you may do. Grilling works great if you have access and the weather is good. If you have a rooftop open to tenants, maybe this will be your meeting/dining area before or after the formal tour. This makes for great mingling if the weather cooperates. To aid with the kitchen work, you may ask guests to bring a dish of their choice and throw a potluck.
The apartment warming is a great time to welcome old and new friends to your new place and fill up the empty space with new memories. Although they are customary and may be presented to you, don’t expect gifts. Be sure to open a bottle of champagne in your name. Toast up – cheers to you, your new place, and a new beginning.
