**5 Hot Tips from The Vintage Bar Co. for Hosting a Stress-Free Party at Home**
Whether it’s your housewarming, engagement party, or birthday bash, hosting an event at home can be a bit overwhelming. But don't worry! The party professionals at **The Vintage Bar Co.** are here with 5 tips to ensure your next party goes down as smoothly as a perfectly mixed cocktail.
### 1. **First We Eat, Then We Do Everything Else**
It may seem obvious, but ensuring your guests have food is an obligation you can't ignore. Whether you order pizza, cater, or leave it to professionals, timing is everything. The **BIGGEST mistake** we see? Serving food too late. Stomachs full of alcohol but empty of substantial food make for a messy situation. Avoid this by feeding your guests before the drinks start flowing. The trick: dine, then wine!
### 2. **Clues for Your Booze**
Now that your guests are fed, let’s get to the most important part: the drinks! If you’re handling the bar yourself, you'll need to consider many things: a bar setup, bartenders, fridges, ice, glassware, water, mixers, bar equipment, and more. That's where The Vintage Bar Co. comes in!
We take care of all the logistics, so you can relax and enjoy the party. Our vintage bars deliver cocktails, beers, and soft drinks to your guests with style and ease. Plus, we’re BYO-friendly, so you can save on costs while still giving your guests a premium bar experience. We also offer beautifully crafted beverage barrels for intimate gatherings, allowing your guests to help themselves to perfectly poured beer or cocktails from self-service taps. Say goodbye to the stress of managing the bar—let us handle it for you!
### 3. **Let the Music Play**
If you’ve hired a DJ or live band, skip ahead to the next tip. But if you’re curating your own playlists, we've got some advice to keep the good vibes going.
Create multiple playlists with different moods to match the progression of the evening. A collaborative playlist is a great idea, too—this way, your friends can contribute ahead of time, ensuring a mix everyone will enjoy. On the day, set a passcode on your phone to keep the playlist under control, so that only your trusted crew can skip tracks. Sorry Steve, no Beatles classics at peak party time!
### 4. **Can the Rubbish**
Trash logistics are hardly the most exciting part of party planning, which is why they’re often overlooked. One simple way to reduce your party's waste (and your next-day cleanup) is to opt for drinks on tap. The Vintage Bar Co. excels at providing tap beer and craft cocktails, which significantly reduces waste from bottles and cans. If you’re going the DIY route, choose cans over bottles—they can be crushed for easy disposal, and they won’t shatter if dropped.
### 5. **Sound the Alarm**
A little heads-up goes a long way. Let your neighbors know you’re hosting a party to avoid noise complaints. The last thing you want is for the police to crash your party because your neighbors weren’t prepared for the noise. A quick note in their letterbox can help keep the peace and ensure your party stays lively until the end.
