It's that time of the year again! There's a nutty smell and a slight nip in the air. And only lights as far as the eyes can see. So if it's your turn to host a Diwali party at home - here are some great tried and tested ways to be the best hosts in town.
1. Decorate Your House
Take some time out of your busy schedule and go out shopping with your partner for cute Diwali decor that will not only make your house look pretty for Diwali but also get your guests into a festive mood from the moment they enter your home.
2. Stick to Indian Delicacies
While a mixed cuisine is great for any other party. When it comes to Diwali, traditional ALWAYS wins. So get that family recipe book out and cook up an Indian storm with your partner in your kitchen. It will be fun making your friends guess who made what.
3. Create a Bollywood Playlist Together
Before going to bed tonight, discuss your favourite Bollywood festive numbers and select them into a combined playlist. If you're feeling extra festive, you can prepare a fun performance for your guests too!
4. Twin to Win!
Pre-decide the clothes you're going to be wearing at the party and match them with your partner. If you have enough time, maybe you can order similar prints online to create some twinning memories, this Diwali.
5. Co-write Notes for You Guests
No Diwali party is complete without heartfelt gifts. You can make your giveaways extra special by adding handwritten notes signed by your partner and you. This will not only make your guests feel good but also add charm to your companionship and remind you how important your relationship is to you and to your loved ones.
