IYO, what makes a good Holiday Party?

What makes you walk away from an evening feeling like you had a great time?

Well in our family it would be the games. We are big game people, charades is a huge hit with us, so give us some good food and games and for the most part we are all happy. Now for me there are things that i like to do in prep that i wouldnt be happy about like the decorations and that "holiday feeling"

Good food and good company.  I like going to a holiday party where people are there to have a good time and mingle.  Maybe a cheesy game or two to get people interacting. 

If there's dancing, a good up to date music selection.  My husband's holida work party is awesome with good food, good company (and good bar), but the music for dancing is out dated and boring.  They encourage people to dance and have a good time, but the music is horrible.  Hopefully they get the hint this year and make it better.

The fellowship for sure, followed by good food, good wine, and good music.

The BEST memories I have are of us all sitting around a table/on a patio/in a living room, full from a great meal, sipping wine, listening to jazz, and laughing together.

The people at the party. No matter what kind of food or music or games or booze you have if the people are all party poopers, you are going to have a bad time. If the people are fun, you will have a good time even with no food, music, booze or food.

The most important part of any party is the guest list. After that, nothing else matters.

Oh, and please don't play beer pong if you're older than 25.
