Progressive Dinner Party
Does anyone do this anymore? I was thinking about hosting a "Honeymoon's Not Over" or "The Honeymoon is Over" party with some of our newlywed (and not so newlywed) friends. Was thinking to incorporate themes/food/entertainment from each of our honeymoon locations (Hawaii, San Fran, Jamaica, etc.) and thought perhaps each couple could each host a portion with their theme. Wanted to bounce it off here first. Or we could just incorp them all at our house.....
Re: Progressive Dinner Party
We do this in my neighborhood, and also in my previous home, an apartment building. They are really fun. I agree that having everyone within walking distance is a big plus. Also, we keep it to three - appetizer, main dish, dessert, I think anything more becomes unwieldy. You could keep your theme but simplify the rest.
A progressive dinner sounds like fun - I like the idea that people all contribute to the party.
If you do go with the honeymoon theme, just make sure that everyone went on a honeymoon. We never did - we couldn't afford it at the time, it was really hard to have people make a big deal about this. If I was invited to this party, I really wouldn't want to explain that we didn't go on a honeymoon.
Progressive dinners (in terms of physically going to each other's houses) if the participants live very close to each other - walking distance is probably best or if you all live in a condo/apartment building.
Otherwise, you can have each couple be responsible for a portion of the meal, potluck style, which can be hosted in one spot.
I love the honeymoon locations as a theme!
