TIP 3: "To add that extra-
special touch, you can print
personalized menus for each
guest. If you print their names

a keepsake."
Take Your Party to the Next Level
Looking to throw the holiday bash that will make your friends Grinch-green with envy?
Soha Lavin of CountDown Events, one of the city's premier party planners, shows you
how to set the stage for a fantastically upscale and festive party
TIP 1: "Lighting is an essen-
tial element for creating the
perfect ambiance. Use layered
candle light at different heights
across your tablescape."
TIP 2: "This year's hottest
colour combinations are gold,
white and silver. Add earthy
natural elements like silver
berries and dusty miller leaves
mixed with metallic and lime."
"Delighting your guests' senses
will leave a lasting impression, and
each detail can be an opportunity
to set the mood and add something
special to your festive party"
