How to plan the cutest + festive holiday wrapping party

November 29, 2018



Have you ever attended or planned a holiday wrapping party? They're a great excuse to gather with friends over food and drinks, while you all wrap your Christmas gifts together! Sounds easy enough, right? It totally is! 

Last year I created this super festive holiday party that included sparkly sips! Are you so excited to gather with friends and celebrate the holiday season?! Speaking of holiday parties and beverages, smartwater sparkling was my go-to beverage for my annual holiday wrap party!

Follow along as I share my easy tips and inspiration for throwing your own Holiday wrap party! I'll also share a couple ways to make your smartwater sparkling festive and fun! smartwater is the perfect blend of bubbles. I'll share how our festive sips paired so nicely with our cucumber bruschetta and a tasty cheeseboard!

As you start the party planning process, I find that it runs more smoothly when you have a theme or color palette in mind. This year I went with colors of pink, aqua and fun touches of black and white stripes. It's not your typical holiday color choice, but that's ok! I have some fabulous girlfriends and I just knew they would enjoy the fun twist to our gift wrapping this year!



Next, gather your supplies: you'll need tape, scissors, ribbons, tags and an assortment of wrapping paper. You can also provide boxes and gift bags.

While you and your guests are wrapping, have your snacks and smartwater sparkling close by! I always seem to work up an appetite while I wrap.



I like to have a couple garnishes available for my party sips. Fresh mint leaves and cherries go perfectly with bubbles! Set out some fun drinking glasses and coordinating paper straws and your party guests will say sip sip hooray!





Are you ready to start planning your next holiday party?! You should definitely add smartwater sparkling to your shopping list! I picked up a couple liters from my local Vons store. They were easy to find in the store's water aisle. 

Do you love a good cheeseboard? Me too! I love to graze, especially at parties. Here are my easy steps for putting together a simple cheeseboard with items that are ready to go! 




Find a tray or board that you would like to display your food. I found a nice sized wooden board that is perfect for a small cheeseboard assortment. 



Add your meats, cheese(s), etc. I also like to throw a couple of my favorites on there: garlic stuffed olives and Prosciutto! Finish it off with some crispy crackers and juicy grapes. Yum! It's not only filling but it pairs perfectly with smartwater sparkling!



If you want to have a great time with friends and get some holiday necessities out of the way, a sparkling holiday wrap party would be the perfect way to enjoy some holiday cheer!
