Remember that variety is truly the spice of life! Don't be afraid to invite friends who are totally opposite from one another and from different eras of your life.
Creating a Facebook event or sending a group text message is impersonal. Websites such as Paperless Post offer seriously chic invitation options for your red carpet party!
Ask your guests to place their votes for winners of each category. After the awards show is over, whoever chooses correctly wins a bottle of booze!
Serve food inspired by the nominees! For example, for the 2015 Golden Globes, you could have designer chocolates à la The Grand Budapest Hotel, Wild trail mix or Instellar corn on the cob.
Black, white, metallic silver and gold will never go out of style. Create chic vignettes of Old Hollywood glam around your home. People will really notice all of the attention to detail!
An over-the-top floral centerpiece will impress your guests when they walk in the door and set the tone for a glamorous soireé!
Candles instantly create a swanky atsmosphere. They are inexpensive and can be purchased anywhere! Be sure to buy candlesticks, tea lights and votives that are different sizes but the same color wax.
Be sure to set your bar location on the opposite side of the room from the front so that guests do not bottleneck towards the main entrance.
Celebrity chef and restauranteur Wolfgang Puck is no stranger to the red carpet. His signature Kobe beef sliders are a favorite among A-list partygoers and also makes the perfect bite size apps!
2015 marks the return of punch! Lulu Powers, author and entertaining designer to many of Hollywood's elite recommends Rosé Regent Punch. "Think of it as having all the adult appeal of a craft cocktail minus the expense of hiring a bartender."
Rosé is a wonderful (less expensive) alternative to champagne. Assign five of your friends to bring two bottles of bubbly to your party. Rosé plus your punch bowl will ensure that your party doesn't run dry!
Glitterbomb cupcakes are a favorite among Young Hollywood. The buttery, sparkly red frosting not only tastes delicious, but will also add a pop of color and bling to your dessert table!
