Homewarming parties...?
my boyfriend and i are planning on having a home warming party for our apartment, ( we just moved intogether) should i invite his family together with my family and our friends, or should i make family, then friends, or his family, my family, and friends and have 3 parties? what do you think? oh and family included grandparents.
Answers:
have one big party, invite everyone make sure you have a registry.
Have one BIG party. chances are the family will get there early and leave early. Make sure you register at a store that is convenient to everyone.
If you are planning on having a good time with your friends such as drinking a little, and your families don't really care to see you drinking then I would throw a friend party separate from a family party
As long as your family and his family gets along just have a big family party, but if there are some problems (which some families have) you maight consider doing the family thing separately also
If everyone drinks and has a good time together then bring on the BIG party... Include everyone
Hope this helps you out and Congrats on moving in together
You live in an apartment so it might not be practical to have everybody over at once.
Make a list of everybody that you would like to invite and then decide how many people you can comfortably fit in you home at once. This should help you decide if you need more than one party.
have one party for family and friends.......all should share in your excitement!
Generally, housewarming parties are for those who just purchased a new home. If you just moved in together but it was already his apartment (or yours), it's not proper to have a housewarming party.
First of all I wouldn't have moved in with him unless I had a ring on my finger. You are just his live in maid. If he loves you, he should get married to you. I don't like the idea of "living together" not because it's a sin or anything like that, but because the guy can take advantage. Why buy the cow if you get the milk for free? Men don't generally commit to marry when you live with them. Don't let yourself be used, or lose your identity to this guy.
You should start with your parents only(his included). It is important to have immediate family before friends. Then you can have a party for friends. The last one could be for all family that would like to see your new place. Have a fancy dinner for the parents. It should soften them up when they became angry about you living together before marriage. Good Luck and Best Wishes!!!!!!!!!!!
