Crafting the Perfect Friendsmas

While many of us look forward to traditional family gatherings, a growing trend adds a dash of merriment to the festivities – Friendsmas. This celebration brings together friends to create unforgettable memories and share the holiday spirit.

Deck the Halls with Delightful Decor:

We advocate for romanticising your life, and getting festive is no different. Transform your space into an SA summer sanctuary with sizzling decorations. Get personalised ornaments, garlands, and centrepieces. This adds a unique and memorable touch to your celebration. Check out LeAnne's Christmas table ideas for some beautiful inspo. Set the tone of the evening with the ultimate music playlist (you know it has to include Maria's Christmas album).

Themed Attire for Extra Festivity:

You know we love a theme for any LDH event sisterhood. Your Friendsmas should be no different. Encourage your friends to don their most festive attire by choosing a theme for the evening. From a colour theme to an elegant evening, having a dress code adds excitement to the event and ensures plenty of Instagram-worthy moments.

Friendsmas Feast Extravaganza:

Food is central to any celebration, and Friendsmas is no exception. Yes, you can have the evening fully catered for and split the cost, or if cooking is your catharsis, then get going, chef. Or, ease the hosting responsibilities and plan a beautiful menu that every friend contributes to.

Cheerful Games and Activities:

Inject some friendly competition into the celebration with holiday-themed games and activities. From festive charades to a white elephant gift exchange, choose activities that cater to your group's preferences.

Capture the Moments:

Document the joy and camaraderie of Friendsmas by setting up a photo booth with festive props. Encourage your friends to take silly, heartwarming pictures that serve as cherished mementoes. 

Gifts that Keep on Giving:

Consider organising a Secret Santa or a gift exchange to add an element of surprise and generosity to Friendsmas. Set a budget and encourage thoughtful, personalised gifts that reflect your friendship. There is so much joy in giving.

By focusing on the joy of togetherness, you'll create a Friendsmas tradition with your friends eagerly anticipating the festivities year after year.
