Here are some other great ideas to get you started on your vacation party planning.

In a way, the vacations are all about tradition. You and your family may have some favourite recipes you’d like to cook, or perhaps a trip to a tree farm or pumpkin patch. But just as any vacation is about tradition, many have an insatiable urge to overpower themselves and try something new, to upstage previous years’ celebrations and make this vacation season the most memorable yet.

How can you outsmart yourself this vacation season? The answer is straightforward: Think big. Don’t be limited to the party supplies you have lying around your house; stretch and rent equipment similar to what professional party planners use. RentalHQ can connect you to the nearest rental store and help your party stand out from the usual traditional get-togethers.

Serve your food the right way.

Preparing vacation meals is difficult work, but even for small gatherings, making sure that delicious food is kept hot and served at optimal temperatures can be a real challenge. Hiring chafing dishes for main courses and hors d’oeuvres can make sure that your food stays the right temperature and taste and that the masterpieces you cook taste better than ever.

Add smoke, snow or bubbles.

Whether you want to bring snow to a Christmas party or cool smoke and fog effects to ring in the new year, renting a snow or smoke machine can create a party atmosphere like no other.

Drink in style.

To throw a really extraordinary vacation party, there are a few must-have items. At the top of many people’s lists is the full service bar. If you do not have a built-in bar at home or at your party venue, you are in luck. Why? Because you’ll have more options to pick from when you decide to rent one. Whether it is a lit bar, a modernist style, or a classic rock design, hiring a portable bar that fits your party is key.

Fountain of delicacy.

To really go all out, you need to think bigger. You need to plan as if you were throwing a top celebrity party. Renting a champagne or chocolate fountain is a sure way to go. The perfect blend of luxury and delicacy, the fountain will have guests talking of tumbling towers of molten chocolate or bubbling champagne for years to come.

Focus on details.

For many vacation get-togethers, it is all about having the right plates and serving utensils. For a reasonable price, you can easily rent fine china and delightful glassware that will amaze your guests. Best of all, you do not have to spend a fortune on items you only use a few times a year!
