We know what you might be thinking. A holiday hot tub party, is that even a thing? As long as you have your own hot tub, such as a Caldera® spa from by Fronheiser, you can throw a holiday hot tub party in no time. We will guide you through some essential steps to throw your own holiday hot tub party, whether the invitees are just your closest family members or neighbors and friends as well.
Part I: Planning Your Holiday Hot Tub Party
This might seem like the most stressful part of hosting a hot tub party, but it is the first step you need to take in order to make your party a success. Even if you’re not normally a “planning type” of person, you should still plan some things in advance.Guests for Your Hot Tub Party
First, how many people you plan to invite? If it’s only your family or a handful of people, it might be easier to use the hot tub all at once. If you invite more people, though, you might need to take turns in order for everyone to be able to enjoy the hot tub. Therefore, the number of guests is something you need to consider, as well as what people could do to be entertained while waiting for their turn to relax in the hot tub.Hot Tub Friendly Food
Another thing to consider, as with any party, is the food. Is it going to be dinner before or after you and the guests get your hot tub soak in? Will there be simple entrees and finger foods that people can help themselves to as they go back and forth from the hot tub? If it’s a larger party with people taking turns, they could also enjoy snacks in between. Planning well can make your guests feel right at home.Cozy Decorations
One of the most important preparations for any party is the decorations. There are always so many options — fairy lights, candles, intricate China, flowers, balloons, and more. This once again depends on the host’s preferences, as well as if there will be a theme for the party, and how many guests are invited. If it’s a more intimate or family get-together, simpler and cozier decorations could suffice. But if it’s a larger party, there might be a need for more decorations, or even board games and music, among other mood-setters.
