Build Your Home Cocktail Party Spot with Broward Contractor

Do you have a nice area in your home that’s completely bare? Maybe you’re thinking of doing something cool with some extra space, such as making it the perfect party spot for your family and friends. You might be gearing up your home to host your next big event when the spring and summertime hits. Wouldn’t it be nice to enjoy the weather while sitting back with a few nice libations in hand? Broward Contractor is up for the task.

Offers Great Home Remodeling
Let’s be honest. Home remodeling can get very expensive. Sure, you may be tempted to DIY your home, but each mistake adds another cost that could’ve been avoided with a professional on the job. Broward Contractor has provided expert service for decades.
They’re affordable and hard-working. You won’t have to spend an arm and leg getting a quality job done to your home. They take time and use quality materials to ensure that any place you renovate has a grade ‘A’ look to it.

Room Addition
You might be thinking about adding a cool cocktail room to your home. You have a lot of space that’s just waiting to be occupied. However, you might be unaware of different building-applications you need to adhere to before you decide to create an additional room. Before you take that first drink in your space, give Broward Contractor a call.

They not only take the right measures to ensure your room is up to code, but they’ll help in the designing and planning process to make sure everything goes accordingly. You won’t have to buy a new home or use a guesthouse when you can make the most of your space.

Quality Floor Installation
Maybe you’re thinking of a wood floor. This way, it’ll be easy to clean up stains. You won’t have to worry about an accidental spill because it’s not a carpeted floor. Also, it’ll make for a nice dance area while you and your friends enjoy a great party right at home. The staff has a lot of training and can build the right flooring to complement the motif you desire for the room. Maybe you have a deadline, such as getting the floor done before your husband’s 40th birthday. Their professionals work with you to meet specific daily goals. This is the type of organization needed to get the job done.

Getting the Right Lighting
You need the finishing touch to your new room addition. They offer solid interior light installation. Maybe you want to enjoy a room where you add some LED lighting to make it a nice evening event. Also, it could be a good way to save money because you can set a sensor on them when someone’s in the room. The right lighting gives the area a certain aura that’ll add more depth to your events.

Just imagine staying in and bringing the party to you. Start thinking of the possibilities of your place and make it somewhere your loved ones can let their hair down.

Hosting the Perfect Soiree with Friends

A soiree is a small, intimate gathering of friends, the perfect way to celebrate everything from friendship to birthdays. You don’t need an excuse to enjoy quality time with people you care about but when it comes to hosting a successful soiree, what do you need to consider?

Keep it small


The ideal size for this kind of dinner party is between six and eight guests. With a larger group, you’ll find yourself simply catering rather than enjoying the company of guests and the great food on offer.

In smaller groups, big personalities can take over so make sure you seat your dinner guests in a way that allows conversation to flow but stops small groups from ‘breaking away’. For example, seat people who have larger-than-life personalities in the centre of the table. This way, they’ll extend their conversation to people on either side of them.

Simple menu

Don’t overthink your soiree menu. If fact, you can ditch several courses in favour of one main course, followed by desserts and sweet treats that allow people to dip in and out, as and when the conversation ebbs and flows.

Include a range of enticing dishes including chocolate candy with coffee, as well as cheese and fruit.

Anticipate your guests’ needs

Every successful soiree or party is defined as one where the needs and expectations of the guests were met. The sign of a good host is one that can second-guess or predict what their guests will want.

For example, if you are enjoying an intimate dinner party outdoors, provide sumptuous blankets for your guests to wrap themselves up in. Or, if enjoying an informal soiree in front of a roaring fire, cosy slippers or throws will work just as well.

Pull out all the stops

Unlike a more formal dinner party, the soiree is a more relaxed affair but what does that really mean? It means serving a classic menu with elegant dishes, it means several dishes served at the same time without the formality or awkwardness of working out which set of cutlery to use.

Pulling out all the stops doesn’t mean making things overly complicated. A posy of fresh flowers on the table, pretty china plates and cups, linen napkins and vintage glasses will all look spectacular.

Think about the small things and get organised before your party. For example, make such there are fresh towels in the bathroom and welcoming cocktails for guests.

Make it all about people, memories and fun

A soiree is the stuff of memories. It is the meeting of friends where you will laugh and commiserate, sharing stories of times gone past. Life is so full and busy, finding time can be hard.

But when you can all find the time, a soiree is perfect. It is informal and comforting. If the chicken is a little overcooked or the wine is not as tasty as you thought it would be or a cocktail glass is broken, what does it matter?
