Lisa, I’ve been following you since I was 25, I’m now 35. THIS is the content that people need when it’s time to grow with the content creator. Peace and blessings to you.
Awe, thank you so much!! I appreciate you staying with me this long! 🥰😘
I agree with you! So many creators just morphe into the same lane eventually.because they are afraid to stay true to themselves and continue growing with us. They eventually become unrelatable.....
I set the table 2 days in advance and I gently drape a tablecloth on top & remove right before the guests arrive. Learned this trick when we had a beautiful fluffy Golden Retriever living with us for 9 years!!
Wonderful idea!!! Thank you!! 🥰😘😘
Great tip! I might pinch that this xmas 🎄 xx
I felt like I passed an exam lol I actually do all of your tips!! My hubby has 13 uncles and aunts and plus the cousins, we host both the 24h and the 25th of December. I'm already right now prepping stuff as I feel that certain items disappear off the shelves at the grocery stores (cranberry sauce, pineapple pieces etc), I have already starter baking the sugary treats and put them in the freezer, I already bought the alcohol. His family loves our parties, even the plus ones say "I've heard about how amazing and fun your Christmas dinner and parties are" 😄
Hey Vero!! Wow, that would definitely stress me out, I’m impressed! I’ll bet you make everyone feel special, too! 🥰😘
I completely agree with all these tips. After years of entertaining, these are exactly the things that will make everything easier. Getting ready early, huge tip! I was never ready on time when I waited. Great advice.
Hi Lisa, just wanted to let you know that it I enjoy all of your videos and most especially seeing your home and how you decorate. One of my very favorite things about you is that you always greet your animals when they come in the room! I do the same thing. You are so loving to them and to everyone. That’s getting harder to find anymore and I appreciate the fact that you’re being a good example of how we should treat others. ❤️❤️
Absolutely super advice!! Sometimes I dread going to people's parties because I know I will have to clean up. I wish everyone could watch this. Thank you!
Lisa I've been watching you for years and honestly I didn't know you enjoyed or even had dinner parties to have tips about! No doubt you're social, Very good video!
The best party that I hosted was an Open House, when I bought my new home. When I bought my home, the home builder had a cleaning lady to do a make ready before I actually moved in. I got to meet her and started using her on a scheduled day to come clean my home.. When I started planning my Open House, I asked her if she ever did parties. She said yes. She came early that morning of the party, cleaned my home, then went into the bathroom to freshen up and changed clothes into black pants and blouse with a white apron. She then kept the food trays filled and cleaned the kitchen as needed. When all had left, my kitchen was spotless with all dishes cleaned. This left me to be free to visit with all the guests! The only way to go, in my book!
At the age of 67 I’ve had many types of dinner parties and cocktail parties and m biggest regret was the stress. I now don’t stress and just try to make everyone feel welcome. I think all the things you have mentioned are great advice. Few people will notice your woodwork, etc. Most folks are there to have a good time and enjoy the company.
Love all your tips Lisa ; few years ago my husband took my girls to the park on thanksgiving around 4 pm ; I had like 60 ppl ; and meet these family at the park invite them for dinner; I was ready to divorced him or kill him; I didn’t have sitting for them; and my husband told me maybe they won’t come , they were the first one at my door; I try my best to make them welcome we ate we talk we laughed I took pictures of everyone; ; the following month the guy got diagnosed with a massive brain tumor and he die like 2 weeks later ; I printed the pictures I took that dinner the wife crying and grieving told me thank you thank you for making us feel so good at your house and those pictures were that most recent pictures of him ; you never know ; I felt so bad how angry I got to my husband for inviting them few hours before dinner; we become close friends with the entire family who never going to forget that thanksgiving and my house 🙏
My New Orleans grandmother always said, "Imperfect" is perfect. She entertained all the time, and she didn't sweat the small stuff. What she noticed, no one else did. Since perfect is unattainable, don't even try. Just give entertaining your best shot. And like Lisa said, prepare in advance so you'll have a nice time. If you're not relaxed, your guests won't be either. Love ya Lisa for this video reminder and your wonderful tips!
This is my favorite video of all!!! More lifestyle videos please! Thank you! 💕
I love the babysitter idea. Especially if you have a swimming pool.
Yes!! I agree! 😊🦩 Lisa
Over the years of hosting Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve I’ve learned to do Everything as Far in Advance as possible. So technically everyone is eating leftovers & foods prepared days or weeks ahead ( i freeze homemade dinner rolls, desserts, cookies ). The less to be done the day of is such a weight off my shoulders & lessons the time crunch stress!
Great tips Lisa! I love to entertain but I use to get so stressed. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned to do things ahead and also just relax about everything. If something doesn’t get done, no one will even know.
All great pieces of advice! Love to have little appetizers set up before guests arrive and drink “stations” tea water lemonade etc so they can have as much as they want without feeling like they are bothering you asking for another drink! Through the years we all have made or seen mistakes and learn from them to me these years are the best to enjoy having dinner parties and truly enjoy your guests!
I always clean the powder room the day before and then lock the door - everyone has to use a different bathroom for the day prior to the party
Good one!! Yes!! 👍🏻😍
Hi Lisa, I'm so happy to see you and so excited for your video! Thank you so much!! Have a beautiful evening!!! ❤
You just pushed me over the edge to do a holiday party this year! I’ve always done them but have skipped the past 3 years. I guess because of motivation. But you just reminded me how much I love it. I agree with everything you’ve shared Lisa!
Lisa, you are so right on.
My kids said to me one time. “I hate when you have parties or people over, you are mean to us…” I felt so awful. Asking him to explain…he said “we are not allowed to eat anything you have put out or touch anything it’s no fun.” LOL So you said it girl. I change from now on. Thanks for the tips. Happy healthy new year to you and yours.
Thank you Lisa. I have watched your channel since you began on YT. I Haven’t commented till the launch of your bundle with CAudette. I have ordered it !
I am 65 yrs old and I have been stressed out every single time I have had guests. EVERY TIME
So, I appreciate this content. Thanks.
Thank you, Linda!! 🥰
This was TREMENDOUSLY helpful!!! Thank you, now I've got to go clean for the party I'm hosting this weekend...
My husband and I love giving dinner parties for friends. We work as a team and I write up a game plan and timeline that starts a week in advance so nothing gets forgotten until the last minute. I think the setting is as important as the food and I get pleasure from creating beautiful tables which I finish at least the day before. We like to make the evening special for our guests as well as for ourselves. I hadn’t heard you talk about your dinner parties before but love hearing about menus and decor.
Oh my goodness these are awesome tips! Thank you Lisa 🥰
Great advice Lisa thank you! We just moved and are hosting the holidays, I will take all of this!
Love your tips so much! You are such a sweet and classy lady!!!
Such a great video idea Lisa! I am one of the ones who stresses out no matter how prepared I am! Thanks for the tips! ❤️
I love that you’re focused on making guests feel comfortable and welcomed in your home! This is perfect 🤩 and I’ll use these tips next week 💗
LISA!! This video was AMAZING!! I wish I would have seen it in my 20’s!! I was laughing thinking about how I was the epitome of what NOT to do!! I was like an I Love Lucy episode on multiple occasions!! What a practical video! I was shaking my head agreeing with everything!! Love your southern hospitality!! 💕
Playing hostess is difficult, circulating the room ,making sure everyone is taken care of. Best advice for a newbie is starting off with small gatherings only. Less stressful.
Excellent tips Lisa I’m having a dinner party on Sunday for the holidays I will use these tips I know they will help a lot thank you ❤️
Very helpful and heartfelt. Thank you so much for sharing!
Lisa you are a wonderful host,these tips are spot on and it really is all about making your guests feel welcome and special,a warm smile a gentle touch that is what is important to me,great video,🙏🌻
Thank you so much Lisa! What great tips and ideas!! I’m 56 and my mom died 8 years ago, and ever since I host every family holiday meal. So I really had to buckle down and learn how to do things these past few years. And still I stress about things. Just like the table scape. You really calmed me down about not being so concerned about the table decor; don’t do it just to impress. And that’s just what I’ve been stressing over and pouring over Pinterest. Well, now I’m going the 5 star restaurant route!!! Thank you Lisa ! Love ya, Cindy 🌻🎄
Thank you for sitting down and calmly reminding us of the ins and outs of a dinner party. The cleaning tips are what I most needed to hear. Also, to glorify our hubbies and not discuss any frustration! Thanks so much. You are priceless.
OMG! Great video, Lisa!! All fantastic tips!! I’m hoping a friends gathering next weekend and these are all great reminders!!!!! Thank you!!!!
Loved, loved, loved all these tips and so Lisa when you said how important it is to make everyone feel welcomed and special. We went to a party once and the hostess never introduced us to anyone, I thought that was so strange. Thanks for these tips!!
Thank you for sharing your tips! This was a great video!! I have one to share - whenever we are getting everyone together, people will invariably ask you "what can I bring" - and my answer is that as the host of the party, you should really make sure you have all of the main basics and special things covered and just tell them they don't need to bring a thing but themselves! BUT if someone really insists on bringing something (like a dessert or a favorite appetizer) you can let them, but make sure you're happy with your own full spread first. Gone are the days when I let different people bring a dish or a main part of the meal, because THAT alone stresses me out. I don't like dealing with the unknown of what or how much another person is bringing to the meal and whether everything will compliment the other things..💖
Lisa, what a great video. Giving dinner parties is my all time favorite thing. My momma always taught me that the dining room is the most important room in the house. This is the stage where he lady of the house shows her appreciation to her guests and her spouse. Making someone feel special is the most important thing. I adore a great table scape but I hate the over decorated table jammed with kitschy things from the craft store. It’s time to
use your best silver, China, and crystal. My nephews made me so proud one Thanksgiving. They were in their early teens and I overheard them explaining to another guest, the story of the knife rest and how to use it. I was so proud. They’d been introduced to using my crystal knife rests when they were little. They remembered the whole story I’d told them about the knife rests.
I’d love to come to a dinner party at your house♥️ Corn soufflé.. yum!
Hi Lisa, you gave great, great tips. I don't have dinner parties often and mostly in the past they were large family affairs. I was going down memory lane thinking of times I succeeded and times I didn't do as well. I agree it is all about making your guests feel special and as hosts you really are "on' when it is happening and that is sometimes hard for me if I am feeling insecure. Being prepared ahead of time as you mention goes a long way to being calm and hence secure and relaxed in most situations.
Lisa!!! I love you’re home can’t wait for the room tour
Great vid and tips! These are all the areas I could totally improve on!
Great advice! I always get stressed whenever we have company. That’s going to change…immediately. 👊🏻
Also, can’t wait to show up at your house with a tray of my homemade sausage balls. 😂😂 This year I will be making them ahead of time and freezing them. I can pull out a dozen at a time and freshly bake them, as needed. 👏🏻👏🏻
Oh, yes, sausage balls may be above pigs in the blanket!! 🤪😋😘
Great video. I get overwhelmed and stressed having people over for a gathering. What to serve …
Come from a big Italian family and we always start with hugs, laughter and love.
What to serve is what I stumble over.
Thank you for all the tips 🤗🌴🏝
Yes to all these tips, I loved this!!! You are amazing not asking your young ones to clean up their toys, how did you get them to start cleaning when they were older?? I’d still love to see a parenting/respect video from you. I can just tell you’re a wonderful mama!!!! 😘
Rocked this look,hair,jewerlys and makeup 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I learned a lesson this year, when I woke up the Wednesday before Thanksgiving with the worst hormonal headache and had put too much on my to do plate for that day. I'm grateful my son stepped up to help me with so much prep. Next year, I'll do as much as possible beforehand! Great tips, Lisa! I've never been a tablescape person, I'm already to neurotic about the food/drinks and everything else! lol
Hi Lisa! I just received your lip/eye bundle today and it all is gorgeous!! You hit it out of the park❣️❣️❣️
Yay!!! You are the first one!! I hope you love it!! 💗
Such good tips, Lisa!! I have done the “donts” more times than i want to admit, lol! I want to come to your house for dinner, lol! Merry Christmas, friend!
Lisa, the best and most amazing dinner party my husband and my husband attended was by a wonderful French lady. Her husband was the general manager of the company and they invited the four Vice Presidents and wives. She cooked the best scallops in French wine and steaks for everyone right before our eyes. It was such a wonderful event and she was a fantastic host.
Great tips Lisa!! Thanks. ♥️
Great tips! Thanks Lisa!
Awesome advice and I agree 100% with everything that you said, Lisa!
As always great tips I just can't tell u how much listening to u makes me try harder to be calmer and pay attention y my tone thank u for all u do. it's a lot of work and please know it don't go unoticed. Thank u for all the tips great advice.😊
Excellent tips! Thank You!
I love all your tips , I host a Christmas brunch for 20 to 25 of my family members and I start preparing about 3 to 4 days ahead I completely agree , your guests will forget what you served for dessert but they will never forget how you made them feel. I’ve learned the hard way don’t over do it , I’ve been exhausted by the time my guests arrive, one last thing I never ask my friends or family to help either, but I have an aunt who insists on washing dishes, I have a dishwasher, and she puts everything away in the wrong spot , any tips on that?! Lol!!!
got the blazer and I love it!! Thank you! X
Awesome!! It’s so nice, the cut and the quality! 👍🏻🥰😘
Such great tips and everything looks great!
Love this video, Lisa! Completely agree about keeping the stress level down! These are such good, practical tips ❤️ xoJill
Lisa I received my lip liner today. Love love love!!!!!!
Yay!!! I hope you enjoy it, I really think you will! 😘
You're ahhhmazing, as per usual!! Thanks amiga, Merry Christmas & wishing you & your fam a blessed 2022!
really enjoyed this video. love those jeans
These are wonderful tips Lisa! Thank you! Wishing you and your family happy holidays :)
Place cards do show that you have thought about each person. These are great tips! Anything you can do in advance you should do.
Love this type of content :) I’m 30 and starting to host more but my mom died when I was a teenager so I only got the chance to learn a few of these tips, not all
Very nice video!! Thanks for those great tips
So true Lisa! We went to dinner at my brother and sister in laws house they live a couple hours away. We left early to avoid traffic and ended up getting there early. I told my husband they probably were not ready for us yet. And he said oh let’s go on over,they won’t mind.. our sister in law who was fairly new to the family answered the door wet hair no make up and mortified! So don’t go until the appointed time..
I enjoyed this video so much!
Great advice Lisa!
Merry Christmas to you and your family 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
Love this topic! Your talking videos are the best Lisa xox
Great tips!!!!! Thank you!
Great video, thank you! I am curious about those recipes...
You are definitely a Virgo lol..born on the same day as me…through the years I have learned all of these tips bc we are perfectionist and I have literally worn myself out trying to make everything perfect then when the event is happening I would be so exhausted that I didn’t enjoy myself like I should have…age helps with a LOT of this for sure…Awesome tips and I LOVED the pig in the blanket throw in…being from the Deep South you know when your the one that has them you have made everyone happy especially the men haha!! Great video Lisa…haven’t been on much to leave comments bc I have been watching on Roku but it does give me a 👍🏻to hit..
Merry Christmas 🤩🎄♥️
We love to each one to bring a dish. Where ever we go
Great video thank you!
Great advice!!!
I'd love to see your crab dip recipe. ❤️
So relatable!
Great advise ! I used to freak out about the details . I learned quickly to not sweat the small stuff ! Now I just open the door tell them to sit a spell and have a drink ! And help yourself and wash their plate before they leave lol ! Just foolin with you Lisa 💋
I think a beautiful outfit with some sparkly house shoes for comfort! ☺️
How about satin PJ set with the sparkly house shoes 😊
Great tips, Lisa!
There is nothing worse than going to a dinner party where you feel the host's stress. You almost feel like a bother, I hate it.
Good tips! I have to police my friends to keep them out of my kitchen after dinner. I want to do the cleaning by myself.
Great tips and good video. Lisa
My only favorite get together dinner parties are the dessert 🍮 and coffee or wine and a chitchat amazing conversations. Or even hang out at the fire pit with wine 🍷 and make s’mores with a warm cozy blanket enjoying the fall and winter weather. It’s stunning time of the year. Look at Chanel aww 🥰
Great tips Lisa 💕 you are the epitome of class and chic 😘😘 I'd love to be at one your gatherings 😍💋💋
Lisa, your tips are spot on. When you mentioned not to be bickering during the party I couldn’t help but think of ‘The Office’ episode when Michael and Jan were fighting during their dinner party🤣😂
Oh my goodness, the best!! John and I were just talking about her candles 🤣 “you burn it, you buy it” and “snip snap snip snap” 😫🥰😘😂
@@LisaLisaD1 🤣
Hi Lisa, how many people did you have over for Thanksgiving? How did you arrange the seating?
I teally liked and agreed with everytjing u said
Sadly we need a video on how to be a good guest. My Mother taught me that a dinner guest should never go into the refrigerator and you are not to help without first asking. I personally do not like people taking over and “helping”. Please do not hover in the kitchen area while the host is getting things ready. I have a friend who thinks people don’t invite her because she has food allergies but the truth is that she is too invasive and acts like she is the host. I would love a video on how to be a good guest, too many people have forgotten how to even bring a hostess gift and the proper time to arrive. I enjoyed hearing your tips Lisa. 🌸
Now we need the corn soufflé recipe!
I agree. It sounds wonderful! Is it posted somewhere?
I found the link, Thanks!
Excellent Tips!
Loved this.
Thanks for including the corn soufflé Lisa , would you be able to do a link for the cool whip dream dessert too ? I’m originally from Scotland and some people over here aren’t so keen on the British desserts. I love listening and watching your channel. Maybe you could do a favorite dinner party meal video ?
One of the very best of our American desserts is banana pudding, look it up online!
People will always remember how you make them feel❤️
Hi Lisa, hope you are well. I was wondering if you could let me know where you bought your dining table light/chandelier from? What brand or model is it? Thanks
You are sensational. Thanks for the tips 😋🍽
