[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell me about welcome parties that you have attended or hosted. [b]1) Did you limit drinks? [/b] [color=red]No. It was mainly beer, wine and some selected alcohol.  No limits, but it was only a 2-3 hour event. We were in our own space in the restaurant and so they had set up a separate bar for us. The restaurant kept a tab of what was consumed. No one got drunk or had enormous amount to drink. [/color]The venue suggested giving each attendee two tickets for drinks and after that it's self pay.[b] 2) Did you bring in decor, if so, what?[/b][color=red]No. The restaurant venue was already very cute and lovely so no additional beautification was needed. However, we have seen fairylights in mason jars in other welcome dinners.  My own estimation is that it is not required and no one cares.  [/color] [b]3) Did you have appetizers passed or set out?[/b] [color=red]Heavy appetizers were set out like a buffet on chafing dishes. Food was substantial enough to be seen as dinner (mini sliders, meatballs, skewers, mac and cheese bites, salads, shrimp cocktail, chicken, stuffed peppers etc)  [/color]* We are trying to limit the cost and it seems like it could turn into a mini reception.
