Now that it is December,  holiday entertaining is on my mind. I like to keep my get-togethers simple, festive and fun! A cocktail party for friends, family and co-workers is one of the easiest, no-fuss ways to entertain. Everyone is welcome to stop by for as long or as short as their holiday plans allow. I usually set up a drink station so that beverages are available to guests. No matter what time people arrive, they can help themselves and then move on to mingle and eat!

This year, I created some fun printables to add some decor and fun to my table! See below to print my holiday sign and water bottle labels.

The Essentials:

Decor

Servewear

Drinks (Beer, Wine, Water, Mixed Drinks)

Candy/Mints

Plates/Napkins

Holiday entertaining can be easy and simple! And there’s no better way to make it simple than by shopping at Price Chopper. On a recent trip, I found their seasonal aisle to be filled with everything I could possibly need for the holidays – from candy, to gift wrap, decor and lights — this aisle was incredibly well-stocked, saving me an extra trip to another store. #HolidayAdvantEdge #ad After stocking up on all the decor and food items for my cocktail party, I was able to shop in-store for beer and wine. This completed my list with one less stop! #HolidayAdvantEdge #ad

See how it all came together:

To set up a great beverage table, I started with a favorite gold chevron holiday runner to keep it bright and festive.

#HolidayAdvantEdge #ad I included trays,  servewear and linens that I found at Price Chopper in the seasonal aisle. #ad #HolidayAdvantEdge #HolidayAdvantEdge #ad

Easy, Festive Centerpiece

To decorate, I decided to use some seasonal items in an unexpected way. I picked up beautiful silver and gold bows at Price Chopper and paired them with some ornaments I already had.

What You Need:  Hurricane Vase – or any other type of vase

Ornaments

Gift Bows 

To make this centerpiece,  simply layer the hurricane vase with the ornaments and bows. It creates such a fun display.

#HolidayAdvantEdge #ad This was simple and inexpensive and you can use it for the whole season. You can also shop Price Chopper’s floral department for a more traditional floral centerpiece. I like to buy smaller bouquets to create my own unique arrangements. Another idea that works well in a hurricane centerpiece  – pair split peas with whole, dry cranberries and fill in layers. #HolidayAdvantEdge #ad I also picked up these adorable figurines at Price Chopper. At night, they glow and add in the perfect touch of fun. They were such a great value and an item that I’ll use for years to come. #HolidayAdvantEdge #ad I always have wine, soda, water and beer available. I can find our favorite winter beers, like Blue Moon, at Price Chopper. I purchased both the seasonal and the original Belgian white. I usually display the beer on ice – keeping more outside on the deck. We periodically bring them in so nice cold beers are always available.

#HolidayAdvantEdge #ad

#HolidayAdvantEdge #ad I decided to make some festive labels to help dress up a plain bottle of water. Get yours below! #holidayAdvantEdge #ad Finally, a mint candy for guests to grab and fun straws round out my cocktail party table! #HolidayAdvantEdge #ad Easy Table Decor #HolidayAdvantEdge #ad With Price Chopper, creating your own unique holiday celebration is just a shopping trip away! #HolidayAdvantEdge #ad

    I love the idea of a drink/cocktail station! I feel like our beverages are all over the place at parties. Wine on the counter, beer in the garage, soda in the fridge. This makes it so much easier and its so beautiful and festive! #client
