If you like to throw dinner parties, being a Progressive Dinner Host is a great way to entertain. As a Host, here is what is expected of you:
- Be able to comfortably seat and willingly feed 6-10 neighbors, including yourself.
- Be willing to have people you don’t know (yet!) over for a one- to two-course dinner (at least a main course; a salad or other first course is optional).
- Do attend the pre-dinner gathering at a beautiful neighborhood home for wine, beer, and hors d'oeuvres, but either (A) walk over with your guests or (B) plan to be at your home before 7 pm to greet your guests. (Hint: Option B is more fun!)
- Be mindful of the time so you and your guests can walk to the dessert gathering at a neighborhood location TBA.
Don’t have a dining room?
No problem, serve buffet style in your living area.
Like to have people over but afraid it will be too costly, or don’t consider yourself to be Julia Child?
- No problem, serve something simple like pasta and salad, or order take-out entrees from a local market or restaurant.
- Attendees are asked to bring a bottle of wine per person or couple to share with the group at dinner.
- Hosts do NOT have to purchase Attendee tickets. Your generosity in opening your home and making dinner are your contribution to the event.
We are always in need of Hosts willing to accommodate vegetarian and celiac Attendees. If you are willing to make a vegetarian or gluten-free dinner, please consider hosting and note it on your sign-up form. Thank you!
