Crate and Barrel Holiday Giveaway + Hostess Gift Guide Perfect for Newly Engaged or Newlyweds!
The Holidays are in full swing and your calendar is probably packed with tacky Christmas sweater parties, office Secret Santa’s, dinner parties, and entertaining out of town guests. Whether your throwing the party or a guest here’s exactly what you need to host and to gift the hostess this holiday season. Plus, a bonus cocktail recipe and a giveaway from the Crate and Barrel Wedding Registry!
P.S. Each of these gifts was actually on our Crate and Barrel Wedding Registry! Since we love to entertain my registry had a lot of hosting essentials and bar cart focused items. So pop on over to Crate and Barrel and add them to your registry, too. Nothing like your first holiday as newlyweds so let’s make it stylish!
For the Dinner Party Hostess
- One can really never have too many cheese boards, right?! I love my Hayes Black Marble Cheese Board it works great for cheese plates or appetizers.
- Running out of glasses while hosting – nightmare! Help the hostess out with a few of these Oregon Wine Glasses or these retro Hip Champagne Glass
- Gifting flatware? Ahh, might be weird so these Kenton Gold 20-Piece Flatware Set are really to gift yourself for the perfect holiday place setting.
For the At-Home Mixologist
- I swooned when I saw the Frye Bar Set ™ and Clay loves it too. This bar set works well for your brother, single guy friend or for the couple that always makes the best cocktails.
- The Bash Copper Beverage Tub is that party accessory you don’t know you needed until you’re throwing a party, honestly, since we got our’s last spring; I have used it so much, everyone needs one of these.
For the Aspiring Wine Connoisseur
- After getting our Rabbit ® Super Wine Aerator/Pourer and Rabbit ® Automatic Wine Preserver our registry we have been trying to up our wine game, ya know less box, more bottled wine. The wine preserver lets you seal wine so you can keep it for longer and the aerator quickly injects air into your wine opening it up so you can taste the full flavor profile.
- Help your other newlywed friends up to their wine game too with a stylish Swoon Wine Decanter or French Kitchen Marble Wine Cooler to chill their favorite Rosé.
