And the Oscar goes to….
The Oscars airs this Sunday, March 4th. Will you be watching the Oscars? I know, I will. Gather your friends for a night in, pop the bubbly, curate a tray full of goodies for a fun viewing party and get comfy!
Besides watching my favorite stars as they walk down the red carpet in their gowns, it’s the time when we like to list which movies we didn’t get a chance to watch and view on our movie nights at home.
If you’re looking to keep it casual versus a full-blown party, you can do what I did and simply set a tray on your coffee table – add some snacks and libations, making it easy and convenient for your friends to enjoy while watching the Oscars on the television. To make the presentation a little fancy, I brought out my gold metal tray, gold-rimmed champagne flutes, and my festive gold polka dot ice bucket. Being that we live in Western, PA, we purchased some Oscar worthy popcorn from Pittsburgh Popcorn. Yummy flavors like Chunky Chocolate Caramel, Wisconsin Cheddar, and Sweet & Salty Kettle. I dressed the popcorn up in glass cylinder vases that you can find at the Dollar store! For the gummies and the chocolate, I placed them in champagne coupe glasses. I scattered extra chocolates that are individually wrapped throughout the tray so that each guest can reach and grab one, no matter where they are sitting.
Don’t forget your Oscar Ballots. It’s so much fun to make your picks and see how you did. Eden of Sugar and Charm provided her readers with a free 2018 Oscar Ballot Printable! Head on over to her site so you can download and print some for you and your guests.
If you will be serving something other than bubbly, you can prefill a few champagne glasses with a little bit of every goodie on the tray. Guests will appreciate the yummy filled treats!
I hope this post gave you some inspiration for this Sunday’s red carpet event! Cheers!!
