Here are a few menu ideas. I love appetizers too, and the right ones can be very filling. I host many parties and these are my guests favorites. 1. APPETIZER MEATBALLS: chilli and cranberry sauce are a great combo for these, and it's convenient to serve them in a crock pot. 2. TORTILLA ROLL-UPS. My guests devour these up. You can use any combination filling. I mix cream cheese with ranch dip mix and use ham, cheddar cheese and jalapenos for zip. Anything works. 3. VEGETABLE PIZZA, again very easy and satisfying. And you can make it ahead. 4. CHEESE FONDUE. Serve with chunks of bread and crackers. 5. SLICED COLD KIEBALSA 6. SPINICH BREAD DIP....ALWAYS A FAVORITE. 7. VEGETABLE and dip platter. There are so many different appetizers, make sure you check the lonks and recipes.

Now just some decorating ideas. Use white table cloths and use ivy leaves to decorate the tables. Gold candles for centerpieces.

It sounds like your party maybe a little more elegant but....hang clothes line around the room, with lingerie on the line.

Just some suggestions. Let me know how it turns out. Maybe you will come up with some ideas I can use for future parties.
