Say goodbye to the busy restaurants and long lines; and get ready to host your very own Cinco de Mayo party from your Chesapeake Homes New Construction home. Chesapeake Homes works hard to make sure our floorplans help you live the lifestyle you want, and this includes hosting friends and family. Check out our tips and tricks to throwing an epic fiesta from the comfort of your own home below.
1. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR LARGE ISLAND FOR HOSTING
This is the perfect opportunity to use your large open island in your home to create a full nacho table. Lay down foil on the island first, then chips, and then get to topping with meat, cheese, tomatoes, cilantro, or anything else that sounds delicious. This trending nacho table is the perfect food and set up for Cinco de Mayo while also making everyone jealous of your beautiful kitchen. When your guests see your nacho style charcuterie board they will want a large island for their kitchen too. Plus, a nacho table is easy to clean up! Roll up the foil and throw it away.
2. OUTDOOR LOUNGING AND MUSIC ON THE PATIO
What’s better than a sunny day and some music? How about a sunny day with music while hosting a Cinco de Mayo party. Chesapeake Homes understands that your outdoor living is just as important as your indoors, that’s why we offer various options such as covered rear porches, outdoor fireplaces, and more to make sure your outdoor living area is ready for every party.
3. CREATING CONVERSATIONS BETWEEN GUESTS
Thanks to Chesapeake Homes’ open floorplans, getting people talking from every corner of your home is no problem. Our open concepts allow no one to feel left out and let the fun to be felt throughout the home. This helps take one thing off your plate, meaning you and your guests can relax and enjoy the company.
4. CAN’T FORGET A DRINK STATION
Many people would say a Cinco de Mayo party isn’t complete without a margarita. Take the stress off of you and set up a make your own margarita station using different mixers and fruits so everyone gets a flavor they love. Make some of the mixes ahead of time so they are ready, and all your guests need to do is pour. Show off more of your new home by turning your dining room or butler’s pantry into everyone’s favorite space of the night with your DIY Margs.
