Hanukkah is a very special occasion for the Jewish
community. Marking the occasion with a Hanukkah party is a great way to
celebrate the Festival of Lights with family and friends. Throughout the
season of religious observance, Hanukkah parties are arranged in almost
every Jewish household. People always make it a point to keep up the
festive spirit throughout the Hanukkah party. The eight-days holiday
season is filled with enthralling Hanukkah parties arranged in Jewish
households.
Planning of a party starts from the party invitations. Hanukkah party
invitations are largely based on the traditional Hanukkah theme. Party
invitations should be sent out many days prior to the party, so that
your guests get enough time to adjust their schedule. Another important
element is Hanukkah party decorations. Again, try to include the
important Hanukkah symbols such as Menorah and dreidel in your
decorations. Hanging a "Happy Hanukkah" banner on the
entranceway and decorating the tables with Hanukkah centerpiece are nice
ways to convey your festive mood.
Who can exclude the traditional "dreidel game"! This Hanukkah
party game is perhaps the inevitable part of Hanukkah party. Hanukkah
party menu generally includes traditional Hanukkah food such as potato
latkes, roast chicken, doughnuts, fried fritters etc. Oil is the key
ingredient for the dinner. To conclude the party, Hanukkah party favors
are given to the guests. Hanukkah party favors are ways to extend a
token of thanks to the guests who have accepted the party invitation and
joined you in the celebrations.
