Game Day Glam Party Idea + Free Printables

Who’s getting ready for the Big Game this weekend?  People all across the country will be gathering around their tv’s to cheer on their favorite team.  But whether you’re a New England fan or you’ll be rooting for Los Angeles, I think we can all agree that the real star of the show is your game day spread!

My husband usually goes out with friends for the game, so I thought it would be perfect for me to invite “the wives” over and host a more upscale Game Day Party!

To kick things off, I created a backdrop by printing a 24” by 36” poster that says “Eat Drink Football”.  I added black and white ribbon, and a black bow to the front. My subscribers can print their own poster by visiting the Subscriber’s Lounge and downloading it!  
My little gift to you!

I kept things simple when it came to the food.  I ordered takeout from Applebee’s-- game day is not the day to stick to your diets, friends!  I choose classic game day snacks like mozzarella cheese sticks, fries, wings and tacos.

Then I added some delicious spinach and artichoke dip served with tortilla chips, yum!

For the beverages, I served bottled water with printable bottle wrappers (also available in the Subscriber’s Lounge).  

I served sodas also, presented in these cute cups from Tossware, I love that they’re shaped like little soda cans!  

To make them even cuter, I added some number stickers and a black and white paper straw.

Because I wanted a more upscale Big Game celebration, I kept my color scheme simple in black and white with greenery. It’s always nice to add greenery or floral arrangements to bring some nature in.

I used black and white cake stands and serving dishes, and also added little elements of fun, like the football shaped dip cups and the cute food flags, throughout the table. It’s the little extras that make a celebration special!
