Hot Take: Cinematic Celebrations

Breakout the popcorn & PJs because it’s movie night. This is our Hot Take on how to curate an Academy Award winning performance of everyone’s favorite stay-in activity – equipped with nostalgic bites, cinema -inspired decor, movie playlists & more.

The Vibe

Enter the set of Casablanca – a grainy, black and white scene reminiscent of the very first blockbusters. For this cinematic celebration, think classic Hollywood in its heyday with a projector & box office sign – but envision Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe are taking a night off to slumber party at your place.

The Food

While this party is more about the movie than the menu, simple snacks of both the sweet and salty variety must be in supporting roles. Popcorn is as essential as the fuzzy slippers, but add a touch of elevation with a popcorn bar using classic movie theater bites. Add fresh veggies and a movie-themed dessert to finish off the spread.

The goal is to serve up a beverage that you and your guests can sip on through all 8 Harry Potters (A.K.A. all night long). Through our hosting experience, that has always been wine. Nothing beats cozying up with your girls, a few bottles of red, some sweet & salty snacks – and Chad Michael Murray in a football uniform.
