Everything You Need To Throw an Unforgettable Summer Housewarming Party
When the warm breeze of summer whisks through your new home, it’s the perfect time to share your fresh start with friends and family. But we’re not just talking about a casual house tour and store-bought cookies.
You deserve an epic celebration that mirrors the vibrancy of the season itself! This isn’t just a guide to a housewarming party — it’s the blueprint to an unforgettable summer bash you and your guests will discuss for years to come. To help you prepare for this one-time soiree that will define the summer season for everyone you know, we’ve put together a list of everything you need to throw an unforgettable summer housewarming party.
As they say, go big or go home. And you’re already home, so might as well do both!
A Safety Net With Steadily Insurance
Renters might not know about that landlord insurance cost Steadily’s talking about, but it may help you out. (It definitely helps your landlord.)
Now, you might be thinking, what’s insurance got to do with a housewarming party? In the midst of all the excitement of moving to a new place, it’s easy to overlook the importance of insurance. This often-underestimated safety net is as essential as the home you’re warming!
If you’re renting, you should know that your landlord is obligated to have insurance to cover their rental property. That said, it’s also a good idea to have your own renter’s insurance to ensure you’re covered in an emergency or to fill in the gaps if your landlord’s insurance isn’t exactly first-rate. Of course, if they’re insured with Steadily, you know you’re in good hands!
Just think of it as a bit of precaution that enables you to host the most fantastic party of the summer stress-free. After all, who wants to worry about potential accidents or property damage when you could be enjoying a fun-filled evening with your loved ones?
Delicious Thirst-Quenching Healthy Soda From Olipop
What’s a summer soiree without something cold and fizzy to drink? But if you’re from a health-conscious family or group of friends, serving up liters of sugar-laden soda may not be the order of the day.
Luckily, Olipop’s healthy soda is the ultimate crowd-pleaser, both for people who prioritize taste and for individuals who treat their bodies as a temple into which no added sugar shall enter. It’s effervescent, refreshing, and the perfect complement to those flavorful party snacks.
The truth is that every successful housewarming party needs a stellar beverage lineup, but not all beverages are created equal. We all love the bubbling sensation of a chilled soda, but traditional options aren’t always the healthiest choice.
With Olipop, you don’t have to compromise on taste or health. Their soda delivers all the enjoyment of your favorite fizzy drinks with a welcome wholesome twist.

At a housewarming party, spills happen, but that doesn’t mean they should leave a mark. That said, if the idea of a washable rug makes you hesitant, you’re not alone! So many lesser options sacrifice style for function, but you don’t have to worry with Tumble’s rugs.

CBD Oil From Veritas Farms Pampers Your Pooch
Let’s not forget about your four-legged family members! This is their new home, too.

hOmeLabs’ Window Air Conditioner Beats the Heat
Especially if you live somewhere with impressive temperatures in the summer, the key to hosting a fun and festive housewarming is ensuring that, even as the party heats up, your guests remain cool and comfortable. If your new home doesn’t have central air, you might be grasping for standalone fans. Instead, you should reach for hOmeLabs’ window air conditioner.

No celebration is complete without a toast, and your housewarming party is no exception.

If some of your friends choose not to imbibe, or you have guests below the legal drinking age, offering delicious non-alcoholic spirits from Aplós is the perfect way to make sure everybody feels included and gets into the festive mood.
It’s a delightful twist that showcases your thoughtfulness as a host and ensures everyone can join the festivities. Even for guests who do enjoy an alcoholic drink, it’s good to have other options that they can mix it up with or switch to when they’re looking to wind down.
It’s all about creating that party atmosphere … without the hangovers or blurred memories the next day.
Brightech’s Solar Powered String Lights Illuminate the Night
As dusk falls and the twinkling stars make their first appearance, it’s time to make some moves.

That’s why you cleverly strung up your backyard, patio, or balcony with Brightech solar-powered string lights.

ButcherBox’s Barbecue-Ready Meats Savor the Flavors
What’s a summer party without a barbecue, right? While it’s important to ensure you have some options available for any vegetarian attendees, most omnivores and meat-eaters will agree — the star of any barbecue is the meat.
