Nothing brings people together like a good old-fashioned cocktail party. The great thing about cocktail parties is you don't need a reason to throw one. Perhaps it's Friday and you want to catch up on old times, or you just moved into a new apartment in Manhattan, or you're celebrating a promotion at work. . .you could host a cocktail party for no reason other than you and your friends want to get together to wear extravagant red hats.

When it comes to throwing a cocktail party, it's important to remember the basic rules of etiquette. If you want to impress your friends, always pick up food and hold your drink with your left hand. This frees up your right hand for shaking hands when you meet people. Anything passed on a tray may be picked up with your napkin. Red wine is to be held by the bowl, while white wine is to be held by the stem.

If you're throwing a cocktail party, plan on the event lasting for two to three hours. You always want to have plenty of beverages on hand, and you always want to make sure to provide your guests with plenty of cocktail napkins. As a rule, it's a good idea to select napkins that match your theme or the formality of your event. For example, if you're throwing a garden party with cocktails, fine linen cocktail napkins are ideal.
