Okay. It’s the night of the big party. You’ve been planning things for weeks and you’re dressed to the nines. A truly amazing experience awaits. So, how do you make a statement entrance? With some expert guidance, of course! We’ve put together our top 5 tips to help you arrive in style and turn heads along the way. Read on to learn more.
- Hire a limo
It’s not every day that you get the chance to lash out on a stretch limousine, so take full advantage of the occasion. Grab a bunch of your best friends and buckle up for an awesome time. Think amazing drinks, great music and endless laughs as your driver chauffers you straight to the front door. Roll down the windows for some quality airtime with the crew and snap some Instagram-worthy pics along the way. Just remember to split the bill at the end of the trip so you aren’t left with a costly surprise!
- Get a cab
Okay, so number two may not be as classy as what came before, but it’s still a great way to get you and your friends to the event in one piece. Hail a driver from the sidewalk and keep an eye on the meter as you cruise to your destination. Leave a tip if some backstreet knowhow gets your there in record time.
Important: don’t get caught up in the excitement and leave something behind! Be sure to check for your purse and any other belongings before you jump out the door.
- Share an uber pool
You never know who you might end up taking a ride with thanks to this awesome service. Grab your phone, open the app and punch in an address. It’s that easy. Keep in mind that it’s important to arrive at your pickup location on time, as UberPool doesn’t afford you the same luxury as their standard service. So, don’t be tardy or a cancellation fee may well sour the rest of your evening. Other than that, get to know your co-passengers, enjoy a cheap ride and you might even leave with some cool new friends.
- Walk
What’s wrong with getting some exercise along the way? Absolutely nothing. Cardio is in and so is that dress! Know the route and understand that you may have to walk in heels, boots or dress shoes. Alternatively, consider bringing more practical footwear that you can change out of. Walking to a function is a great way to get some fresh air and save some cash along the way.
- Get there late!
It’s 2019 but the golden rule is still alive and well – arriving late is a great way to make a stylish entrance. Remember to be respectful however, and make sure that you don’t take things too far. No one wants to miss the appetisers. That’s a memory that will haunt you for years to come.
The verdict
It really doesn’t matter how you choose to arrive as long as you have fun along the way. Attending an awesome event at a special venue is always memorable, so be sure to do some planning and get there safely, and in style.
