With stylish spaces and thoughtful amenities, your apartment is ready to welcome friends and family for a festive celebration. Whether it’s a cozy dinner or a lively Friendsgiving, your home at The Shay sets the perfect stage.

Planning Ahead

Preparation makes all the difference for stress-free hosting. Start with a guest list and a simple menu that fits your space. The Shay’s modern kitchens, with plenty of counter space, make cooking and serving easy. Add cozy, seasonal decor like candles, table runners, or small pumpkins to bring in a festive vibe. Rearrange your seating to create inviting spaces where guests can relax and mingle. If you have a balcony or patio, set it up with soft lighting and blankets for an outdoor chill zone. A little prep ensures your apartment feels warm and ready for the occasion.

Creating Top 3 Tips

1. Elevate Your Buffet Setup
   Use your kitchen island or dining table as a stylish serving station. Add decorative touches like greenery or holiday-themed napkins to make the setup look polished and inviting.
2. Focus on Comfort
   Arrange throw pillows and blankets in your living room to make it feel cozy and welcoming. Use dim lighting, candles, or string lights to create a warm glow, and play a holiday playlist to set the mood.
3. Simplify Cleanup
   Set up trash and recycling bins before guests arrive. Take advantage of your apartment’s modern appliances to quickly handle dishes so you can enjoy the evening with your guests.

At The Shay Apartments in Nashville, TN, hosting for the holidays is all about connection and fun. Make this Thanksgiving a celebration to remember!
