Whether in life or work, Chinese people have the Xi of using wine to convey affection.
How can we make the banquet achieve the desired effect and leave a deep impression on the guests?
And the opening remarks at the wine table naturally became the key to this meal. Saying a few sincere and appropriate words can not only show your bearing, but also make the atmosphere of the whole reception relaxed and pleasant.
If you can remember these three opening lines, I am sure you will win the respect of everyone.
Ask your work partner for a drink
As the initiator of the dinner, the words and expressions of the opening speech are very important. The purpose of our dinner is supposed to be to build and maintain relationships, so we need to convey a genuine sense of gratitude in our speeches.
So we can say something like, "Since joining our company, I feel that I have not only improved my work ability, but also changed my mindset. All of this is inseparable from the support and help given to me by the company's leaders and colleagues, and I sincerely thank you for your careful guidance and encouragement to me. ”
Such words can open up the topic and cause everyone to resonate and respond. In addition to being grateful for the past, we can also express our expectations for the future through our speeches. This shows our positive attitude and passion for our work, motivates and inspires everyone to pursue excellence together.
However, in the course of the presentation, we should be careful not to be lengthy and boring. Speaking for too long can cause the audience to lose concentration. We should focus on the key points and condense the content of the speech to ensure that everyone can continue to pay attention and feel that we are sincere about the dinner.
The most important thing is to avoid artificial, especially those that are too exaggerated. Once it makes people feel hypocritical, then the meal is meaningless.
Invite relatives to dinner
Kinship is one of our closest human bonds in our lives. While we may be scattered around for work and other reasons, it is even more important to take this opportunity to strengthen the emotional bond between our loved ones on special occasions such as holidays and festive occasions.
When there is a happy event in the family, such as the birth of a child, we organize a big dinner. As hosts, we should express our welcome and gratitude to all of you with sincere words. For example, we can express the joy of the arrival of a new member of the family and the anticipation of the reunion of the family members from the perspective of the child.
"Dear family, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend Zihan's first birthday party. On this special day, we are fortunate to be able to gather together to witness the growth of Zihan and the continuation of our family. We hope that everyone can enjoy this wonderful moment to the fullest, enjoy the food and share our happiness without being inhibited. ”
Not only that, but we should also remember that at all times, relatives are our strongest support. Whether it is a challenge at work or a difficulty in life, they will not hesitate to stand by our side and give us support and help.
So when we invite them to dinner, we should emphasize this deep emotional bond, not just a formal formality. Only in this way can we get closer to each other.
Treat friends to dinner
Since we live independently, it has become a cherished experience to make friends and make it to the end. We meet many people in school and workplace, but it is not easy to be a true close friend. Friendship should be carefully maintained and sincere emotions should be maintained as if it were love.
Keeping in touch with friends and getting together often is the best way to strengthen the emotional bond between us. For those who are closer, small gatherings don't need to be too formal, just as casual as family gatherings.
For large gatherings, we can adjust the wording appropriately to express pride and blessings for the brief separation and the respective families and careers, and toast together to celebrate this rare reunion, which also adds warmth to the friendship.
In addition to dinner, adding some fun games can better liven up the atmosphere and help everyone feel like they have returned to the good school days. However, valuing friendship is not limited to dinners.
When we invite friends to drink, we also need to adjust our words slightly, treat people honestly, and show our attitude of valuing friendship with sincerity and enthusiasm, so that friends can feel our sincerity and intentions.
So you can say something like: "It's all a family, you're welcome, I specially brought good wine today, let's have a drink!"
We need to understand that friendship is based on mutual understanding and respect. We only need to irrigate with our hearts to thrive.
The secret to a perfect drinking game
In fact, as the organizers, in addition to meticulous care and care, how to arrange the seats skillfully is also a key part of ensuring the success of the wine party.
First of all, we need to confirm the relationship with the invitees in advance, and carefully plan the seats of each person according to the identity of the guests. Not only does this convey to our guests that we value them, but it also controls the atmosphere and mood of the party.
In order not to confuse the seating plan, it is advisable to place a beautiful seat card on each person's seat in advance, with their name clearly marked on it, so as not to cause confusion or embarrassment.
Seating should also be arranged to take into account the level of familiarity between guests, e.g. relatives and family can sit together, and work partners can motivate each other. And for people who may have conflicts, it is better to arrange them far away to avoid unpleasant situations after drinking.
On the day of the banquet, the organizer should personally guide the guests to their reserved seats. To ensure that our guests feel that we are attentive and attentive, we can understand their tastes and preferences in advance, and prepare special drinks or dishes for them to show our care.
If you're too busy for a while, ask a close friend to help, or appoint a team leader to guide the guests to their seats. This will not only ease our burden, but also keep the drinking party in order and give us a proper warm welcome.
In addition, during the pre-dinner communication session, we can use laughter and humor to increase the liveliness of the overall atmosphere, so as to help guests integrate easily. Through a simple greeting and communication with each guest, everyone feels how they are treated at this party.
In any case, we, as organizers, must show humility. Only in this way can every guest feel our care and care.
