You can party like a star, with a little help from the Emmy party planners. Here are a few tips for hosting a festive Emmy party at home that emulates the real deal. Have fun and feature a starry, starry night decor by dimming the lights, lighting lots of candles, pulling out white twinkling Christmas lights and draping them off dining tables, suggests Cheryl Cecchetto, event planning guru. Make a trip to the floral and fabric marts in downtown Los Angeles (8th and Maple streets), if possible for inexpensive tablecloth fabrics, fresh flowers and other decorations such as 2x2, 4x4 or larger size square glass vases. Otherwise, try stores like Michaels or Jo-Ann. Drape dining tables in midnight blues and silvers -- with inexpensive sheer organza placed over more dense fabrics. Use a table runner, if desired. Scatter star-shaped silver and gold metallic confetti all over to add extra glitz. Get creative with florals. Use oasis in the shape of balls or spheres, soak it, then let it hang for a bit so the water drips out, advises Cecchetto. Using white carnations or white roses, create a ball of flowers. Put the spheres on top of square glass vases so they look like they are floating. Or submerge the flowers compactly in the vase in water. Or float or put candles in glass containers or vases. To mix it up, use a combination of three flower spheres and three floating candles, if desired. Use clear or white plates for dinner courses. Look for plates and other items (not too cluttered) at Target, Big Lots or Ross. If you have silver serving trays, platters, etc. (or anything gold) pull them out and use to tie in with the silver and gold decor being used at the Emmys. Print your menu on blue or silver paper and include astrological signs on one side. Place in a picture frame (remove the photo) that you already have and set on the dining table/buffet. Decorate tables with small mirror balls (think Christmas decorations) or hang from a chandelier. Use mirrored platters or mirrored risers (on a buffet table). Go online and get a list of the Emmy nominees. E-mail the list to your guests, ask them to print it out and vote for a winner in each category and bring it completed (with name on it ) to the party to compete for a fun prize. Play 'Glee' music in the background (pick up a CD at Target) at the party -- or music from those who'll be entertaining (i.e. Barbara Morrison) at the Governors Ball. Get guests revved up. Tell guests your menu is similar to what the television stars are eating. Offer the Grey Goose signature martini that the stars will be drinking. Or drink the same champagne (Moet & Chandon) or Beaulieu Vineyard wines with dinner.
