thanks
Answer Sounds like it could be fun. In our experience, we've found that mixing new groups of women together can be a challenge. While we love spending time with our close friends, we aren't always very welcoming to newcomers. To overcome this potential challenge, we suggest adding some type of activity to give your gathering a purpose and help break the ice.
Pick up some facial masks at the drug store or invite a local Mary Kay rep and call it a spa night. Are you into playing cards? Call it a ladies poker night. Have everyone bring their favorite bottle of wine and have a wine tasting. Host a book swap - everyone brings a few of the books from their personal libraries and trades.
These are just a few ideas to help get you started. Once you add the activity, it'll be easy to come up with a name for the event.
