In this video I sit down with my lovely mama and we chat everything hosting and holiday party-throwing! We come from decades of experience with hosting family and friends for both large and small parties and have a bit of wedding/event coordination and catering under our belts as well! We want to share what has worked for us with prepping and serving food, how to schedule your day, what we do about a "kids' table," how to let go of stress and pressure, how to entertain in a small space and more!
On this channel, you'll notice I take a bit of a different approach to prepping and planning for the holidays. I want to be a source of motivation and encouragement that you don't have to be pinterest-worthy or keep up with Joneses in order to enjoy your holiday season and bless your guests! You don't have to be the "hostess with the mostest!"

This video changed my whole hosting process for the holidays. It was so much less stressful, changed my hosting life!!! Thank you!

@NatalieBennett Год назад

Oh this makes me sooooo happy!!! Thanks for getting back to us with this feedback! ♥️

@wendyhowell4119 Год назад

Oh Natalie, that was such a fun video to do! You have THE best friends here, they are so kind. Loved hanging out with everyone this morning in the chat. I want to leave this verse right here: Psalm 90:17 "And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us, And establish the work of our hands for us;" Our work can be a reflection of God's beauty! 😊

@AlwaysAnna77 Год назад

Thank you for the verse and for your advice and encouragement. Best wishes for you and your website. I'm excited about it ☺️

@NatalieBennett Год назад

Love you, mama! Thanks for all you shared with us!

@jenniferwright8355 Год назад

Here is a sad example, I kept my other comment happy. My mother was a hoarder, even when we still lived in apartments. Boxes and boxes of decor, gifts, serving dishes, etc. They were never used. They were for "someday" which never came. She passed away in 2021, and we had to get rid of her storage lockers full of stuff. She never was able to hostess the way she wanted, or to bring the happiness that she believed would go with it. Friends, by the time we can afford to have all of the stuff, our children are away and our family has passed on. Enjoy the NOW. 😀❤👍

@karaclark7610 Год назад

I always get so excited when your mom joins one of your videos. She is kind, humble, and intelligent with a vast amount of wisdom! Thank you for sharing her knowledge and joy with us! ☺️

@johannabennetts64 Год назад

Oh goodness, you ladies are singing my song 😂 before my husband and I were married, I threw him an open house when he graduated from chiropractic college. My future mother-in-law found my table diagram in the kitchen and thought it was so weird she had to show her sister. I’m glad she still let her son marry me despite my nerdiness 🤓 And I’m glad I’m not alone! God has greatly blessed your family with a beautiful legacy, and it is an inspiration. 💛💛

@DansonforJoy Год назад

“But does it smell like paper?” 😂 Your mom and I are kindred spirits. 🥰

@micheles4635 Год назад

As someone who often gets caught up in the need to “keep up” - this video was so refreshing. I have been trying to embrace simplicity and so many influencer content makes me feel like I’m not doing enough.

@ThisMamasHouse Год назад

Love Mama Wendy so much. Been following her for years. Unfortunately my mother is estranged and seeing this beautiful relationship between the two of you, gives me hope for the future with my daughters ❤

@NatalieBennett Год назад

God is so good and is in the business of reconciliation and healing. I pray for your relationship with your daughters. You’ve already broken the cycle and I’m proud of you! We have experience with estrangement on Weston’s side and it’s heartbreaking. Not our choice at all and we pray every day God will fully restore relationships and bring people closer to Him!

@ThisMamasHouse Год назад

@@NatalieBennett Amen! 🙏🏼

@annewhittemore3771 Год назад

Same! I’m hoping for our 3rd child to be a girl, but I realized the other day that I feel nervous about being the mom in the mother-daughter relationship. I don’t feel like I have a clear picture of what it can look like. But if it is a girl this time I’m sure I’ll realize it’s totally different and natural when it’s your own kid! I have been shocked at the bond with my boys and I’m sure it will be similar with a girl! Just brings up a lot of feelings!

@bindibelesky384 Год назад

Thank you for sharing about hosting. I don't know exactly why, but I always viewed hosting as a chore, a drag, like someone drew the short straw. It was all complaining and discomfort and i had never really considered or been exposed to your positive perspective on it. I am so grateful for the way this has changed my entire understanding of hosting.

@asmaa_vlog_85 Год назад

When I get a notification that you have uploaded a video, my happy time begins 📸❣️🍊♥️🥳😘🥰🤩❤️

I just have to say, your mother seems so sweet and she has great advice! I love listening to both of you ❤️

@nicholemaclean1888 Год назад

This was one of the most lovely things I’ve seen on RU-vid ❤ I really enjoy your channel any day but your mom is such a lovely, gracious, well spoken woman. Would love to see her again on your channel!

@carolyn1580 Год назад

I SO APPRECIATE your kind reminders this time of year especially that peace and being content with what you have, are the MOST beautiful ‘decorations’. 😉

@itsclauds7554 Год назад

I am 23 and have just started to host my own parties for friends and families! I’ve noticed during hosting there’s SO many things I didn’t think of until it came up in the moment. I really like your ideas of planning, keeping notes, etc and reusing them once you nail it down. People make it look so effortless but now I realize many people put so much time and thought into the process!

@irismckay6472 6 месяцев назад

As a boomer mom, I love watching these kinds of mother-daughter entertaining videos. Entertaining can be a lot of work, even when you've got these great hacks, but at home parties are so important to keeping us all connected. Great video! xxoo

@elizabethreighley8483 Год назад

I love it when you do collaborations with your mama, she is the second mom all of us need in our lives 🥰🤩

@jennburk Год назад

I just love your mom! She has such a sweet and kind spirit. I like to get my kids involved by having them greet guests at the door with enthusiasm ☺️

@byebyebingeing Год назад

This was a very helpful video on hosting as we are having everyone over for Thanksgiving. We're excited to have others in our home and bless them with food & fellowship! :) It all comes from the heart.

@ameliasfrugallife Год назад

Your mum is the sweetest! 🌻💛🌻

@ginamommy Год назад

I really needed this. I am the youngest in my family and everyone has done their years of hosting and we just moved a few years ago into a bigger house. So it seems that now the hosting (of everything) has fallen to me. No one on my side or my husbands side wants to host anymore and I have a really bad attitude about it. I was extremely stressed on Thanksgiving. It all turned out in the end but I wasn’t happy. My daughter said I was “volun-told” to have Thanksgiving and Christmas. I really need to have a change of heart because I was very grumpy. Thanks for not just giving tips but also for talking about that aspect of it too. Your mom is so sweet! Thanks for the video.

@tanyadelainey3310 Год назад

I love it when your mom is in the videos. She is such a sweet lady.

@elizabethlobdell8090 Год назад

I am SO excited for your mom! And I think these are my favorite videos you put out. This gave me such a great perspective on what it means to be a good hostess, especially since I am hosting my family for Christmas!

@ariyaelle Год назад

Thank you for the tips as always! This was really helpful, especially when starting with the essentials and hosting 101. Excited for your mom’s new website! Appreciate you taking us along with your thought process.

@sarahoram9616 Год назад

I loved this so much! There is so much wisdom from those who came before us. The heart of the matter was an important reminder for me! ❤

I loved mom’s, “but it smell like paper!” In reference to your iPad “notebook.” This is so special Natalie & Momma. Thanks for sharing❤

@curlycurly004u 7 месяцев назад

so sweet the two of you!!! Good advise!

@xchurricane Год назад

I adore these mom chats! It's so hard every year around the holidays now that my mom is no longer here, but I feel welcomed in your little family with these chats. Thank you! ❤️

@lavikaagarwal6759 Год назад

You are such a beautiful positive vibe!!! I will always remember “feeling blessed, not stressed “. It’s just the perspective, and life feels so much more joyous.

@morgan.mccrea Год назад

Ummmmm I am literally SWOONING over this video! Your hosting content has always been my favorite, followed closely by the chats with your mom 🥰 congratulations Wendy!! Can’t wait to see your little corner of the world get a little bit wider!

@katmccoy34 Год назад

Great video! I always love when you have your momma on! Can't wait for her website to launch! I'm loved the hostess tips. I'm not hosting the holidays but I will definitely carry these ideas over into the spring and my kids bdays!

@MarySmith-zn5dz Год назад

You were both a pleasure to watch together. I always thought I was the only one who kept notes like this for holiday entertaining. Thank you for the Bible verse! God bless your new website.

@psycprofessor4997 Год назад

@saraanne9127 Год назад

Love this so much!! I love your channel and am so excited for your mom’s site 😍

@madelinelajoie9127 Год назад

I always love watching the videos of you chatting with your mom. My mom was never in my life and still isn’t till this day. I wish so much that I had a relationship similar to this, but I realize I at least can cultivate a strong bond with my own daughter so she never feels the same way. So that when she’s older we have a great connection like this! 🤍 loved the video!

@courtneysweat8213 Год назад

I really appreciated you and your mom doing this video. I have hosted many times. But never have thought to keep a notebook. That is one thing that will definitely be going on my list to start doing this year. I'm excited to check out your mom's website once it fully launches.

@sam.hai2754 Год назад

Excited I could join this morning.

@gypsybelle4757 Год назад

I’m starting my holiday notebook this year! Thank you both!! Great idea.

@bethmartin6270 Год назад

Love the tip to go back into the notebook and write down what worked and what didn't! I've kept notes from prior years' events but had not thought to add that! Excited to see the content on the new site! #homegrownonpurpose

@Miriam-qb4cr Год назад

Natalie, such a good video!! Your mum is inspiring and I have great respect for her. Your remendations are great. I host every year since I got married. I’ve got many children. My parents live in a apartment in the city and It’s difficult to park. My sister is single and come for the holidays and my uncles and aunts live next to me as I live in the suburbs. It’s a huge work, I sometimes apologized about it in the past. COVID-19 changed it all. For the first time in two years I’m hosting my whole family again and I feel blessed. Thank you for your tips. It’s a great new, your mom’s website. I’ll be there!!! Sending love and Hugs from Madrid, Spain ❤🌹

Natalie, I"M YOUR MOTHER but probably more than 25 years older! She is doing, and has done for years, the very same things as i have found vital to host a special meal with family and friends and guests. You have a great role model and i know you have already followed in her footsteps. Blessings! Thankful for you both!

@dinky.. Год назад

I loved this!! Biggest takeaways for me zi think are to enjoy it (it's not about being perfect!) and practically, to take notes and clear off work surfaces before starting on a big day of cooking (why have I never thought of that!! I enjoyed watching and listening to you both SO MUCH. THANK YOU 💕❤ Also, really looking forward to home grown on purpose 💕⭐🙏
