Our No-Stress Guide to a Family Reunion in Anaheim!

It’s summertime, which means it’s time for family reunions. Family reunions can be a lot to handle and a lot of work goes into them. Between the planning and all your relatives, it can seem more like a chore rather than a party. No guide can ever be perfect, but here are some tips that may be helpful to make sure the event goes over clean and smooth.

Pick Your Destination.

Consider someplace warm, that way everyone can be outside. One of the best destinations would be a family reunion in Anaheim, California. The best family reunion I went to was by the ocean. We got to hangout on the beach, play volleyball, and swim in the ocean. It was relaxing even with all the family around. If you’re not a beach person, there are so many other activities going on in the area.  Give Mickey, Minnie and the rest of the gang a shout out right around the corner at Disneyland!  There are so many rides and shows it will keep the family going all day long.

Think Location.

Once you have the destination in mind, try to determine the best location. This is probably one of the most stressful parts about the party. However, a simple solution would be restaurants. Think about it. You don’t have to cook, décor isn’t necessary, and you won’t have to worry about the cleanup. It’s a breeze. Going into the picking process for the event, you have to find someplace with an exciting and entertaining atmosphere. There are several Disney restaurants in the area but none could fit the family fun atmosphere like FiRE+iCE Anaheim. Located in the Anaheim Garden Walk, FiRE+iCE Anaheim is large enough to fit your entire family because of the outdoor and indoor seating. Plus, the outdoor patio has a large  fire pit which is great to warm up next to on cool nights. Big tip, don’t forget to make reservations, especially with large parties. Avoid the wait for as long as possible. 

Food, food, & more food.

This can probably be the trickiest part of the whole family reunion. Trying to satisfy everyone’s tastes and cravings can be impossible. Bringing a new experience to dining, here at FiRE+iCE Anaheim we let each meal be customized to serve your individual taste buds. No matter the craving there is surely something that everyone will enjoy. This all-you-can-eat Anaheim spot goes beyond a typical “buffet.” Rather than pre-made food sitting in trays, every ingredient is on ice waiting to be made into a creation. We have unlimited flavors from every region of the globe: Latin, Asian, Italian, and American flavors. No matter how picky  your family is , our grill has something for everyone. My favorite concoction would be stir fry. Combining rice, snap peas, eggs, carrots, and chicken and tossing it all in a tangy soy sauce. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

Wrap it all up.

Family reunions in Anaheim are great for making lasting memories. After dinner bring the family back to the park to end the night with Disneyland Forever Fireworks. The best spot to see the fireworks in my opinion is on Main Street U.S.A. The vivid projections on the building and a straight shot view of the castle makes an amazing spot. Take the opportunity to have your event away from your home. Craziness runs in most families but that doesn’t mean the party has to be.
