Housewarming Party - For Buyers only?

My BFF had a party when she rented an awesome condo... just do it and screw other people it is still a house.. your house.. and a party is always acceptable!

I've been to housewarming parties for not-so-awesome apartments! I think it's totally fine and don't see a problem with it [: Go for it!

I like it that parties is always acceptable!

Should I still call it a housewarming, or just a party then?

... I don't want to invite her either...

If you moved into a new place you can still have a housewarming party. You dont have to actually buy a place to have one. That's ridiculous. Its a new place and you are making it into a home regardless of whether you rent or bought. And whoever that is, definitely don't invite someone like that. Seems to me that person is completely stuck up. And just so you know, even if you decide not to have a registry or anything, most people will still bring something to a housewarming party whether it be a bottle of wine or some flowers. So forget her. :p <- this is my raspberry.

My FH and I had a housewarming party when we first moved into our apartment. Most of my renting friends have had housewarming parties when they've moved into their places, as well.

I have never been to a housewarming party, however, in which the hosts created a registry for it. I agree, that's very tacky.

Whenme and the FH moved into our first apt we had a house warming party. We made it known that gifts werent necessary but a lot of people brought things like wine and giftscards anyway. It was a great time!

People can be so petty! I have in the past had a house warming party for an apartment that I rented and it was great!!! I was so happy about my new home that I wanted to share it with my friends Go for it and don't invite her.

FH and i are renting a house and when we get settled we are having a house warming, not registering though, that does seem a little tacky. Go for it, and dont invite ms sissy pants

I agree house warmings are great.. no need for registry.. cause then people feel like they have to bring something rather then just bringing something to drink or eat.

I have been to several housewarming parties where people are renting, not buying. I'd say go for it, that's a perfect occasion to celebrate and get together!!

ahhhh...and dont invite her lol
