Tips for Planning the Perfect Christmas Day

My, my, my. What a year it’s been. The turbulent rollercoaster that is 2020 is now beginning to come to the end of its bumpy ride and slow down from lightning speed, arriving peacefully and (hopefully) smoothly at our favourite time of year - the festive season.

The world may never be the same after the global events of 2020, but if that means one thing, it’s now the time to embrace new traditions and have a Christmas like never before. 

With everything this year has thrown your way, your family and friends deserve to have a fantastic Christmas that’s full of the happiness, joy and laughter as any other Christmas would be, even though it may look a little different with less people at your Christmas dinner table.

It's time for festivities with a twist

However, the 2020 festive season is the time for festivities with a twist. You may not be able to have all the usual suspects at your Christmas dinner table, but will you set a tableware place for the laptop that has them calling in via Zoom?

See below some tips from Wedgwood on how to create that perfect Christmas day.
