Festive parties in the anticipation of the New Year start on December 31.These noisy, happy celebrations have their roots in the early beliefs of pagan people who believed evil spirits were all around. To prevent these spirits from entering the New Year, it was common to ring the church bells, causing a ruckus.

Today both formal and informal parties and dinner dances, including masquerade balls, are also traditional activities during the evening. This wide variety of activities invites an equally broad range of floral arrangements for formal gatherings. New Year’s Eve bouquets can also reflect fun-loving celebrations with the addition of many accessories, including glittery party hats, and horns, balloons, confetti and streamers.
