These 5 Kitchen Appliances Have Become Our Must-Have Entertaining Essentials

After more than a year of virtual birthday parties, graduation celebrations, and even weddings, we are thrilled to begin the return to hosting once again. It's high-time to refresh that party closet, find inspiration for outdoor entertaining, and show your guest rooms some love. It's also time to consider the state of your appliances.

Though our houses may not have been full of cocktail party guests or extended family for holiday brunches this year, our kitchen appliances have been hard at work nourishing our families, keeping our dishes sparkling clean, and chilling those much-needed bottles of our favorite French vino. Now, they're about to be the secret behind our hosting prowesses, creating lavish experiences for overnight guests and making post-party clean up and preparations alike a breeze. Here are our favorites to consider next time you're looking to upgrade your kitchen.
