Each family will follow their unique traditions that might've been around for generations. However, the custom has a number of common features and practices that all families follow.\r\n\r\nPlanning the dinner may sound easy. All you have to do is plan what to cook and let everyone know, right?\r\n\r\nBut ask anybody who has organised a family reunion and you'll likely get the opposite answer. They'll definitely agree that it's the most stressful and taxing part of Chinese New Year. The whole process requires a lot of meticulous planning that usually begins weeks beforehand.\r\n\r\nThe stress is amplified if there are family members abroad and even more so if the organisers are working. To help you host the reunion without as much stress and hiccups, here are some ways you can hold the reunion.\r\n<h3>Reunion On Water<\/h3>\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_7700\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7700\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bemyguest.com.sg\/dp\/singapore\/sentosa\/royal-albatross-chinese-new-year-reunion-dinner-and-cruise-2018\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7700\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/183b6c33-ef5d-4905-9353-361bdd1d54c6.jpg\" alt=\"Reunion Dinner on Cruise\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/183b6c33-ef5d-4905-9353-361bdd1d54c6.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/183b6c33-ef5d-4905-9353-361bdd1d54c6-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/183b6c33-ef5d-4905-9353-361bdd1d54c6-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/183b6c33-ef5d-4905-9353-361bdd1d54c6-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/183b6c33-ef5d-4905-9353-361bdd1d54c6-265x198.jpg 265w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/183b6c33-ef5d-4905-9353-361bdd1d54c6-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/183b6c33-ef5d-4905-9353-361bdd1d54c6-560x420.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7700\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credits: Bemyguest.com.sg<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nThis is undeniably one of the most unique ways to hold a reunion dinner.

The greenery and scenery. Who doesn't like em'?\r\n\r\nSpice up your reunion dinner plans this year by holding it outdoors! Picnics are a (relatively) comfortable and cozy affair. With an abundance of lavish spots available for you to choose from, you'll certainly be spoiled for choice. Home-cooked or take outs, it's your choice. The casual and laid-back environment will make it an extra special occasion.\r\n\r\nBut if you don't enjoy the laid-back and casual environment, here's how you can go one step further.\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_7706\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7706\" style=\"width: 1250px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7706\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3556e7_79934548bae04c1d84216ad487fc9f39_mv2-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1250\" height=\"833\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3556e7_79934548bae04c1d84216ad487fc9f39_mv2-1.jpeg 1250w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3556e7_79934548bae04c1d84216ad487fc9f39_mv2-1-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3556e7_79934548bae04c1d84216ad487fc9f39_mv2-1-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3556e7_79934548bae04c1d84216ad487fc9f39_mv2-1-1024x682.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3556e7_79934548bae04c1d84216ad487fc9f39_mv2-1-696x464.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3556e7_79934548bae04c1d84216ad487fc9f39_mv2-1-1068x712.jpeg 1068w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/3556e7_79934548bae04c1d84216ad487fc9f39_mv2-1-630x420.jpeg 630w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1250px) 100vw, 1250px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7706\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credits: Glamping City<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n<em>Glamping<\/em>.

But how about a reunion dinner on a cable-car? This idea is only feasible if your family is small. Big families won't be able to have this option for them. It's no doubt a novel idea and it'll get heads turning in awe and jealousy.\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #111111; font-family: Roboto, sans-serif; font-size: 22px;\">On The Go<\/span>\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_7709\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7709\" style=\"width: 605px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/redtri.com\/meet-your-new-obsession-bobs-red-mills-oatmeal-cups\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7709\" src=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/bobs-carride.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"403\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/bobs-carride.jpg 605w, https:\/\/carro.co\/sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/bobs-carride-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7709\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credits: Red Tricycle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nIt might seem a bit farfetched but the car is the only place where a family will stay united and move forward together. However, traditional food is out of the equation here. To hold your reunion dinner in a car, you'd have to order take out! Additionally, you won't be able to fit your entire family in the car. Unless you're driving a lorry.\r\n\r\nWherever and however you choose to hold your reunion dinner, the most important thing is to remember why there's this dinner in the first place. It's to spend time with your family and bond, get together and become closer.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<pre>People also liked:\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/coolest-car-features-show-off-cny\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COOLEST CAR FEATURES TO SHOW OFF DURING CHINESE NEW YEAR<\/a>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/future-transport-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">THE FUTURE OF TRANSPORT IN SINGAPORE<\/a>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/carro.sg\/blog\/making-life-easier-5-car-accessories-disabled-people\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MAKING LIFE EASIER WITH 5 CAR ACCESSORIES FOR DISABLED PEOPLE<\/a><\/pre>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Undoubtedly the most important part of Chinese New Year is the reunion dinner.
