housewarmings
Parties for relocators
Housewarmings are parties celebrating a move into a new home.
The host invites friends and family to see the new place, and guests typically bring small gifts for the household: We've been to three housewarmings this month.
The singular housewarming usually appears as an attributive noun: housewarming party, housewarming gift.
