Christmas Party Tips for A Office

The work Christmas party has long held pride of place as the social event of the year. Things are winding down, uninterrupted family time is imminent and it’s a chance to engage with colleagues on a personal level that is perhaps not possible amongst the meeting of deadlines,budgets and clients. It’s a time to celebrate the passing of another year surrounded by good food, great company and a view to match.

Pick A Suitable Date

Pic a date early enough in December so that no one has to miss out celebrating with their colleagues. Some offices even have their Christmas party in January, once all the holiday madness has died down. And make sure the party is on a Friday or a Saturday; no one wants to come to work the next day with a hangover.

Define The Dress Code

Defining the dress code early on, will give your team plenty of time to think about what they are wearing. This is especially true, if there is a theme. Christmas parties are considered a big event and so people like to have time to think about what they are wearing.

Choose A Venue Well In Advance

Pretty much every office in the city will be duking it out to secure venues for their Christmas party. So, make sure you book a venue well in advance. Some offices choose to have the party on the premises itself, but that is generally a bad idea, unless you have an office that will rival those of Google or Apple. Look for venues that also provide packages that include catering and a DJ.

Food

This is the most fascinating part that the guests can be attracted through. Either you can arrange a sit down buffet or kind of light snacks depending upon the choice of your guests coming to the party. The menu has to be decided keeping in mind everyone’s needs as people generally judge your party by the kind of food you are serving.

Entertainment

Christmas party entertainment is an inseparable part of any party especially on this big day. Party themes are generally a fun form of entertainment which everyone enjoys. There are venues in which entertainment prospects are available and you can even customize them according to your requirements.
