Office party? Get planning
‘Tis the season for mulled wine, mince pies, mistletoe’ and of course, the infamous office Christmas party...
If you find yourself in charge of organising the main event of this year’s social calendar, no doubt you want to make sure it’s full of Christmas cheer. Here are a few handy tips for ensuring your Christmas party goes with a bang.
1. Get planning – now! It may feel like summer has just ended, but the best venues get booked up, fast. Make sure you get a date in everyone’s diary as early as possible, then start the all- important task of finding a venue.
2. Get out of the office No one wants to spend their Christmas party in the cramped office staff room, with the Christmas CD pumping out the same old tunes. Find a venue which is easily accessible for all, and make sure there’s the option for taxis home at the end of the night.
3. Send an invite Make it feel like a special event that people can look forward to. Make your invitation fun and eye-catching to really get people in the festive mood.
4. Decide on a theme No party is complete without a theme to tie it all together. Here’s your chance to get creative. Perhaps it’s Christmas past, or novelty hats. Or you could even plan an activity to really get everyone involved: a murder mystery dinner or wine tasting, perhaps.
5. Plan a great menu Whatever you do, remember to include enough food for the day and night. Find out your budget and look for a menu which has something for everyone. For larger groups, a buffet can be ideal, and it means people can eat whenever they’re ready.
6. Make a seating plan With large groups of people, this is often the best way to ensure everyone is happy, and you could even mix up teams and help people socialise more. Another option is to get everyone to move seats after the main course.
