That means before you know it you are going to start getting questions about the company Holiday Party. If you are the one planning it you better put on your thinking cap and come up with an idea.

Black tie optional.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\">Start out with a red carpet and hire a photographer to play paparazzi.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\">Don\u2019t have cocktail hour in a separate room, have the bars in the main room so people will mingle as they find their seats.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\">Set the table. Instead of passed hor d\u2019oeuvers or stations, pre-set the tables with the appetizer course. Have filled champagne buckets within reach.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\">Hire a comedian or DJ with a humorous flair to MC the event. Have them or someone in the company do a brief, funny monologue and introduce the \u201cpresenters\u201d while everyone enjoys a five-star dinner.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\">Set up a photo backdrop with your logo, just like the awards shows, and have the evening&#8217;s recipients pose with their awards. Those photos will look great in next months newsletter.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\">Now you go to a separate room for the \u201cafter party\u2019\u2019. Dance floor, music, dessert bar, lounge seating, swag bags, the whole nine yards. Everyone is relaxed, in a great mood and ready to have fun.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By setting the tone and flipping the cocktail hour to an after party you have changed everything up. Definitely stepped it up a notch.<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for some other interesting ideas to change up your Company Christmas Party then read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leonardspalazzo.com\/have-your-company-holiday-party-in-january\/\">this<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.leonardspalazzo.com\/plan-companys-holiday-party-long-island\/\">this<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your Company Christmas Party is right around the corner!
