A FEW TIPS FOR PLANNING YOUR EVENT

What venue should we hold our event at?
Depending on the number of people attending your function there are several options
open to you. If you are a small company, you may want to consider joining one of the many
excellent shared Christmas/Holiday parties being held throughout Canada in a wide
variety of fantastic venues and locations. These small business packages are usually held
by Hotels, Chamber of Commerces or Community Organizations. These party packages
provide a Dinner/Show featuring either comedy, murder mystery or band/dancing that
staff will love, but still be cost effective. Treat your staff to something different from the
usual meal out at a local restaurant and they will really feel appreciated.

If you are entertaining 50+ staff, shared Christmas/Holiday parties are still an excellent
option as many cater for large numbers, but it may be time to look at hiring a venue for
your company's exclusive use. You can choose from hotel banquet rooms, private clubs,
community halls etc. it really depends on the atmosphere you want for your event and of
course, your budget

What about location?
Think about where your guests are traveling from. Do you want a city centre location or
somewhere out of town. Will you need to organize transport or even overnight
accommodation? Who is going to pay for the transportation/accommodations, the
company? Again, it comes down to your budget.

How much do I need to spend?
This is entirely dependent on your budget. You can spend upwards of $50 per head to join a
shared Christmas?Holiday party where your guests will eat well and party to the small
hours (drinks will be extra). The sky is the limit on an exclusive Christmas/Holiday party.

The party atmosphere
Do you want a wild party atmosphere with the emphasis on dancing and drinking? Or
something a little more low-key, perhaps a sophisticated dining experience in intimate
surroundings? Or somewhere in between where your guests can enjoy a good meal, watch
some entertainment and then dance the night away?

Dress code
Most shared Christmas/Holiday parties request smart dress (no jeans or running shoes),
some offer the option of semi formal dress. For your exclusive Christmas/Holiday party you
may want to make an occasion of it and go for formal to semi formal dress (it gives
everyone a chance to dress up from their normal day) or color themed dress (black and
white, sparkles, red, etc.), or simply dress to impress.
