As the sound of chimes and the smell of roasting chestnuts fill the air, you know for a fact that December is coming, and the year-end party is just around the corner.Ā Ā If youāve been tasked to take charge of the office party for this year, things may not seem too wonderful for you, though.Ā Ā Donāt despair as help is on its way.Ā Ā Here are some tips on how to throw an office year-ender party:
Ā
Ā ĀYou can start taking a quick survey of who among the employees are available on the date of the party.Ā Ā This will pretty much give you an idea of how many mouths you have to feed, and how big a venue you should get.
Ā
Decide on the theme of your party.Ā Ā Do you want to have a luau, or maybe an 80ās party?
Ā
The most important thing is food (and drinks!).Ā Ā It can make or break your party.Ā Ā Long after the excitement has died down, people will always remember how good- or bad- the food was.Ā Ā Depending on your budget, decide whether your having a sit down or buffet style dinner.Ā Ā Carefully choose whoever will provide the food.Ā Ā For instance, if youāre GooglingĀ Catering company London- VisitĀ www.dewintons.co.ukĀ and thoroughly go through their menu.
ā
If ever you decide to go potluck then there are a number of easy recipes you can make a list of whatās easy on the bite and would require less time to prepare. Try meatballs, smoked salmon on biscuits, pizza bites, crab cakes, sausage puffs ā which you can all prepare in bite size pieces.
A party isnāt a party without fun and games.Ā Ā You can probably get a group of people to help you come up with unique games.Ā Ā Be sure the games do not offend any religion or ethnic group.Ā Ā And then you can hire a DJ or band to play some music which people can dance to.
It helps to have a checklist of things youāre supposed to do in planning the party.Ā Ā As you tick things off the list, youāll have a greater sense of accomplishment.Ā Ā All thatās left for you to do then is to party hard.
