Company Christmas Party Venue Ideas

By: Kerry Beck

It's the Christmas holidays, and you decide to invite your friends over for a Christmas party. Here are the best company Christmas party ideas

Have the fireplace lit up; play your favorite Christmas tune; nail a mistletoe on every doorway, and the party can begin. Depending on the number of people you've invited, you will either pick a buffet or a conventional sit-down meal. Most popular is the buffet. If you have a buffet, write out invitations saying: "Bring a Dish to Share".

What's Nice To Serve On The Buffet?

A 12 foot hero or sub is a safe enough choice. Served either hot or cold, it's enough to feed everyone. Alternatively, you can make your own creation and tell everyone beforehand to bring something they make. Popular side dishes are: stuffed mushrooms; chicken or turkey rolls, or bite-sized appetizers which come in a wide assortment of flavors. Have a wide variety of wines, colas, water, and don't forget eggnog.

How will your food be served?

Set up a separate table in your dining room or living room. Place all of the foods on the table. Add Christmas paper plates, napkins, and your good flatware at the beginning of the table. This way, your guests can take a paper dish, napkin and utensil and proceed directly to the food. Tip: This makes cleaning up easier for you, too.

Now to make your dining table appealing to the eyes, here are some tips. Use a tablecloth made of solid colors; either green, red or white. Put a Christmas placemat under each dish. Your centerpiece can be a crystal bowl filled with Christmas balls. Beside the centerpiece, put a pair Christmas candles. One way to make your tablecloth stand out is to pin garland at the edges of the tablecloth.

How About Party Games?

After the buffet and dessert, it's time for some party games. Adults may enjoy charades or a Christmas sing-a-long. Or you could play musical chairs with a twist. Have the men get down on one knee, while the women walk around them to the tune of jingle bells. When the music stops, each woman has to sit on a man's knee. This game is so much fun, that your guests will laugh until they cry.

And lastly, there is no Christmas without a Santa Claus. Have someone wear a Santa villian costume. Make him wear white hair and mustache that reaches his nose. He can give away small gift packs or anything nice. All this will surely make your Christmas party a well remembered one.
