We are fast approaching the silly season and here at Little Gray Station we couldn't be more excited! Organising your work Christmas party may seem like a daunting task, but having organised a few of these in our time we thought we would put together a few simple tips for those in the early planning stages.
1. Pick your date + venue: These two go hand in hand! Visit the likely venues in your area taking into consideration number of guests, location and budget.
2. Choose the style of your event: Sit down dinner? Cocktails and canapรฉs? Or something totally unique! Either way this will have a big impact on the look and flow of the evening.
3. Theme: Once you have your venue locked in and the style of the evening you can get started on the fun part! If your venue has a defined style then make sure that whatever you select fits in well with this venue. However if you are holding your Christmas party in a conference hall, a marquee or a relatively neutral venue then you can be creative!
We personally love a subdued colour palette for Christmas, drawing on natural elements and referencing the beautiful Australian climate. Like these beautiful images below:
