How to plan the perfect holiday party

Holidays are such an exciting time, and there’s so much to think about! So take a note of the following:

• Location - you’re in for a treat because Dallas offers plenty of attractions during December, you won’t know where to go first! Plan your holiday party near one of these festive locations, and enjoy the sights and amusements while you can! Check out Enchant Christmas in Fair Park, where you can see a maze of lights, Santa, an ice skating rink and much more! Give your little ones a magical experience at the Dallas Zoo, where the whole place turns into a lit-up winter wonderland.  An enchanting oasis with Christmas decorations is waiting for you in East Dallas. See over one million illuminating lights in the Arboretum, which is surely a magical experience for the whole family. Booking a venue near one of these locations is going to make your holiday experience one to remember for a long time. 
• Date - decide on the date of the party. Maybe it’s important to you that the party is as near Christmas as possible? Or perhaps you would prefer to have it at the beginning of December instead? Whatever your pick, make sure to consult with your guests if the date suits them all. As soon as you decide which day you’d like the party to be, book the venue to secure a space for your special dinner. You wouldn’t want to wait until the last minute - you never know who might take your place!
• Theme - if the place allows it, have as much fun with the decorations as you wish. If you’re booking a private space, then this shouldn’t be too much of a problem as long as you’re not throwing confetti and glitter around. Make your holiday party venue that much more fun with typical Christmas decorations (check with the restaurant - maybe they already have some). Plan a dress up party, and have people come in as Santa, Rudolf or the Grinch. Do you have an inside joke which would make a good party theme? It’s the season to be merry, so have fun!
• Budget - what’s your price range for this party? Most restaurants will have a minimum spend or a price per person. Decide which option is better for your festive gathering. Also, find out who or how many people are covering the cost. If it’s possible for you to split the bill with someone else, you’ll be able to have a wider range of venue choices.
• Guests - who are you planning to invite? Make a list and invite all the important people for this merry event. If it’s a corporate holiday party - are you inviting all the employees, certain teams, or just the managers and heads of the company? If it’s a family gathering, then is it small, or will you be inviting the extended family for a bigger celebration? Make sure you get all the guests to RSVP, and do it quickly as well. Knowing the guest list size will ensure that you  don’t wind up paying for those who are not planning to attend. 
• Menu - what types of food would you like to have on this particular evening? Is traditional Christmas food exactly what you wish? Or would you like to eat something more exotic, or just different from typical Christmas food? As always, make sure to ask your guests for any allergies or food preferences. Have some vegan and vegetarian options available also. 

Holiday party venues in Dallas are getting booked more frequently during this celebratory time, so get going and snag a venue ASAP. Prepare for cheesy Christmas music, delicious food, beautiful decor and memories which will last for a long time.
