Planning Your Greensboro Corporate Holiday Party

Planning a corporate holiday party can definitely be a bit daunting. There’s so much to consider such as budget, decor, timing, venues, food, drinks, and entertainment to name a few! Your employees (and you!) work hard all year long, and now you deserve to celebrate all of that with a successful, fun corporate party! But wait… where do you start? How do you plan the perfect holiday party? Luckily, planning and executing amazing events in Greensboro is exactly what we do here at Rev Mill Events!

While yes, we specialize in weddings, we also love creating your perfect corporate holiday party! Keep reading to find our top tips to give you and your colleagues an event to remember!

CHOOSE YOUR THEME & DECOR

Try not to overthink this part of the planning process. When it comes down to it, you already have a built in theme! It is a holiday party after all, right? Keep it simple. Add some holiday music, decor in your color and theme choice plus a few small festive touches. Keep in mind too, we take care of all of the details. With just a few questions answered on your part, we will take care of the rest for you and make your party dreams come to life. We are fully committed to giving the best experience possible for you and your guests.

Want a little extra? Consider a theme for your event such as Winter Wonderland, Ugly Christmas Sweater, Rustic Woodlands, Christmas Masquerade Ball or Santa’s Workshop. Create an amazing guest experience by tying the theme into all the details. Of course, starting with a beautiful venue doesn’t hurt!

CREATE A GUEST LIST

Yes it’s a corporate party, so of course you’re inviting employees. What about their spouses and families? Adults only or are kids welcome? We have multiple options for your corporate party location… The Colonnade, Color Works Room 1 and Color Works Room 2. Ask us about the capacity and vibe of each when discussing your event!

CHOOSE YOUR ENTERTAINMENT

Entertainment is a must for any event! Will your corporate party be a small cocktail-style event? Simply having some great background music playing may be the way to go. Create your own playlist or find just what you need on a music streaming service. Want to go bigger? We can assist you with hiring a DJ or band that has experience entertaining at a corporate event and keeping it classy (remember, you have to see these people on Monday morning!). Think about adding interactive games, a photo booth, giveaways, or visits with Santa!

CHOOSE YOUR MENU

Typically when people attend a party, they’re usually expecting food and fun! This is where having your corporate holiday party here at Revolution Mill really shines. We love to help create the perfect party menu for you with our in-house food and beverage service. Do you want a formal feel? Then consider a plated dinner with table-side wine service. If you’re looking to get guests to mix and mingle, then plan for a buffet or heavy hors d’oeuvres stations. Add fun accents like a hot chocolate or fresh apple cider bar with seasonal mix ins. Don’t forget dessert with classics such as cheesecake or a variety of holiday themed cookies and pastries. We love partnering with you to create custom menus for all kinds of social occasions!

A FEW EXTRA TIPS

Friday and Saturday evenings in December always book up fast, so you’ll want to secure those dates well in advance. Are you working with a limited budget? Select a weekday or consider a January “Kick off the New Year Party” when prices are usually lower.
