6 tips to spruce up your Christmas event styling
Our favourite time of the year is just around the very, merry corner. Are you ready for the magic?
Whether you are hosting a friends and family affair or responsible for your workplace celebrations, the options for styling up your Christmas event are limitless.
To make it easier for you, here’s our top 6 tips to style your Christmas event to perfection.
Personalisation equals perfection
With smaller groups, personalising elements such as stationary is a simple and impactful way to elevate the occasion. Taking your standard dinner party setting, add in place cards, printed menus or placemats with your menu on them.
Add sparkle
Christmas is all about magic, so making sure it translates to your tablescape is key! We love to do this with candles… and if you know us, you know that we have a firm belief of the more the better. Load the centre of your table up and let it shine.
3. Level up your furniture
One of the best ways to make a difference with your styling is to unify the furniture. A couple of cocktail tables, a set of chairs or a textured lounge that enables a photo opportunity will go a long way to add that flair you are seeking!
4. Colour Colour Colour
Christmas brings with it a traditional colour palette of red and green, with support from white, gold and silver. While we love the options that come from this, we also love the ability to tie in a business’ branding. Blend the traditional palette with your logo colouring and wow your guests with the result!
5. Everyone loves a photo op
For larger groups, a photo opportunity is a must. There are so many options when it comes to the perfect backdrop, be it Balloons, Florals, Signage… Whichever direction you go, make sure that it over the top and fun. Just like Christmas is!
6. Festive food and beverages
Styling doesn’t have to be limited to the décor, carry your theme through to your catering. Personalised swizzle sticks and cocktail napkins with your logo or initials are impactful ways to add to the event.
We also love the idea of developing signature Chrissy cocktails to get the festivities started! Name them after your theme or for a business, your services – then add this list of creations to your personalised bar menu. It’s a sure fire way to get your guests talking.
