That’s why we’ve created this holiday party planning checklist to help you plan a flawless corporate holiday party that will impress from start to finish.
Whether you’re working on a festive corporate event or an upscale office holiday gathering, these key elements will ensure everything goes off without a hitch. And of course, we’ve got you covered with the best event furniture rentals, chair and table rentals, and more!
1. Comfortable Seating & Stylish Lounge Areas
One of the most important aspects of any holiday party is making sure guests feel comfortable. Creating cozy lounge areas and ensuring ample seating allows guests to relax, mingle, and enjoy the event. Make sure to plan for different types of seating, from dining tables to casual lounge spaces. We offer a range of event furniture rentals, including modular sofas, chic accent chairs, and even custom-branded seating that can add a personal touch to your client’s holiday event.
Tip: Modular furniture, like our Colette and Cascade sofas, can be arranged in custom configurations to fit your event’s layout, maximizing both comfort and style.
2. Bars & Beverage Stations
The bar is often the focal point of holiday parties, so it’s important to make sure it stands out. Whether you need a sleek, modern bar or something more festive, the right bar can elevate the event. Our customizable bar rentals can be branded with your client’s logo or themed graphics to fit the holiday spirit, adding an extra layer of personalization to the event.
Tip: Consider our Ave or Chandler bars, which can be customized with a cane insert, a glowing front panel, or custom signage, making them perfect for corporate holiday branding.
3. Tables & Dining Essentials
For corporate events where meals or formal dining are involved, high-quality chair and table rentals are essential. Ensure you have the right mix of dining tables, communal tables, and cocktail tables to suit the guest list and event style. Don’t forget the chairs—elegant dining chairs and stylish barstools can elevate the overall design and ensure your seating arrangement complements the rest of the décor.
4. Custom Branding & Signage
For corporate holiday events, branded elements are a must. Custom-branded furniture, signage, and bars add a professional and polished touch, ensuring the event is not only memorable but also on-brand. At Epic Party Team, we specialize in custom branding for our rentals—whether you need your company’s logo on a bar or branded arcade games, we can make it happen.
Tip: Custom branding doesn’t have to stop at bars and signage. Branded arcade rentals are an interactive way to engage guests while reinforcing your client’s brand.
