Sometimes you really want to celebrate in style. Here are 3 options you can employ to impress your guests.
1. HOTEL BALLROOM
One of the most grand and impressive ways to throw a bash is to rent a hotel ballroom. The cost of the ballroom varies depending on what type of hotel it is; you might pay per head, per hour or per facility used. The best thing is, you can reserve rooms above for yourself and your guests to retire to once the fête has finished!
PROS: Impressive. Ballrooms are one the most recognizable and memorable grand venues for a Christmas party, and your guests would appreciate and remember the night for a long time to come.
CONS: Expensive. The use of a hotel ballroom can cost thousands of pounds. Also, the venue might not allow outside catering, which could add to your bill.
2. PUBLIC HALL
You could always rent out a public hall or meeting space for your Christmas party. These are great options because they are often cheaper than hotel ballrooms. Make sure to book a public hall well in in advance, as they are very popular choices during the holiday season.
PROS: Location. Public halls are often centrally located and easily accessible to your guests.
CONS: Stuffy. Sometimes, public halls and buildings aren't as well decorated or luxurious as other options for your Christmas party.
3. WAREHOUSE
If you want to really wow your guests, why not rent a warehouse for the evening? Warehouses are great because you can make as much noise as you want, since they are not typically located in residential areas.
PROS: Space. Warehouses are by far the most spacious of the three options, which gives you more creative license and allows you to invite more of your friends to your grand Christmas party!
CONS: Inconvenience. As warehouses are often engineered for other purposes besides festivities, their facilities might not be well-suited to the occasion. Some examples might be a lack of a kitchen, small or few bathrooms, and limited options for lighting and decor.
