December is coming and that means only one thing: party time! We have put together the best ideas for Christmas and New Year's Eve to make sure it is a great success. Whether you are looking for the best Christmas decorations or everything you need for a sparkling New Year's Eve party, get inspired with this blog full of tips for the most enjoyable time of the year!
Everything you need for an unforgettable Christmas
1. A Santa costume
Christmas is obviously not complete without a Santa costume! With Santa suits in different shapes and sizes, there is always a suitable costume. There is a professional Santa suit for those who like to take things seriously, a funny costume for the jokers and there are fun children's costumes for the little ones. So there are plenty of options. And of course, don't forget the Santa bag for all the presents!
2. Funny headwear for the family
Christmas is all about family and fun. So how fun is it to add a touch of humour to Christmas dinner by giving the whole family a funny tiara or hat? With a varied range from reindeer antlers to Christmas trees, make sure everyone goes wild. Guaranteed hilarious family photos!
3. Christmas games
And if the family is already in a jolly mood because of the funny headwear, you might as well have a fun game. Think Christmas bingo, roulette or a drinking game. With some fun party items as prizes, everyone is sure to participate fanatically.
4. Christmas decorations
Decorations make the party complete. Red, green and gold are the perfect colours for Christmas. Go for a red carpet to welcome the guests, sparkling disco balls and eye-catching Santa hats as decoration and finish it off with decorative buntings and garlands.
Let the Christmas party begin!
Make NYE grand and legendary
After the cosy Christmas, the next big party is already around the corner: New Year's Eve! Everyone is getting ready to make it a smashing party, but what exactly does a party need to be so epic that people will be talking about it for a long time? We have listed some tips for you.
1. A theme
For the ultimate party experience, it is of course great to give the NYE party a theme. A hilarious theme like a bad taste party or a classy theme like Glitter & Glamour are perfect for this! The anticipation that starts weeks in advance makes it extra fun. And let's be honest; when everyone is dressed up, the tone is immediately set right?
2. Drinking games
What is New Year's Eve without fun drinking games? Beer pong, shot roulette or basket shot are the perfect games to make the evening extra crazy. And with some creativity, you can put your own (non-alcoholic) twist on it too.
3. Photo props
Photos are a great way to capture the memories of an ‘epic night’. Therefore, photo props are a great addition to the party. Think Happy New Year hats, tiaras and glasses, but boas, wigs and photo props on sticks are also perfect for the funniest photos. Especially as the evening progresses, everyone will loosen up and the photos will become more and more laughable.
4. Decorations
Decoration is essential for any party. From shiny buntings, table skirts and carpets to festive plates and golden glasses. New Year's Eve is all about chic, which is why gold and silver are always popular colours. And don't forget the number balloons to announce the new year, the confetti cannons for the 12 o'clock moment and an eye-catching backdrop for the best photos.
So, now you have all the ingredients to make it a roaring success. Make sure you are ready for the holidays and give your customers everything they need to make this month unforgettable.
