When planning a holiday party, start well in advance of your target date. No matter what holiday it is, things tend to get hectic! First, set a budget, as well as a target date. Decide how many guests you're expecting. Select a gorgeous holiday party venue that will dazzle your guests. Make decisions about food, drinks, and any specific activities you want to include—but don't overschedule! Let the party unfold organically, and give guests room to mingle and socialize naturally. Make sure to send out invitations several weeks in advance since people's schedules tend to fill up quickly near the holidays.

Hosting a holiday cocktail party is about creating the right mood and selecting the right menu. Make sure your cocktail selection is informed by the holiday. Traditional Christmas cocktails, for example, include the classic Poinsettia, mulled wine, and alcoholic eggnog drinks. Your menu should usually be limited to four or five drink options at the maximum, and it's important to include a non-alcoholic option. For safety and decorum's sake, it's also a good idea to make sure food is served. When looking for the perfect holiday cocktail party venue, search out options that will help foster the atmosphere you want, whether that's cozy and intimate, swanky and upscale, or casual and familiar.
