Plan your festive party bash soon!
Hotels and restaurants in Stirling have some fantastic Christmas party packages, with good discounts to be had for early bookings.
As anyone who has ever had to organise an office Christmas party knows, it pays to get started with your planning as early as you can.
So get ahead of the game and start thinking now about what kind of Christmas party you want to have this year.
In particular, you need to start working out when and where you will hold this year’s festive bash.
The right venue can make or break your office party, making it a night to remember or one your colleagues would rather forget.
And it does no harm to start ringing around and making inquiries now.
Most likely venues would welcome you making an early booking rather than having to turn you away because you left it too late.
Location is key and you want to make sure that, a) it’s easy for everyone to get to, and b) it’s big enough to fit your crowd.
Think about whether you want lots of places for people to sit down or a big dance floor – and do you want casual or formal?
It’s that awkward moment at the night out. The DJ is doing his best to get the crowd going but it’s still a little early and nobody has the confidence to get up on the dance floor and get things going.
At this point you have two choices:
1. Wait for the bravest in the group to get up and lead the way or,
2. Grab the bull by the horns and get the dancing started yourself.
Easier said than done though, right?
What if you end up the only dancer on the floor and nobody joins you? The horror of the track ending and you having to skulk back to your seat.
Well here’s an option.It requires a little practice but could set the night on fire.
Grab a few friends who are going out with you and plan a little routine to your favourite chart track.
Perhaps you fancy a bit of Single Ladies by Beyonce, or maybe you love the Cha Cha Slide. It doesn’t really matter, just select your track and get rehearsing.
Thanks to YouTube, you will have no problem finding some easy steps to master.
And remember – keep it simple and easy to remember.
Once you are up there, others can follow thes teps and join in.
So this year be the group that gets the party started.
When you get to the party, tell the DJ to play your song, then amaze everyone by getting up and having your very own flash mob party dance.
