Holiday Office Party

It's that time of year again when we dawn our tuxedo's & our best dresses and get out on the dance floor in front of our co-workers and show them we really can dance.  It's time for the annual Christmas Holiday Party and the New Years eve party.  If you are the one responsible for the entertainment you want to be sure to book great entertainment for your event.

In planning a holiday party there are a lot of things  to consider.  How many people will determine the size of the room, the size of the buffet, and most importantly the size of the dance floor.  The latter we can assist with, try 1 sq. foot of dance floor per person, the smaller the crowd the smaller you want the dance floor to be for obvious reasons. 

We highly recommend due to weather that all parties be indoors with access to the outdoors for those who still smoke when they drink and for easier access to and from the room to the beach area (if it is on a beach). 

Now if you have an event in a tent use a licensed contractor for tents and they can provide you with the large outdoor heaters to keep you comfortable while the cold blows around outside.

Now as for entertainment I can only speak for Disc Jockey's.  I have been to the Holiday parties where someone from the office was going to rent some equipment and try to DJ the event.  As far as the Master of Ceremonies and the Disc Jockey goes all I ask is don't stake your reputation on an unqualified person. 

Whom ever you choose for your entertainment make sure it is a Disc Jockey so you can get a wide variety for the entire crowd.  Make sure the DJ is an interactive personality type and will interact with your crowd to keep the night lively and I don't mean one that screams and yells stuff like "get on the dance floor" all night.  I mean one that does not have to yell but can motivate everyone to want to have a good time.  Also, do not hire someone that believes in cooling the floor by playing music that stinks, make sure your DJ will change the music if the song is bad. 

If no one is willing to start dancing then you can help the DJ: have a back up plan like an interactive ice breaker for your DJ to implement and having a prize to give away does not hurt matters. Some examples are limbo, Combat Chairs, Scavenger Hunt, Dance Off, Tree Wrap, and let's not forget the office skit.  How we do ours is of course a trade secret but you can Google those and with your DJ's advice you can put together something fun for your DJ to do for you. 

The Shirt aka Mrs. Claus and the Chief aka Santa with their elves were nominated by their co-workers to perform a "Santa's cheating like Tiger Woods" Skit. 

Now of course we have to brag since we love ourselves so much.  We have done Holiday Parties as a Mobile DJ for a number of years now and we have the experience to make this interactivity happen for you.  Trust only a Professional Mobile Disc Jockey when you are planning a Holiday Party in Panama City or the Florida Panhandle area.  We want you to get the most out of your Holiday Party because we know with experience and repeat customers what will be talked about around the water cooler on Monday.  

If you are responsible for planning your event, make sure you book the best entertainment that you can book. I know a great DJ and MC for your next event in Bay County, Walton County, & Gulf County Florida, try this guy www.DJPorkChop.com..
