We recently sat down with our Senior Conference and Events Sales Executive, Tori, to get her expert advice on planning the ultimate Christmas party here at Edgbaston Park Hotel. Here are her top five tips to make your celebration one to remember.
Find the perfect venue
Choose a venue which is flexible and offers plenty of space to personalise your party to suit your business needs. At Edgbaston Park Hotel, we offer 11 conference and event spaces from anything from six to 240 delegates and the hotel is sparkling with Christmas decorations from mid-November so no matter when you celebrate with your friends, family or colleagues, it will feel like a festive wonderland. We also have 185 cosy bedrooms at the hotel, so guests can stay the night and make the most of the festivities.
Plan your festive party early
When it comes to planning your Christmas party, the earlier the better! Booking your Christmas party in advance not only avoids disappointment but also allows time for adding those special, bespoke touches that make an event truly magical. We offer private show rounds at Edgbaston Park Hotel, where you can tour our facilities, meet our team, and discuss any specific ideas or needs for your celebration.
Choose a delicious festive menu
An impressive menu sets the tone for a memorable party. This year’s festive menu at Edgbaston Park Hotel includes options for every palate, including roasted butternut squash and sweet potato soup to start, traditional roast turkey or chickpea, butternut squash and cauliflower wellington for main and chocolate orange tart with passionfruit coulis and mulled wine berry compote for dessert.
Add unique touches
Bring extra cheer to your Christmas party by adding unique details. At Edgbaston Park Hotel, we work with a curated list of trusted suppliers who can help you bring your vision to life. Whether it’s transforming your event with an inflatable igloo, hosting Quiz Mania with Bright Vision Events, indulging in a Chocolate Workshop by Eventurous, or creating a lively Karaoke Party, we’ve got you covered. These added elements create a memorable experience that your guests will be talking about well into the new year.
Work with an experienced team
A seamless event requires a team with experience, and our conference and events sales executives are here to make sure every detail is managed. From planning to execution, we ensure your celebration shines, allowing you to sit back, relax, and enjoy the festivities.
Lastly, we asked Tori what her favourite thing about Christmas at Edgbaston Park Hotel is: ‘My favourite thing about Christmas at EPH is the chance to see each client’s vision come to life for their unique celebration. I love the festive season, it’s my favourite time of year so creating these experiences brings me real joy. Seeing clients return year after year is the so rewarding and is a testament to the unforgettable Christmas celebrations we create.’
