5 Vital Reasons You Should Schedule Your Holiday Party Today

Vital 'Tis the season to book your company's holiday party! When you're not an event planner, it's hard to know when the right time is for booking a venue. And we get it, securing a Holiday venue is not at the top of your to-do list earlier in the year but here's why it should be. Take a look at these 5 reasons why you should book your holiday party today.

1. You Get Your First Choice Date

We all want that second Thursday in December, but the truth is, most people that end up with this coveted date have already booked it early on in the year. The earlier the better when it comes to booking a holiday venue because finding the perfect date for your coworkers is tough. Make sure to always account for your guest's work commutes, holiday vacations or any company-wide meetings on the same date.

2. You Get Your First Choice Venue

Booking early also means that you finally have a shot at that gorgeous Midtown venue you've been eyeing for years but has never been available. It's rare that your first choice venue will still be available only a few months out from the date. Play it safe and make sure that your dream venue is locked down before the mad rush of holiday inquiries flood the venue's inbox.

3. More Time To Find Amazing Vendors

Luckily, you'll finally have enough time to get the perfect photographer, florist, caterer, entertainment and more. Finding the perfect venue early allows you and your team to snag all the best vendors before the holiday season is in full swing. You'll actually have time to meet the vendors, do some tastings and pick the best ones before they are all booked up.

4. Guests Have More Time to RSVP

Your coworkers have busy lives, kids and packed travel schedules. Being able to send out the holiday party invite early this years means that more people will come. If your guests are anything like the rest of the workforce, they'll probably let the email get lost in their inbox, fish it out weeks later and finally click that RSVP's "yes" button. When you book your venue early, they will have more than enough time to RSVP without the stress of the event coming up the following weeks (and will definitely be more likely to say yes because they'll have more time to plan their schedules around the event).

5. You Can Focus on More Important Events

Again, we know that most of you aren't event planners and don't really have time to sweat about the details of your holiday party. You have that big multidayconference looming over your head and can't waste your precious time on last-minute eventstressors. Here's where we come in so that you can focus on more important things at work. Let Best Venues find the perfect venue for your Holiday event and any future event, all free of charge. Oh, and we also provide complimentary vendor sourcing (feel free to take the credit when your boss asks how you planned the most perfect event)!
