I'm Throwing An "Ugly Christmas Sweater" Party Next Weekend & I Am Looking For Some NT Pro Tips, Do's & Don'ts With This Type Of Party. All My Parties I'veThrown Have Always Been Backyard BBQ's So This Is Uncharted Territory's [emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji]
 
dont do an ugly sweater party.

the shhh is mad corny and played.

just have a damn christmas party.

-but the white elephant game is always fun

-have plenty of drinks and make a "punch" that the people who don't drink alot will drink. 

something that tastes really good but has alcohol in it.  apple cidar is a good holiday drink. 

basically you want everyone to lose the edge

-if you have a bluetooth speaker and a music subscription service and an ipad you could start a playlist and pass around the ipad so everyone can pick a song they would want to hear. basically a jukebox. 

- make it a potluck

I Feel You About Ugly Christmas Sweaters Being Played. Been Hearing About Them Since High School But It Was Always The Preppy Kid's Parties So I Wouldnt Get Invited [emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji] Plus Everyone Seems Hype To Do A Ugly XMas So I Can't Switch It Up Now
 
White Elephant (at least how we do it at work)

Everyone brings in a wrapped gift. Usually something tacky (under $20...)

Everyone who participates gets a #

Let's say 20 people are playing, everyone is numbered 1-20.

All #'s are placed in a hat.

Hat is passed and everyone takes a #, but doesn't disclose what it is. Keep that close to the vest.

Person who drew #1 goes first and gets to pick a gift out of the pile. Gift is opened.

Person #2 can either pick a new gift (and open it) OR take the gift from person #1

Person #3 can take a new gift (and open it) OR take either gift from person #1 or person #2

This goes on and on.

Bottom line, the higher your number, the better.

Game is a lot of fun and there's usually non-stop laughing.
 
^Dang, you guys don't have a limit on the amount of steals? Doesn't it take forever? lol

I wish we could have alcohol for our holiday party.
 
Damn, That Sounds Awesome [emoji]128563[/emoji][emoji]128526[/emoji] I'll Try To See If I Can Get People On Board With That
Y'all Know Of Any Christmas Themed Drinks?
& What Type Of Like Hand Food Would Be Appropriate? Gonna Get A Tray Of Shrimp But Idk What Else I Should Get
 
How many people you expect to come through?
You providing all the alcohol yourself?
 
20-25 & Yeah, Everything Is On The House
Get a decent mixture of different types of drinks,somebody mentioned punch,not really a holiday type drink but rum punch is easy and always appreciated.Get heavy stuff for the alcoholic types and lighter stuff for the social drinkers.
