SMILING THROUGH CHAOS HOLIDAY PARTY PLANNING
The holidays are a busy time of year, and throwing a great holiday party can be a time-consuming endeavor. Our clients choose Smiling Through Chaos to plan their holiday events, allowing them to relax and enjoy the festivities.
CORPORATE PARTIES
Holiday parties are a great way to thank your team for their hard work each year, but they’re a lot of time and effort to plan. Our corporate clients come to us with their guest count and budget, and we plan and execute all the details so they don’t have to.
PERSONAL EVENTS
Our clients want to bring their friends and families together for a special holiday event. They choose us to help plan the menus, hire the caterers, decorate the space, and arrange the entertainment so they can enjoy the party and their guests.
What’s included in HOLIDAY PARTY PLANNING?
Smiling Through Chaos is available for all aspects of planning. Each event is unique, so get in touch with us to chat about your event’s needs. We can plan everything including the decor, table settings, florals, rentals, entertainment, photography and videography, favors, menu, hair and makeup, styling and outfit selection, and beyond. Some of our clients will also hire us for nutritional and wellness counseling so they can be confident and feeling great for their big day.
For smaller events with a big “wow” factor - the experience
For clients who want an intimate event with a huge impact, we offer our signature Experience service. The Experience is ideal for clients who have a guest list of under fifty guests, have a short timeline for their event, and who want a major “wow” factor without having to do the planning themselves.
