The magic and cheer of the holiday season is around the corner, and Marriott Bonvoy Events is reimagining festive corporate party experience in exceptional spaces. From elegant galas and fundraisers to support local charities, to more light hearted parties with karaoke, holiday sweater and cookie decorating contests, a festive company party is a time to reflect on all of the hard work, achievements, and successes from the year.
While it’s important to consider many factors when planning a memorable holiday event, one of the most vital elements is selecting a venue that will help your vision come to life. Marriott Bonvoy Events provides a vast portfolio of premier properties throughout North America, with the capacity to host unique celebrations that spark genuine connections and unforgettable memories. Planners can select from vibrant urban destinations situated next to the bustling nightlife and entertainment of a destination to a more serene coastal or mountainside retreat for a more off-the-beaten-track and intimate company gathering.
Marriott Bonvoy Events understands that customization is key to forge lasting memories and building team bonds. That is why each venue’s team takes the time to learn about each individual company, its team members, and what makes it so special. At the Adolphus hotel in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, creative branding is a focus with signature cocktails or mocktails reflecting company colors and printed logos on coffee drinks. Additionally, at The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua in Hawaii, groups are using AI in the design of events with over-the-top visuals and projections, and groups can “Deck the Walls” at the Sheraton Grand Chicago Riverwalk with a wall of suspended champagne flutes.
The talented team of event professionals across all the properties is on-hand through every step of the holiday party planning process, from selecting the perfect date to finding the perfect entertainment. Event experts also help groups showcase the latest holiday party trends and interactive experiences including cooking decorating and gingerbread house-making classes, live entertainment or visits from Santa, multi-sensory dining opportunities with lighting and sound, and unique giving back programs that give back to the local community.
Not only can event planners rest assured their holiday event will go off without a hitch, they can take part in the fun themselves and focus on what’s most important, celebrating their team and all of their hard work throughout the year.
To further enhance to festivities, several hotels feature extravagant holiday displays throughout the season. From a spectacular Sugar Castle at the Westin St. Francis in San Francisco to a life-sized gingerbread chalet and Polar Express-inspired tea at The Ritz-Carlton, Cleveland, groups can take advantage of social-media worthy experiences.
