Holiday Party Ideas – Create a Relaxed and Memorable Evening


When it comes to holiday parties, it’s not always necessary to have loud entertainment to create an unforgettable evening. In fact, some of the best holiday parties are those where guests have the opportunity to participate in fun but relaxed activities that naturally create opportunities for taking photos and sharing memories. Here are a number of ideas on how to create a relaxed atmosphere where guests can enjoy themselves and take great photos that can be shared in a shared album via Guest.Gallery.

1. Photo Wall with a Christmas Theme


Create a beautifully decorated photo wall with Christmas decorations that guests can use as a background for their photos. It could be anything from a wall with Christmas ornaments and tinsel to a cozy fireplace setup with stockings hanging on the mantle. Guests can take photos in front of the wall, share them on social media, and upload them to Guest.Gallery so that everyone can relive the moments of the evening.

2. Kahoot Christmas Quiz


Organize a fun and interactive Christmas quiz using Kahoot, where guests can participate via their phones. The quiz could feature questions about Christmas, holiday songs, or even fun facts about the company’s history. A quiz is a relaxed activity that can spark laughter and fun, and it encourages guests to take photos of their teams or results and share them with the rest of the group.

3. Christmas Bingo


Hand out Christmas-themed bingo cards and let guests participate in a relaxed bingo game during dinner. Prizes can be small, fun gifts or holiday treats. Christmas bingo is a cozy way to engage guests without requiring too much attention. Naturally, photos of the lucky winners can quickly become part of the evening’s memorable moments via Guest.Gallery.

4. Gift Exchange Game


Organize a “Secret Santa” game where guests anonymously exchange small gifts. It creates a fun atmosphere when everyone opens their gifts and tries to guess who they are from. Make sure guests take pictures while unwrapping their gifts and share them in Guest.Gallery so everyone can relive the moments together.

5. Christmas Movie Corner


Set up a cozy corner with a big screen where a classic Christmas movie like “Home Alone” or “The Grinch” can play in the background. It’s a passive form of entertainment where guests can relax and enjoy themselves. Additionally, pictures of the relaxed movie-watchers can be a fun addition to the album in Guest.Gallery.

6. Christmas Tree Decorating


Let guests help decorate a shared Christmas tree. Make sure there are fun and personalized ornaments that guests can hang on the tree. It creates a festive atmosphere where everyone contributes to the decorations, and pictures of the decorated tree – and those hanging the ornaments – can help create lasting memories.

7. Polaroid Guestbook


Let guests take Polaroid pictures and write a personal greeting or message to the host, which can then be placed in a guestbook. It’s a fun way to collect memories from the evening, and the pictures can also be shared digitally via Guest.Gallery, so everyone can see the wonderful moments.

8. Christmas Workshop


Set up a creative corner with a Christmas workshop where guests can make their own Christmas cards or small holiday decorations. It can be anything from cutting and pasting to making tree ornaments. It’s a fun and relaxed activity where guests can be creative and take pictures of their creations and the process, which can, of course, be shared in Guest.Gallery.

9. Karaoke Corner


Set up a corner with karaoke where guests can sing their favorite Christmas songs if they feel like it. It’s a passive activity where guests don’t have to participate all the time, but they can sing and have fun when the mood strikes. Fun and spontaneous photos from the karaoke sessions can be uploaded to Guest.Gallery, so everyone can relive the musical moments.

10. Christmas-Themed Photobooth Props


Add fun Christmas props to the selfie station that guests can use to take fun pictures. Reindeer antlers, Santa hats, beards, and more are just some of the props that can create laughs and great photos. Guests can take funny selfies, which can be shared in the shared album via Guest.Gallery.
