If you’re the person at your company who ends up organizing the holiday party, you already know the timeline sneaks up fast. October feels early to be thinking about December — but if there’s one thing we’d tell every office manager, event planner, or small business owner in Oregon right now, it’s this: the good vendors, including us, book up for December faster than almost any other month of the year.
Here’s why the early booking actually matters, beyond just securing your date.
Weekday and weeknight availability disappears first. A lot of company parties land on a Thursday or Friday in early-to-mid December, and those dates go quickly once other companies start locking in their calendars.
A custom drink menu takes a little lead time. If you want a bar that reflects your company or your event — a signature cocktail named after your team, a menu built around your budget per person, non-alcoholic options for a mixed crowd — that’s a much easier conversation to have in October than the week before your event.
Venues fill up too, and a lot of venues want to know your bar vendor is confirmed before they finalize your date, especially for larger corporate gatherings.
We handle everything — the trailer, the setup, the bartending, the breakdown — so once your date and package are locked in, it really is one less thing on your list. If your company’s holiday party is still just an idea on a calendar somewhere, now’s a great time to turn it into a real plan. Reach out through our Reserve page and let’s get your date secured before the calendar fills up around you.
