Alice in Wonderland – A Unique Christmas Party Theme

If you are looking for a unique Wonderland Christmas Party Theme for your office party, why not look outside the box and instead of googling commercial Christmas tree decorators or corporate events specialists why not google unique themed décor and discover Eventologists! Eventologists brings the topsy turvy and magical world of Alice in wonderland to venues around the country with an exciting wonderland Christmas party theme, with stunning venue dressing and entertainment that brought Alice to Life. From the moment guests walked in guests were surrounded by iconic props and characters – they were met by the Mad Hatter who ushered guests to one of his legendary tea parties and then ‘pop’  they walked through a rabbit hole into a stunning forest of flora and fauna and slightly crazy quirky things!

As the guests entered the main banqueting suite they descended further into Wonderland with a mad hatters picnic as they get entertained by the queen of hearts and tweedle dum and tweedle dee. Along with an enchanted forest, guests were mesmerized by room theming and Alice themed props such as the Rabbits Giant Pocket watch, A Giant Drink Me Bottle, Giant Flower props, Enchanted table centres and Mushrooms. If you are looking for an Alice themed party or a mad hatters themed party, look no further than Eventologists who can help you with everything from a bespoke party themed décor to themed entertainment and dispel those thoughts of prop hire being the route to take!

Turn up the Heat this Christmas with our Dramatic Fire & Ice Themed Event!

Turn up the Heat with our Cool Fire & Ice Christmas Party Theme!

Things are looking hot for your next Christmas Party Theme! Ever heard the saying opposites attract, well it couldn’t be more true, especially when it comes to the theatrical Fire & Ice event theme by Eventologists, a perfect way to turn up the heat for your next Christmas party theme. This innovative theme combines two of the most dynamic and opposing elements to create a dramatic play on duality and an ambience your guests will never forget.

The creation of this event has two exciting options with regards to the layout. You can either split your venue into two separate Fire and Ice areas, keeping the contrasting elements apart, or you can fuse the two together for an explosion of heat and frost. Either way this explosion of elements is sure to fuel an event your guests will never forget!

To transform the room into separate Fire and Ice spaces, Eventologists will use red, yellow and orange coloured décor schemes and props across one side to represent the flames and heat of the fire, alongside blue, white and purple décor on the other side to make your guests feel icy cold. Dress it up with a showcase of Flame table centrepieces or Candelabras on one side and Icy Willow or Ice Sculpture table centres on the other. Finally, we will tie this incredible atmosphere together with our amazing Fire Performers and Ice Fairies to provide your guests with mesmerising entertainment, aligning the two themes for a night filled with drama!

If you choose to have these elements separate, an exciting way to split the themes between different rooms ensuring your guests are immersed from start to finish, is to have guests enter via a fiery drink’s reception, with flames, hot beverages and Fire Performers. From there on, your guests will walk through a cool ice tunnel into a room adorned with icy décor and frosty details. This will ensure that your guests are surrounded in the perfect atmosphere for them to ‘chill’ out in as the evening goes on!

If you chose to fuse the two elements together in a mesmerising event exploring the heat of fire and the cold of ice, we can offer a mixture of red and orange draping, icy table centres and frosty décor. You will have both our incredible Fire performers and our elegant Ice Fairies entertaining your guests throughout your event, each showcasing their spectacular element, allowing your guests to chose which is superior.

Whatever way you chose to present this event, the captivating combination of opposing elements is sure to grab your guest’s attention and immerse them in a dramatic event that they will never forget!

Our Fire and Ice Décor and Props include:

• Large Fire Prop Hire
• Fire and Ice Stage Backdrop Hire
• Twinkle Twig Entrance Hire

If it’s a night out, then it should feel like a night out of the normal! This issue is even more challenging with a virtual event and its not just about a platform.
2. Exciting Gala Dinner Entertainment – if they’re attending, they want to be entertained, so look at the best entertainment options from the moment they walk in. Think about in-between courses and a star performance or a key act that they will all talk about!
3. Inclusivity adds to the interaction – making guests feel part of the event rather than just a spectator is hard, but if you crack it, you’re set to create an event that everyone will remember. That’s why many people choose Themed Events that encourage people to participate in the Theme.
