Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Things You’ll Need:
Step1
Check with the office manager or boss before you start planning, especially if you intend to hold the party in the office.
Step2
Tell the boss the proposed location and time of the party.
Step3
Decide what to serve. The less fuss the better with an office party, so you might want to order box lunches; bring rolls, meats and cheese; or simply serve cake and coffee.
Step4
Choose decorations. You won't want to go overboard with decorations in the office, so perhaps a bunch of balloons or a bouquet of flowers would be appropriate.
Step5
Figure out how to handle gift giving. A group gift is often the best approach, allowing everyone to contribute what they can toward a large gift on the bridal registry list.
Step6
Invite people. Formal invitations are not always necessary in an office environment. You can simply talk to people or send an invitation by e-mail.
Step7
Coordinate the gift purchase for a group gift. Collect money, purchase and wrap the gift and have everyone sign a card.
Step8
Set up the area where the party will take place. Set out paper goods, cups, forks and napkins.
