Make the Holidays Unforgettable at our Exclusive Holiday Party Venues

By now, we’ve braved the cold in our sweaters and knit scarves, bought all the pumpkin spice treats we could find, and we are eagerly waiting for the appropriate time to switch our pumpkins to pine trees. This means that the much anticipated holiday season is almost here! 

This also means that it’s time to start planning for your holiday party! Whether it’s the annual office Christmas party, or a holiday celebration with your extended family, there is an unspoken pressure to create an unforgettable experience. 

Before you start checking off your party planning checklist, you have to secure the perfect venue – because let’s face it – having a clean, guest ready house is great in theory, but how nice and stress free would it be to not have to worry about that?! And for that infamous holiday office party that’s typically held in the small meeting room of your office, wouldn’t a change of scenery be a little more exciting? 

Lucky for you, The JDK Group has four exclusive venues that are perfect for all holiday party vibes – and much more picturesque than the office meeting room.  View the area’s best holiday party venues below!
