The holiday season is the perfect time to bring your team together for a memorable celebration that goes beyond the typical office party. At Spruce Mountain Ranch, we've hosted countless corporate holiday events that transform into unforgettable experiences, thanks to our stunning Colorado mountain setting and versatile venue spaces.

Looking to create a holiday work party that your team will be talking about all year long? These five festive themes perfectly complement our venue's natural beauty and cozy atmosphere, ensuring your corporate celebration feels both professional and genuinely fun.

Night In at Spruce Mountain Ranch

Sometimes the best way to celebrate the holidays is by embracing that cozy, stay-in vibe—but doing it somewhere absolutely spectacular. A "Night In at Spruce Mountain Ranch" theme encourages your team to trade their work attire for pajamas or other comfy clothes, creating an instantly relaxed atmosphere that breaks down barriers and encourages genuine connection.

Picture your colleagues gathered around a decadent hot cocoa bar, complete with all the fixings, while a classic Christmas movie plays softly in the background during dinner. The magic really happens when you introduce classic childhood games like Twister and Jenga—nothing builds team camaraderie quite like watching the CEO attempt a challenging Twister pose!

For teams wanting to go all out, consider partnering with Fun Productions for giant-sized games that'll have everyone laughing and competing in the most delightful way.

The food should embrace that nostalgic sleepover vibe: think gourmet burgers, artisan pizzas, fresh popcorn, or even late night breakfast. Catering By Design's Late Night menu is perfect for this theme, offering elevated versions of comfort food classics that satisfy both the kid and adult in everyone.

Spruce Mountain Ranch Speakeasy

Transport your team back to the glamorous 1920s with a sophisticated speakeasy celebration that oozes vintage charm. Encourage guests to channel their inner mobsters and flappers with period-appropriate attire, while black and gold décor transforms our rustic spaces into an elegant underground establishment.

The key to nailing this theme is in the details: low-level, cozy lighting creates that intimate speakeasy atmosphere, while gin-centered cocktails keep the authenticity flowing. Consider setting up a stunning photo booth or backdrop—we're particularly fond of the Gatsby-themed photo set from our partners at MiHi Entertainment, perfect for capturing everyone's glamorous transformation.

Ditch the formal seated dinner for this celebration and embrace the party atmosphere with elegant hors d'oeuvres and finger food displays. Your team can mingle freely, cocktail in hand, while enjoying the sophisticated yet relaxed vibe that makes speakeasy parties so memorable.

Cozy Cabin Christmas

Few venues can pull off an authentic cozy cabin Christmas theme quite like Spruce Mountain Ranch. Our natural mountain setting provides the perfect backdrop for this versatile theme that works beautifully for crowds of all ages—including families with children.

The beauty of this theme lies in its flexibility. Attire can range from casual cozy wear to beloved ugly Christmas sweaters, and families can coordinate with matching pajamas or holiday sets for adorable photo opportunities. The focus shifts to creating warm, inviting spaces with lush seating areas, soft blankets, and perhaps a crackling fire pit or two.

Food should embrace pure comfort: think mac and cheese stations, hearty roasted meats, gourmet s'mores setups, and steaming hot chocolate bars. Consider Modern Catering’s holiday entree or carving station menus for your dinner selection. Peak Beverage's Toasty Treats drink menu pairs perfectly with this theme, offering warm, comforting options that complement the cozy atmosphere.

Set up group gaming stations and social areas where colleagues can connect over board games, card games, or simply enjoy meaningful conversations by the fire. For a unique twist that extends the experience beyond the party, consider partnering with Luxe Intuition for a candle-making class—guests can craft their own cozy scents to take home.

Christmas Karaoke Extravaganza

Nothing breaks the ice quite like karaoke, and a Christmas-themed karaoke party brings out everyone's festive spirit. Whether you make it a friendly competition for the competitive spirits on your team or opt for more inclusive activities like "Name That Tune" or music video bingo, this theme guarantees laughter and memorable moments.

Encourage general festive attire, or invite team members to dress as their favorite musical artists—bonus points if they perform a song by their chosen performer! This theme works wonderfully because it gives both extroverts and introverts ways to participate, whether they're belting out "All I Want for Christmas Is You" or cheering from the audience.

The key is creating multiple ways for people to engage with the music theme while maintaining that holiday spirit throughout the celebration. Food should be casual yet satisfying, so think quicker, handheld bites for the more social nature. We’re a big fan of Mountain Crust's wood-fired pizza buffet - choose from one of their pre-planned packages or work with them for customized menus and add-ons!

Old Hollywood Holidays

Bring the elegance and glamour of classic cinema to your holiday celebration with an Old Hollywood theme that's both sophisticated and timelessly festive. This theme pairs beautifully with traditional holiday fare—think perfectly roasted turkey or glazed ham with seasonal vegetables, accompanied by classic cocktails that would make Cary Grant proud. Rocky Mountain Catering’s Holiday Traditions menu is a great choice for this classic theme!

Encourage guests to dress as classic Christmas movie characters or embrace general Old Hollywood era attire for that authentic vintage feel. The décor should channel those iconic black and white films, with strategic splashes of red, green, or blue to maintain the festive holiday atmosphere.

Set up classic Christmas movie trivia or let beloved holiday films play softly in the background while guests mingle. For the ultimate movie moment experience, consider arranging carriage rides through our picturesque property with our partners from Kodiak Ranch—nothing says "classic Hollywood" quite like a romantic carriage ride through the Colorado mountains.
