Book a host for your Christmas party
The Christmas party season starts in November. A host with games, raffles and an exchange-gift program keeps it fun; a photographer and a musician or band finish it off. Book early: December weekends go first.

Before you book
- Book by October for December weekends.
- Share the raffle, the games and any awards with the host before the night.
- Tell the musician the length of each set and the breaks.
- Pay in person: on a first booking, at most 50% in cash when you meet and the rest after. Phriend never holds the money.
Questions
- Can the host run the raffle and games?
- Most party hosts do. Agree on the program and what they bring in the chat.
- Can I book a band or DJ?
- Look under Musician; many list DJ sets and band gigs.
