Planning a Company Holiday Party at a Winery: A Checklist for CT Teams
A winery holiday party feels different from another night at a restaurant. Your team gets handcrafted wine made on site, a peaceful setting on Lake Quassapaug, and warm indoor spaces built for gathering. For businesses across Middlebury, Waterbury, Southbury and Woodbury, Tranquillity Vineyard & Winery is the place to throw a holiday event your team will actually talk about. Use this checklist to plan it.
Your Winery Holiday Party Checklist
Five decisions shape every successful company holiday party at Tranquillity. Work through them in order and booking becomes simple.
1. Match the Space to Your Headcount
Tranquillity offers several private spaces, including the Historic Silo, the Wine Club Lounge and the BullPen barn. Each fits a different group size and budget. Our guide to choosing the right private space compares them by guest count and price.
2. Plan the Food
Small bites like cheese, crudité and antipasto boxes are available on site, and you can order from sister restaurants Brewbury or Vyne for delivery. See our food options and review our private event policies on outside food, beverages and decor before you finalize.
3. Pick Your Date Early
Indoor private events run through the winter, and December dates are the most requested of the season. Learn more about winter private events if January or February works better for your team.
