Your Guide to Hiring Props for Christmas Events and Parties

Christmas is on its way, and the excitement is building for festive parties and celebrations. If you’re looking to transform the space for your festive event, you’ve come to the right place!

With Christmas props suited for a variety of themes, from traditional charm to dazzling winter wonderlands, we at CaterHire.ie offer everything you’ll need for an unforgettable event.

Here’s a look at some top Christmas prop themes and our tips for styling them.

Winter Wonderland

To create the ultimate Winter Wonderland for your guests, we suggest snowy backdrops and white and silver accents. Our Snow-capped Christmas trees will set the scene, and real trees can be paired with our White Christmas Bauble - Medium. Incorporate icicles and snowflakes, such as our Large Hanging Snowflake with Santa's Face. You may also wish to add snowmen as characters for your winter wonderland, like our Snowman and Snowboy props. Don’t forget our White Sleigh! If you want to go all out, consider a snow machine or faux snow.

Santa’s Workshop

Add an element of Nostalgia to your event with this whimsical, playful theme! We recommend replicas of childhood favourites, such as our Toy Train and Nutcracker Soldier with White Moustache. Add to the fun with our Reindeer Seated with Hooves Crossed, Three Elves on a Sleigh with a sack of presents, Santa's Throne With Green Back and Santa With Christmas Countdown. You may wish to add hints of red and green, ribbons and bows, or a backdrop of a workshop to bring your scene to life. You can also use our Red Post Box with Snow for children to post their letters to Santa.

Candy Cane Lane

Perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth, a Candy Cane Lane theme is all about embracing the sweet treats of the festive season. Focus on classic hues like red and white. You may also wish to incorporate pastel shades. Dot our Giant Candy Cane on Stand around your space to evoke the ultimate candy land, and why not add our Gingerbread Boy and Gingerbread Girl? If you’re dining, we recommend a red or white tablecloth, and centrepieces such as gingerbread houses. No Candy cane theme would be complete without a sweets table, where you can let your imagination run wild with lollipops, peppermint candies and more!

Traditional Christmas

This theme is ideal if you want a classic, timeless vibe. Consider greens, reds and golds as your main colours to invoke a warm, cosy feel, and include traditional Christmas elements such as berries and pinecones, which can be incorporated into wreaths. For textures, velvet is a festive classic. Add our Giant Green Gift Box, Santa With Lantern and Lamp Post with Snow for a traditional-inspired winter village.
