We offer you some original ideas regarding the celebration of March 8 in the work team. All of them are easy to implement and do not require large expenditures of finance and time.

How to invite Vesna to the office

March 8 is a public holiday, so working ladies will spend it with their families. But this is not a reason to refuse to celebrate in the work collective! Usually in offices it is customary to congratulate the beautiful half on the eve of this weekend, or on Friday, if the holiday falls on a weekend or Monday.

Having come to work on this day, women should feel the approach of the holiday from the very beginning. For this, the room does not have to look as usual. Staying late in the evening after work, men will be able to give the office an unusual and festive look in an hour and a half. Yes, the working atmosphere will suffer a little, but women will be charged with joy and enthusiasm for a whole year, and this is certainly worth the effort.

How can you decorate your office? It all depends, firstly, on the size of the premises, and secondly, on the capabilities of the organizers. The simplest, but invariably effective way is balls. But there are other original options for giving a formal room a festive look, you are with them.

What to give beautiful ladies

Any woman is pleased not only with the attention shown to her during the preparation for the holiday, but also with its material expression in the form of a present, which will remind of this day and invariably return high spirits.

In each team, it is customary to approach this issue in its own way. If the number of women is small, more expensive gifts can be presented. And if you have a whole "flower garden" at work, while there are few representatives of the stronger sex, then you will have to think about lovely souvenirs or other pleasant, but inexpensive tokens of attention. And if you need to congratulate the lady boss? There is no way to be mistaken here. In general, the problem of choosing a gift is not an easy one, however, do not panic, we are ready to help you!

When choosing a gift, think not only about financial costs. Since you are going to give gifts not just to ladies, but to colleagues, you should not lose sight of corporate ethics. You should not risk the mood and disposition of women on such a day by giving them gifts that can be interpreted ambiguously.

We bring to your attention a kaleidoscope of additional ideas that will help make this day truly outstanding.

1. Celebration right from the doorstep... Meet the ladies who come to work with an unexpected surprise:

  • suddenly turn on solemn or just beautiful music (some even invite live musicians!);
  • fill the path of women from the entrance to the workplace with rose petals (they are easy to purchase in packages);
  • at the entrance to the ladies, the courteous butler opens the door and helps them take off their jacket or coat;
  • to lay a "red carpet" along which to arrange "paparazzi". Photo of greeting the stars of the holiday will decorate the monitors of your office ladies.

2. Treat "not for every day"... Nowadays, you won't surprise anyone with a buffet table. But ladies will surely remember for a long time, for example, a chocolate fountain, themed cupcakes or gingerbread made to order, an original candy bar, handmade sweets or chocolate with wrappers in the form of a photo of the heroes of the occasion, an unusual cake. Now all this is easy to organize with the help of catering companies or simply with the masters of their craft.

3. Slaughter photo zone... What better reminder of the past holiday than documentary incontestable evidence in the form of a photo? And they should be such that the ladies would not be ashamed to post them on Instagram, Vkontakte, Facebook or Odnoklassniki! Hire a professional photographer with good equipment for this day and set up a “work area” for him: choose a cozy corner of the office with suitable lighting.

It is not difficult to arrange a photo zone: a nice plain background (drapery), balls, flowers, garlands, banners, several interesting accessories. Tantamares in the form of movie stars, queens, goddesses, ballerinas will also be a success.

4. Show number... Easy to perform and a win-win option, costly only in financial terms, which will definitely cheer up the ladies. Organize a performance that your business lady will love by inviting a professional.

For the Spring office holiday, you can choose:

  • sand show - within 15-20 minutes, pictures drawn on the sand to a romantic melody will change in front of your eyes (they are usually created on a special table, which the master brings with him, and the image is displayed on the screen), and at the end there is a congratulation written exactly for the women of your company;
  • light show - spectacular and unusual in the evening or in the hall where you can achieve complete darkness: 15-20 minutes of creating successive 3-D pictures that melt in the air, with personal congratulations at the end;
  • show with pigeons - romantic and beautiful, easy to implement in an office environment;
  • tricks - everyone loves them;
  • soap bubble show - don't think it's just for kids, sparkling soap balls bring genuine joy to everyone.

5. Unusual prank... If there are not many women in the company, 3-5 people, then you can arrange for them an unusual and harmless prank that will make them smile and keep the intrigue until the very end. Write on beautiful cards the names of the gifts that the company is supposedly going to present to each lady: "face peeling", "hair removal", "full body massage", "hypnosis session", etc.

To present the “gift”, the ladies are invited one by one to a secluded office, from where, to the shock of the others, loud sounds are heard (of course, the recording is made in advance). In fact, in the office, the recipient is savoring a glass of champagne and promises not to give away the secret until the last "sacrifice".

6. Beauty salon right in the office... Hire a make-up specialist and hairdresser who will give the ladies the opportunity to do their festive hairstyle and make-up without leaving their workplace.

7. Master classes... This entertainment is becoming more and more popular. It helps not only to spend time interestingly and usefully, but also to keep a masterpiece made with his own hands as a keepsake, and for someone, perhaps, to acquire a new hobby, to discover himself. It is quite simple to organize: you just need to make a choice of a master class and invite a specialist.

Be careful with your choice: you should not do, for example, pottery or embroidery on such a day.

As practice shows, women are delighted and fascinated by such activities:

  • chocolate master class: making sweets or chocolate bars;
  • painting - oil, pastel;
  • making cosmetics - "bombs" for the bath, scrubs, balms, sometimes even perfume;
  • soap making;
  • casting decorative candles;
  • making jewelry and jewelry;
  • painting on fabric - you can buy eco-bags for this purpose, so that you have something to carry the gifts you received home.

8. Karaoke... Everyone loves to sing, the voice sounds especially good after 2-3 toasts ... Karaoke programs can be easily installed on any computer, and if you want a more professional approach, you can order equipment and a presenter who will compose a special program with song contests for your ladies.

9. Quest... Adventure always beckons everyone. To arrange such entertainment, it is not necessary to take your colleagues to an equipped quest room. On the Internet, you can find many ideas regarding the arrangement of a quest in any room, including the office. If you want, experts will help you with this. And the theme of the quest can be anything!

10. Individual awards... Every woman is pleased if they see something special in her that others do not have. If a man takes the trouble to look for such a "zest" in each employee and give a prize for her, a good mood is guaranteed. The options for awards may be different ":" The most mysterious eyes "," Fascinating voice "," Invincible intellect "," Empress of accounting "...

Just avoid vulgarity and ambiguity.

11. "There are only girls in jazz"... It is always interesting and funny when a man tries to act as a woman. If you have brave and artistic employees in your company, dress them up in “Daphne” and “Josephine”, and have them pose with the girls in the photo zone or participate in competitions on an equal basis with other ladies.

12. Poems or serenade for ladies... No woman will remain indifferent to such a manifestation of feelings. Just don't take template texts from the Internet! If one of the employees is gifted with poetry, let him compose a few lines for each employee or write the lyrics to a well-known melody especially for that day. Or you can order this service from professionals.

13. Office "fairies"... Let only today all the desires of your beautiful ladies be fulfilled by a charming "fairy", in the role of which one of the employees can be. The image of a "fairy" can be varied: a prince, an elf with wings, a dignified butler, etc.

“Fetch water, juice or champagne? This minute! "," Let me move you a chair "," Would you like to lean on my hand? "

Perhaps at first the ladies will be shy, but soon they will get a taste.

14. Live postcard... Collective congratulations from all men, of course, it needs to be rehearsed in advance. It would be nice to include some musical composition, and then line up in a certain order and say congratulations. A composition from some famous painting looks very impressive, the image of which can be displayed at the same time, or perhaps it is it that decorates your office? You can "revive" and some scene from the film.

15. List of good deeds... This interesting and unusual idea can be realized at the end of the holiday. Think up and write various things that you can do to please your office colleagues of the fair sex, and then play the lottery. It is more interesting when the lottery is "double": first, the name of the man who will carry out the task is pulled out, and then the surprise itself is played out. Make sure that the number of "good deeds" corresponds to the number of women gifted.

These "special offers" may include the following:

  • a three-day "transfer" from work to home (by the transport of a male donor or by taxi);
  • wash the car for an employee;
  • provide her at work with breakfast (three days or another agreed period);
  • once a day for a week, bring her a cup of coffee for lunch;
  • give flowers unexpectedly three times during the next month;
  • the most extreme option is "American", that is, a desire at the discretion of the lady herself.

Whatever ideas you use for organizing March 8 in an office environment, do it with all your heart. May there be one more joyful day in life, when a woman has the right to rely on your attention and pleasant surprises. Let women have one more reason to feel charming, chic, admirable. And when you give joy to others, you yourself receive it tenfold. Happy Holidays!
