Decorate early; ask, shop and budget early for gifts; make a meal plan and cooking timeline; set the guest list; embrace the chaos by setting an Ugly Sweater theme; or don’t be afraid to simply scale back! Consider adopting this holiday planning mantra, “Early is on time, and on time is late!”

“When I was in the corporate world in my previous life, we would have team outings, but the event couldn’t handle our seven hundred employees. So, we were divided into smaller groups, and as a result, the bonding part hardly took place,” says Co-owners Mark Wolf and Dan Fishburn. “The Fowling Warehouse brings everyone together for a true bonding experience in a close proximity setting for a more intimate experience. It really is an investment for any group in Omaha who strives for more performance from their employees.”

Fowling is the combination of bowling and football; players throw footballs at bowling pins, and the first team to knock down the other team’s pins wins! The Fowling Warehouse’s meeting space and Fowling lanes can accommodate up to 1,200 guests. It has full A/V capabilities, two full bars, 30 huge HD TV’s, large screen projectors and thorough music selections.

“Dan and I believe in giving back to the Omaha community by extending the offering of our facility to help local non-profits and charities with their goals,” stated Wolf. “We have recently partnered with The Kim Foundation, Autism Action Partnership, American Heart Association, United Cerebral Palsy of Nebraska, Buffet Middle School, Nebraska Children’s Home Society, Youth Emergency Services and Nebraska CASA Association.”

The Fowling Warehouse Omaha is honored to help businesses plan and execute their holiday events this season and can’t wait to engage with even more of the Omaha community!

Making the Holiday Season Memorable

When planning any gathering or special holiday occasion, finding ways to make it memorable is always a top priority. One popular and increasingly essential element for creating a fun and engaging atmosphere is the photobooth!

Photobooths are excellent ice-breakers. They encourage guests who might not know each other well to interact and bond over the shared experience of taking fun photos. Whether it’s a family reunion or a corporate event, photobooths help break down social barriers and foster a more relaxed and friendly atmosphere!

In today’s digital age, having a photobooth with social media integration can create a buzz both during and after the event. Guests can share their photos instantly, increasing the visibility of your event and generating excitement online. It’s a great way to keep the party going beyond the physical space and reach a wider audience.

One of the biggest advantages of a photobooth is the personalized keepsakes it offers. Customizable photo strips or prints with your event’s date, names, or a special message make for memorable souvenirs. Guests leave with a tangible reminder of the event, which they’re likely to cherish long after the celebration ends!

Planning a holiday event can be cumbersome, but FotoFunSpot (fotofunspot.com) has dozens of photobooths to add to the special day! FotoFunSpot’s state-of-the-art booths are sure to keep the business’ laughs going and the memories fresh for years to come.
