Gather With Purpose: A Hands-On Holiday Hosting Workshop
About this Event
🎄 Hosting this holiday season? What if you could actually enjoy your own gathering?
Between planning the food, decorating, coordinating guests, and making sure everyone has a good time, hosting can become more stressful than joyful.
But creating a memorable gathering doesn't have to mean doing more.
Join Revel & Co. Party Boutique and Mark Punzal Coaching for Gather With Purpose, a fun, hands-on holiday hosting workshop designed to help you take the pressure off, make thoughtful choices, and create more meaningful connections with the people you bring together.
Inspired by Priya Parker's The New Rules of Gathering, this 90-minute experience combines practical hosting strategies with hands-on creativity.
✨ You'll leave with:
✅ A simpler hosting plan
Get clear on why you're gathering, what you want your guests to experience, and how you want to feel as the host.
❤️ Knowing what to keep, simplify, or skip
Discover how to let go of unnecessary work and focus on the things that actually make your celebration meaningful.
🎈 A handmade balloon centerpiece
Get creative with guided instruction from Revel & Co. and make a beautiful balloon centerpiece to take home!
Plus: You'll explore simple ways to write a welcoming invitation, create connection among your guests, and end your gathering on a meaningful note.
🎉 Who is this workshop for?
Anyone 18 or older who enjoys bringing people together—or wants to make hosting a little easier.
Whether you're planning Thanksgiving, a holiday dinner, a birthday celebration, or simply a get-together with friends, you'll walk away with ideas you can put into practice.
No balloon-making experience needed. All materials included.

You don't have to be the perfect host to create a memorable gathering.
Sometimes the most meaningful celebrations happen when we stop worrying about getting everything right and give ourselves permission to actually enjoy the people we've brought together.
Come create something beautiful, discover what matters most, and make more room for connection this holiday season.
