This event was one of my favorite office events to date. When I had started with this company, Quantifind, the events budget was a happy hour every Friday, in which people would use as an excuse to leave early. There was little to no company culture. I did many events and slowly was able to get the involvement with nearly everyone in the office. This party was a September event, so I decided that the day would be themed WFH Slumber style.. There wasn't any major cultural events or holidays our office was interested in so I decided on this theme. I created the invite and set the date. We always had contests so this year I did a homemade pizza contest and a costume / best dressed. 
Our office has a few individuals that love to cook and curate recipes of their own, the theme is slumber, so pizza was perfect. Amazing! I hired a popsicle bar vender. This popsicle bar you pick your ice cream, then a coating then toppings OMG so yummy ! 
I put out a popcorn bar. Everyone loves popcorn, everyone loves it different. So it was a make it your way popcorn bar. I also added an italian soda bar. This event was very family style. It really felt like a slumber party. Everyone made the best of it. We had fun and games and worked all day. 
My favorite part of the event is the costume or Pajama Contest. I LOVE it when everyone dresses up. I take pictures of them on this big white wall. And then I transform them into a scene. It sometimes makes sense with their personalities or the costume they choose, mostly both. But I love creating these for my coworkers. They also love them and it encourages them to participate. When I finish them I hang a set on this beautiful gallery wall and everyone in the office will vote in their favorite. I sometimes did voting on Slack.
This event was so fun.
