STIR Things Up This Holiday Party Season
Are you that person who throws fabulous holiday parties, trying to out-do yourself year after year? You plan the menu, food, drinks, flowers, linens, invitations, decor--all during the ‘most wonderful (and busy) time of the year’ and then pull it all together seamlessly like the perfect party host that you are. Oh, and once your guests leave, you also have the ‘pleasure’ of cleaning it all up! Come on, admit it! You are exhausted by the end of the night. Who wouldn’t be?
What if this year you decided to STIR things up, still keeping up the fabulous but getting rid of the stress?

It is possible, and in fact the possibilities are endless— if you consider hosting your party at STIR, a trendy, intimate urban loft, beautifully furnished by Evolo Design in downtown Old Montgomery.

Matt Byers, owner of Evolo Design, purchased the former heating and air conditioning building located at 7813 Ted Gregory Ln, in Cincinnati, in 2008. He then brought in partner Mike Wentz, architect of Wentz Design to design a space that emphasizes its Ohio roots and the Old Montgomery character. STIR offers not only a beautiful and hip place to throw a party, but also provides a fully interactive, creative space for corporate meetings and team building activities, such as their popular culinary competitions.
When you step into STIR your guests will be wowed by the stylish comfort of the expansive space that includes a professional grade kitchen, a full bar area with seating for eight, and a comfortable living room that features multiple flat-screen televisions with a fully integrated sound system.

Tables can be arranged in a farm-style configuration for a large dinner party or into smaller groupings. If weather permits, the outdoor area adds another element of ambience, with tables, space for a bar set up and patio heaters for chillier nights.

Whether you are considering hosting a dinner party, a family celebration, an office party, or a festive holiday party, STIR offers a warm and inviting venue for up to 125 people. Better yet, by having your event at STIR, you rid yourself of all the work and stress that goes along with being a host, and allow yourself instead to be present and engaged with your guests.

“We tell our clients that all they have to do is show up for their own party,” said Susan Diehl, catering director for STIR. “We will have their drink waiting for them.” Diehl works with the host on every detail to make sure the event is exactly as he or she envisions. “We do it all for them, from the ordering, to the food preparation and service, to the clean up,” Diehl said. “Our job is to make our host feel like a guest at their own party.”
