I am from Mississippi to, and what comes to my mind is having an old timey tractor or one of those old ford trucks pulling your float, then I would go out and cut a cedar tree to put on the trailor - I Would make it like the inside of a house, and have a gradma & grandpa sitting in rocking chairs next to the tree and the fire place with grandchildren gathered around either singing carols or have them reading the christmas story -

Try an old style lampost with carollers standing under it, singing selections from favourite carols. You could have a village backdrop with church steeple. Make sure your carollers dress in old fashioned dress, long dresses, cloaks, bonnets, top hats, tails, breeches. etc.

I've posted this elsewhere but I still love it! The "chestnuts roasting on an openfire", have a family sitting around a fireplace roasting chestnuts, you can even have a christmas tree..have the song playing as well.
