Summer with its many pleasant, warm days is approaching. How about welcoming summer with an outdoor party? Here are a few tips for the summer party to ensure it is a success.
1. The same ambience outside as inside
View the outside of your home as an extension of the inside. For example, if your home is country-style, bring the same vibe outside with a few mismatched wicker furniture, rocking chairs, old fruit boxes, shawls, and so on. If your home is decorated in a modern style, keep it the same for the terrace or veranda.
Set up the acrylic chairs (they're weatherproof and easy to clean), pull out the glass candle holders, lacquered tray and bowls. Don't forget to apply the color scheme that excels indoors to outdoors too. If the colors are different in each room, choose the colors of the room you walk through most often. You should use them to decorate the terrace.
2. Variety by changing areas
At a party indoors, you would probably drink cocktails in the kitchen, then have dinner in the dining room and end the evening with a digestif in the living room. Try to organize the garden party in the same way, moving from one place to another.
If you have a larger area available, you can mark different areas with a rug. A fire pit creates a unique atmosphere and pleases both children and adults. Don't banish your guests to sitting at one table all evening.
3. Comfort is key
Make the different areas as comfortable as they would be indoors. Use cushions and pillows to add both coziness and color. Also add a blanket or two.
Distribute different candles in different containers. They contribute to a romantic and cozy atmosphere and also distract annoying insects from you and your guests. After all, it would be terrible if you had to move your party indoors because of mosquitoes and midges.
4. Set the right mood
The right atmosphere is crucial for a successful garden party. If your garden isn't blooming at the moment, place a few pots of colorful flowers in each area. If you have large plants indoors, you can move them outside for the party. In addition to the plants, add some bouquets of flowers.
The right light is also one of our tips for the summer party. It is important to ensure happiness and good mood. Set up tea lights and holy candles and use various everyday containers as candle holders: mason jars, lanterns, water or wine glasses. They all look great and bring a warm, friendly atmosphere to your party.
