Depending on the occasion, you may also need to decorate the garden. If it is a cocktail party with colleagues, then you can opt for a more neutral, minimalist decoration.

At a garden party, a lot of things are often forgotten in the hustle and bustle. For example, the cozy blankets for the guests in case it gets cool in the evening.Or the lightingnot just around the terrace but throughout the garden. In larger gardens, for example, signs can show the way. The flowers are also important. These are often forgotten or underestimated, but they create a feel-good atmosphere at the table. Fragrant plants like lavender are not only beautiful, but can also keep mosquitoes away.
“Mosquitoes” is another keyword. In summer, you can easily expect these annoying insects at an outdoor party. Since the guests themselves may not have thought of the necessary protective products, it is recommended that you obtain creams or sprays suitable for the occasion and have them available for those who are not prepared. Ultimately, you want guests to feel comfortable and have fun. They will definitely thank you. Although these are not decorations, we didn't want to withhold this tip from you.
Paper lanterns are a wonderful way to illuminate the upper areas of the garden. It is best to combine them with fairy lights, whose bulbs you simply hang in the lantern. Decorate trees, pergolas, canopies or other structures in the garden in this way and create a friendly party decoration that will enchant everyone.
The previously mentioned flowers as table decorations make a beautiful impression, and not just during the day. Even at an evening party, they should not be missing from the table and serve as a complement to your potted plants on the terrace. This is precisely when they appear mystical thanks to subtle candlelight and make the table more inviting and beautiful. In addition, the romantic flames are also reflected from glasses and other dishes.
Depending on how much space there is on the table, you shouldn't overdo it with the flowers. They should be accents and not take up the entire table. Guarantee freedom of movement when eating and leave enough space for dishes and cutlery. This is also part of the decoration and should not be underestimated. Use matching tableware colors depending on the occasion of the party.
Look what a beautiful impression a simple decoration like this can make. You can create the perfect atmosphere without much effort. For a movie night with friends, a lot of wood was used in the design, creating a rustic atmosphere. Pleasant light is provided by candles in large lanterns and fairy lights distributed over the seating area using wooden beams. This creates the perfect light for watching films that is not too intrusive but still illuminates the garden well.
Garden decorations can also be made cheaply yourself, which is not only fun but also gives the entire ambience an individual look. You can paint or glue lanterns or make lanterns and lampshades for the fairy lights. Muffin paper cases can be used for this. If you can't find items that match the party theme, DIY projects are just the right solution. Make garlands yourself from any materials or decorate balloons with glitter, paper or other things. You can also fold napkins in interesting ways or use their motifs for interesting decoupage projects. Without a doubt, imagination is required here. But once you've made a few things, you'll quickly want more.
