Want to throw a garden party that has never been witnessed before in your area? Well, you need a proper plan that takes into account the garden furniture you will need and the lighting as well as the color scheme to light up, brighten as well as enliven the event. The plan should also include beautiful invitations, food and drinks, utensils and barbecue grills as well as dress codes for both men and women who will attend the party. But how do you get started if you have never organized a garden party before? Well, here is a step-by-step guide to organizing such a party.
1. Garden Furniture
Planning an extraordinary party starts with thinking about the appropriate
furniture for the event. Of course, your regular home furniture does not fit
the bill because they are definitely not designed for the outdoors. Garden
furniture is the best option. You can buy your own garden furniture or lease
some online. There are many companies that specialize in this kind of
furniture, including but not limited to Alice's Garden.
Make sure that you are looking into all of the options that are available to you, and thinking about which ones would look best in your garden. For example, poly outdoor furniture is gaining in popularity right now so that might be something to consider. Think carefully about whether you want a particular color or style before you go shopping for the furniture so that you know what you’re searching for.
2. Party Utensils
Your regular utensils will not serve you effectively in preparing foods
and serve those alongside drinks to your guests. You will need to look for the
right utensils when it comes to a garden party. Again, you can either buy your
own utensils or lease some. For many homeowners, leasing is the best option
because it does not require as much cash as buying does.
3. Garden Party Supplies
You will need balloons, garden party lights, one or a few trampolines
and tents, an outdoor stereo system, banners, signs, bottle openers, garbage
cans, and many other supplies to throw a great party. The greatest part is that
you can lease some of these supplies if you do not want to purchase due to one
reason or another.
4. Food and Drinks
Apart from furniture, food and drinks are the other hardest part when it
comes to organizing a major garden party. You want to look for various recipes,
ingredients, party flavors and drinks to be able to feed and provide beverages
to your guests. You want to look for people who will help you in preparing and
serving those foods and drinks. Hiring a professional catering service is the
easiest option in this case. With one, you do not have to worry about this
part.
5. Party Dress Codes for Men and Women
The dress codes for men and women that you select can make or break your
party. Regular attires will not help your event. Be creative in choosing the
best dress codes for the event. For example, for men, a classy look such as a
pair of dress pants with a dress shirt and a wool vest matched with a pair of
black, or brown leather boots would certainly not disappoint. For women, a
white evening cocktail dress matched with a pair of red lace-up heels would
definitely look awesome.
Final Thoughts
Organizing a great garden party need not be a cumbersome process. You
will need only a few things to throw an unforgettable party. These include
garden furniture, party utensils, and supplies, as well as ingredients,
flavors, and drinks. Finally, you will need to figure out the best dress codes
for men and women who will attend the event. When your fabulous event has concluded, don't forget about the personalized thank you notes!
