celebrate!
though a BBQ party is all about the food, it doesn’t stop you from hanging up some simple garden decorations & putting on some music to give your BBQ a party vibe. If you don’t have enough chairs for your summer party, you can get creative with the seating arrangements by using blankets, pillows, pallets and even hay bales! Fill a trough or pretty metal bucket with ice to chill drinks. Add home grown flower arrangements using backyard clippings and place in vintage containers.

t last, the warm weather has started to arrive and that calls for one thing… a summer party!

Set the Mood
Make a special playlist to turn on for nice background noise while people are chatting to help to create a fun atmosphere.
And No Matter What…
Have a backup plan just in case it rains.
