Planning the Perfect summer garden party

With the long, hot summer fast approaching, why not think about planning your perfect, garden party for family and friends? Consider how many people you will cater for, does your garden have the space to encompass seating and tables for several guests?  Are you going to cook your food indoors, traditionally in the oven and then serve it outside or will you go completely alfresco and try a bar-b-que?

What drinks will you provide for your guests, how will you keep on top of refilling their glasses so they have a great time?  What about using a Portable Pop Up Bar so you don’t have to worry about running around making sure you guests have enough to drink?  Think about different music for the party, something fairly quiet so they can sit, eat and talk to each other.  Then something livelier so when the food has been eaten people can move around and dance if they want to.

If your party is going to extend into the evening then you will need to think about lighting and possibly heating if it goes cold. String up lots of fairy lights and invest in some large patio heaters, have battery powered candles on each table and bring out lots of portable lanterns.  Give your guests a summer party they will remember for the rest of the year, plan, prepare and produce a fantastic occasion enjoyed by all.
