Summer is approaching in New England! With gorgeous weather and less social distance guidelines in our future, it is time to start planning your big summer bash! It will probably be one of the first times in over a year that we are able to have all of your loved ones safely together again. Make your first summer party one for your and your loved ones to remember! Here are a few things you can do to make your first party of the season extra special.

Decor

You don’t have to live on the beach to throw a summer bash! This is the perfect opportunity to get creative with decor. You can make it beach-themed with sandals, waves, and beach balls everywhere, or keep it more minimal with neutral summer colors and string lights for the nighttime. No matter what your vibe may be, your guests will sincerely appreciate the added effort.

Games

No summer party is complete without a few games for guests to play! We are finally outside again and it is the perfect time to play some backyard games with your family and friends. If you already own things like a volleyball net or cornhole game set up, it is time to take them out of storage and get playing! Backyard volleyball and badminton are finally back.

BBQ

There is probably nothing better than a summer BBQ. Time to start up the grill and get cooking! Make sure there are available options for any guests who may have food allergies or restrictions, but other than that, there is no need to go crazy with catering, the best food is from the grill!

Drinks

Ice-cold drinks are essential for an outdoor summer get-together. Whether it be an adult party with adult beverages or your regular sodas, waters, and lemonade, the thing you need to make sure you have is ice! Whether you want to display your drinks with ice buckets or throw them in a cooler, your guests will just be happy to have an ice-cold drink on a hot summer day.
