Planning Your Summer Outdoor Party Now
February 11, 2022
There may be snow on the ground, but believe it or not, summer is quickly approaching. Wouldn’t it be nice to celebrate the end of cold weather by throwing a celebratory party? A good party requires ample amounts of preparation. Here’s how you can start planning your epic summer outdoor party with Buckin’ Wild.
Choose a Theme
One of the first things you need to decide on is a theme for your outdoor party. Will you go classy and elegant, or do you want more of a rustic, country theme? Either way, your theme will determine how you go about planning your party. It will determine things like food choices, activities, and entertainment.
Send Invites
The sooner you send out invitations for your summer outdoor party, the more likely it will be for all your guests to show up. Make a list of the people you want to invite, then whittle it down to a desirable number. Keep in mind that, typically, only three-quarters of invitees will actually show up. You can also utilize social media to invite guests and promote your summer party.
Plan the Menu
Food is one of the most important aspects of a good party. If you’re planning a western-themed party, opt for barbecue-specific food items like:
- Baby back ribs
- Grilled corn on the cob
- Cornbread
- Baked beans
- Macaroni and cheese
You can either plan on cooking the food yourself or hire a professional catering company. If you do choose to hire a professional catering company, be sure to book them well in advance of your party.
Decide on Activities
What will you and your guests be doing at your outdoor party? Will there be music? Will there be physical activities? Determine how you want to entertain your guests throughout your party. You don’t want anyone getting bored at your party. A great way to entertain guests is by renting a mechanical bull. They provide a fun and safe way for guests of all ages to entertain themselves.
Stock Up On Supplies
Stocking up on supplies for your party now will help you save money. Since your party is months away, you can search for the latest deals and promotions. You can buy things in stages as opposed to buying everything at once. Lastly, by stocking up on supplies early, you ensure that you’ll have exactly what you need for your party.
