Everything You Need To Host A Garden Party

The new season of Bridgerton is dropping on May 16th, and we can’t be more excited! Why not kick off the new season with some festivities to get you in the mood? We are talking about hosting a garden party. 

We will break down a few key parts for you, but find all the details including apparel and accessories in our Small Talk Spring Magazine!

Plan The Party

01. Pick the Location

This is the part that sets the scene for the party! Decide where you would like to host the party. Will it be a lush backyard, a tranquil park, or maybe a stunning patio

 02. Decide on a Theme

This is not necessary, but why not have a theme? It sure adds a sprinkle of fun to your shindig!

03. Get Your Decorations

This is where you get to be creative! Whether you craft your own decorations, hit up thrift stores, or splurge on fancy pieces, the sky’s the limit!

 04. Select Your Menu

Whip up a menu that’s as simple or bougie as you fancy. Check out page 32 for a sneak peek at our menu inspiration!

 05. Plan an Activity or Game

An activity can be an enjoyable way to break the ice or centre the evening around. Get creative with candle painting, craft a floral crown, or dive into some board game fun!

 06. Capture all the Memories

What better way to remember all the memories that you’re about to make than by taking photos? We recommend taking them with a film or disposable camera for that vintage touch!



It's In The Details

Small details can elevate a party and make it memorable for your guests. Consider these simple additions to transform your garden party into a special occasion:

  • Fold napkins into bows
  • Decorate with vases of flowers
  • Use mismatched tea cups
  • Create elegant name cards
  • Illuminate with plenty of candles
  • Add flowered ice cubes to drinks
  • Tie bows on glass stems
  • Use vintage glassware
  • Tie florals to napkins
  • Serve food on themed plates
  • Decorate desserts with pressed flowers
