Garden Party Ideas

Planning a Summer Garden Party and wondering where to start? Our guide will enable you to enjoy a stress free event in your own garden or al fresco venue. Garden parties can be for so many reasons; from a birthday party, corporate party, hen or stag to a general party. An easy way to design an outdoor event is to have a theme in mind. Some of our favourites are below:
 
Enchanted Garden or Alice in Wonderland/ Onederland
Family Fun Days / Easter Egg Hunt / Patriotic
Festival / Ibiza
English Garden / Vintage Tea Party
Hawaiian Tropics / Beach Party
 
This theme is very popular with all ages. Younger guests enter a mythical forest with touches of magic & surprises.
 
Older guests enter an immersive atmosphere with colour and ambient lighting.
 
Guests love being experimental with the unexpected. An Enchanted Garden or Alice in Wonderland theme can be scalable to any event type or size. From an intimate private party to a grand corporate summer event or festival.
 
A VIP entrance carpet can set the tone, we can supply a purple carpet or even a green carpet.

Floating drapes, a photobooth with a custom backdrop, topiary plants can be used here, chair and table covers.
 
We can design and create bespoke props for your enchanted theme. Part of an enchanted garden party is having a secret place for guests to visit. This could be a small teepee with pillows, books and toys for children, or beanbags and a cocktail bar for adults.
 
If your party goes into the evening – lighting is important. We can incorporate colours to enhance the theme. LED light up furniture allows you to have vibrant coloured seating. Rustic reclaimed seating works well also.
 
For Alice in Wonderland themes we have amazing props for hire. Our themed props make your garden party unforgettable.

Family Fun Days / Easter Egg Hunt / Sporting Events

Planning a sports day, Easter egg hunt or want to celebrate a sporting occasion such as Wimbledon? Garden parties are great for all occasion. We have some amazing giant garden games, to bring out your competitive side. We can supply different types of chairs and tables for guests to sit at.
 
Gazebos and patio heaters are an essential incase the Great British weather is not the best. TV hire is also popular with large events like Coronation’s and sporting events. We offer large TV’s in gazebos so you can watch the occasion from the comfort of your garden.

Outdoor Cinema Movie night and Sports nights

A very popular garden party theme, especially since Covid is outdoor cinema hire. It is the perfect way to celebrate a special occasion from the comfort of your home. From dusk/evening onwards, this allows for a private movie screening.
 
Outdoor cinemas compliment themes as an extra for younger guests. This allows the adults to enjoy the party whilst the kids enjoy their favourite film.
 

Ibiza Festival Theme

This theme is very popular with hen and stag parties or birthdays. Bring Glastonbury/ Coachella to your home! Deck chairs and fairy lights or festoon lighting come to mind. If it is an evening event then LED furniture, black and white dance floor is a must as well as a good bar serving your favourite drinks. A stage with DJ or a live musician such a saxophonist to listen to whilst the sun goes down.

English Garden Vintage Tea Party

 
Think white table cloths, afternoon tea, vintage mis-matching china, bunting, flowers in vases. A bar serving chilled elderflower, champagne, pimms and pink G and T’s! Staff are very useful here to help serve your finger sandwich platters, scones and cakes.
 

Hawaiian Tropics Luau / Beach Party

Rustic bars and seating with a BBQ come to mind. Hints of Blue and white. Fire pits, smores, ice cream, flower-covered shirts & BBQ food!
 
If you are lucky enough to have a pool – inflatables are a must!
 
We can supply a BBQ food caterer and fire pits for you to sit at. Garden games including Giant Jenga, volley ball, badminton, Connect 4 and beer pong! Even bean bags and deck chairs!
