HOSTING THE PERFECT SUMMER PARTY!

Trees and flowers are blooming, the lake is bustling with the sounds of the boats on the water, and the sun is shining - yes the Summer Season is here!  What better way to celebrate the season than by throwing the perfect summer party with family and friends.  Luxury Lake Home would like to offer some fun tips and ideas to make sure your event is a success!

CHOOSE A THEME & SET THE SCENE

The first step in planning the perfect Summer party is to decide on a theme. Whether it will be a backyard get-together, a dock party, or a celebration by the pool at your luxury lake home, once the decision is made, the rest of the planning will easily fall into place. Once the theme is set you can send invitations with details so that everyone will be party-ready when they arrive.

GET ORGANIZED

Organization is key when hosting a Summer party! Writing your thoughts and ideas down, making lists, and checking them twice will ensure a successful party experience. This will also cut down on the stress that comes with party planning as you will have something to reference so that nothing is overlooked!

MAKE IT EASY

As we all know, it's easy to get carried away to try to make everything picture-perfect, and we end up not enjoying the event ourselves! Summer is a fun and casual time of the year here at the Lake of the Ozarks! Use things that you already have on hand and ask for help with the planning so that you can enjoy the party with family and friends as well!

MAKE YOUR GUEST LIST

One key element to ensure a successful party is to surround yourself with fun and interesting people who enjoy common interests and activities. Keeping it smaller will create a cozy, inviting atmosphere so that everyone feels like they are part of the event.


PLAN THE MENU

Keeping things casual and easy is the way to go these days. Food bars are a great way to make the serving of food easy. Guests can choose what they want to create their own meals and make serving a breeze. You can have a variety of food tables ranging from Pizza options, taco bars, burgers, and more - it's the perfect opportunity to get creative.  If you are pressed for time, or just plain don't want to do the preparation and cooking, consider having it catered.  There are great local restaurants that can do the work for you so all you have to do is enjoy it with your guests!

DON'T FORGET THE MUSIC

Whether you have your favorite playlist, or you are old-school and like to shuffle the CDs, music provides a great backdrop for guests to listen to and reminisce. You might even consider hiring one of our many local musicians to play for you and your guests to enjoy and dance the night away!

LIGHTING & DECORATIONS

Keep the decorations simple and the lighting intimate. Fresh flowers provide a beautiful centerpiece while creating an inviting aroma in the air. String lights or solar-powered walkway lights provide soft lighting to create the perfect ambiance for outdoor entertaining in the evenings.

These warm summer nights are just beginning and now is the perfect time to start planning. If you are in the market for a luxury lake home, now is the time to begin your search!
