How to prepare your garden for a formal event

September 27, 2018 Garden Designs

Formal events are pretty difficult to organize, not mentioning how complicated it is to find the right venue for hosting them. Wouldn’t it be easier if you’d organize the formal event in your backyard? Saying goodbye to all the taxes you would pay when renting a venue, to the limitations the venue sets when it comes to seating and the many other problems that may occur with the location seems like a dream come true. Well, this is your lucky day. Reading this article will change your perspective on organizing formal events by teaching you how to prepare your own garden for hosting a formal event successfully. Here you’ll find all the details related to decorations, seating and rain plans.

How to prepare your garden for a formal event

Decoration options

For a formal event, the theme you choose for decorations should be quite simple and elegant. You can’t go wrong with some lace ribbon and a neuter colour palette. Buying fresh flowers and placing them on the tables should complement the garden looks. If your backyard has freshly cut lawn and beautiful flowers already, then you don’t have to stress too much with decorations. A ribbon here and there, along with pretty stationery for each guest should do the job just right. Besides decorations, pay tremendous attention to the ambiance you create in the garden. For instance, play classical or jazz music on the background and choose the appropriate lighting options. If you host the event at night, keep bugs away from your guest. If you host it during the day, bring some fans to the party.

Guests and seats

The second tip is to deal with seating long before the event. After creating your guest list, make sure that your backyard is spacious enough to host everyone. You need to find the best seating options and buy or rent the appropriate furniture for the event. In case you ran out of options, you can take your indoors dining chairs and repurpose them for the event. Since you might be worried about sudden rain, ensure the space for any sort of situation. For a formal event, you need to pay more attention to the seating because you can’t afford to make mistakes. Each guest has to have a previously set place to the table. This way, you are avoiding uncomfortable situations regarding the event’s organization. Ask people beforehand if they prefer sitting in a certain spot.

Surviving the weather

Rain is the biggest enemy of outdoor events, so you have to think in advance to prevent the devastating effects of bad weather. Since you might bring your indoor furniture outside, you want to make sure that – in the eventuality of rainy weather – everything stays intact, including your guests. In order to do that, you should either use umbrellas, organize the event in a garden pavilion or think about other methods to cover the seating area. Moving the party indoors is never a good option, unless you prepare a room specifically for this purpose.
