It is that time of the year for end year corporate parties and family reunions. The norm is to hold these parties in ballrooms and halls. Perhaps it is time to break the routine if you are a party organizer and plan one outdoors. Most people will jump at the opportunity to have a garden party or a cookout as the fresh air and the free space brings out a wild side.

How do you make an outdoor party one that will be talked about for sometime? There are key ingredients to a great bash. Key among them is the location. An ideal location for a big party is usually a sports field or a backyard for a family cookout. The grounds should be convenient for everyone, ideally someplace that is widely known and easily accessible by public transport. To prevent a washout or heat strokes, provide some shelter. Get quality Marquees and Party Tents with consideration for space and time. Next are the attendees. If it is a corporate party, be sure to send your invites to a few who is who in the field of the company’s business. This will make the attendees, feel success rubbing off on to them from these power people. After the invites the next item is the theme of the party. An outdoor party should have a free and relaxed theme to go along with being outdoors. Setting a tuxedo theme to a garden party will stifle it, look out for ethnic for example Hawaiian themes or sporty themes with sports wear being encouraged. The key thing on themes is to let all attending know of it to avoid embarrassments and discomfort for those that may stick out.

So you have you the list and theme. Next should be the fun item. A party isn’t a party without fun right? So how do you put fun into the party? The two obvious fun items are food and music. Spicy food and light alcohol drinks are essential, with consideration for those who do not indulge of course. As for the music, have some live band especially a popular artiste. If working with a big budget, hire the best there is as chances are most of the attendees have never seen the artiste live before.

With all these considerations, a good party can be spoilt by a sloppy and incompetent Master of Ceremony. Have an experienced M.C who has the ability to set the pace of the party. Most will go for a comedian so as to keep the good humor. That is about it. Go on and organize a successful bash.
