Are you planning on throwing a summer BBQ party in your backyard? If yes, then you have come to the right place to get inspiration. I have compiled a few ideas that you can use to throw an awesome house party. While some of the ideas are a little mainstream, I still think they look stunning when executed properly.

A Floor-Sitting

Floor-sittings are my favorite for several reasons. They are quite easy to set up and they are super fun. All you need are a few wooden crates. I prefer painting them with creamy white spray paint to make them look a bit polished.

Cover it with a white tablecloth and lay the whole setup on a lined blanket with some cushions. It would give a cozy appearance and it requires minimum effort.

A Stash of Healthy Snacks

My choice is often a fruit salad, but sometimes I don’t have the time for that or I don’t feel like putting too much effort into it.

An easy getaway is arranging a centerpiece full of fruits. Drag your coffee table out in the backyard. Put some chopped up fruits and veggies in beautiful glass bowls of various sizes. Adorn the coffee table with a vibrant-colored tablecloth and your bowls of healthy munchies. Your guests would LOVE the treat.

Take Photography to the Next Level

What’s the fun of parties if you don’t take photos? These days, photo props and photo booths are all the rage. But I won’t advise buying these things from the market because they are generally very costly.

Instead, buy some materials from a stationery shop and make your photo props at home. Make a large photo frame from cardboard and hang it from a tree, you can decorate it with paper flowers or even real flowers and leaves.

Another fun photography idea is keeping a Polaroid camera. They are not very expensive, and you can take photos of the guests that they can take home after the party.

Fun Games

You can set up many different fun games for the summer party. One of my favorites is the water balloon fight. Water balloons come in all sizes and colors and various interesting shapes. You can fill them up with colored or plain cold water and stash them all in a basket for a fun and spontaneous water fight.

Another exciting game for your summer party is the color fight. You might have seen the Indian festival “Holi” where they throw colors at each other. You can use chemical-free color powder for the color fight, but I must warn you, it can get quite messy.
