Summer afternoons call for outdoor fun. It has surely happened to you that on a beautiful, sunny day, with the smell of freshly cut grass, you wanted to hang out with friends and relax at the last minute.
The organization of the picnic depends not only on the good weather and the time availability of your friends, but also on the choice of space and many accessories. It may sound complicated, but with a little ingenuity, even a pleasant gathering can turn into a wonderful party in your yard or terrace. We have prepared some ideas for you that will help you prepare the perfect party.
Garden bar
Load the bar cart with various drinks and accessories for cocktails. Guests will thus have access to a variety of drinks, which they can serve themselves, while you can enjoy socializing with friends.

Fill the basket with essentials
If the guests will be outdoors all the time, prepare a basket that hides various accessories inside. From mosquito spray, sunscreen, refreshing wipes.
Lots of candles
Your picnic area should also be decorated with a lot of candles, which you can place in different jars for pickling. This will ensure a romantic night.

You don't need a covered patio to create ambiance. If you do not have the possibility to hang lanterns, you can fill buckets with stones, place longer branches inside and hang lights, lanterns or candles in small jars on them.
Cutlery
Place the cutlery in glass jars that you have decorated with various ribbons.
Wrap the food in paper
If you have prepared sandwiches, you can cutely wrap them in different colored papers and tie them with strings. You can also do this with bread and buns.

Combine the water, sugar and chopped watermelon, then freeze the mixture until firm. Serve everything together in glasses or cups. It is a refreshing dessert that will please every guest.
Wine cubes
There is always a good time for wine at parties, so you can also prepare wine cubes. Add white and red wine to the ice molds and freeze everything together. Thus, your wine will stay pleasantly cold. You can also prepare various fruit and herbal ice cubes, which go well with various cocktails.
Fold in the fruit and feta
Ripe watermelon is a special treat, but take it a step further with feta slices and basil leaves.
Ice wine
Place an ice fruit light in a glass of white wine, which will pleasantly cool and refresh guests.
