If you are planning to do some entertaining this summer, why not incorporate a fun summer party theme?
It creates a whole new level of excitement for your guests and makes the entertaining process much easier on you. When you choose a theme it narrows down the work and thought you have to put into your party because it creates some boundaries. Instead of choosing from thousands of recipes, you can select those that go along with your theme. A theme also creates guidelines for decorations, invitations, and color schemes.
Here is an A-Z selection of summer party themes. Have fun with them!
Summer Theme Party Ideas

BAD (Beverages, Appetizers, Dessert)

Garden’s Bounty
Home on the Range
Ice Cream Social
Jazz Fest
Kid’s Day
Luau

Rainy Day (create your own rain with sprinklers outside in front of a picture window. You could even put it close to the front door so guest would get wet if they don’t have their umbrella.)
Sippers & Sandals
Taste of Tuscany
Under the Stars
View the Sunset
White-Out (this could be quite lovely – use all white, cream and clear glass serving pieces with white linens and ask guests to wear white. The food would provide brilliant pops of color. Would be beautiful outside with the colors of nature as the backdrop.)
Xmas in July
Yummy Bites
Zucchini Fest (Okay – so this one is stretching it a bit…. but it could be quite tasty: fried zucchini for an appetizer, maybe some eggplant Parmesan with zucchini for a main dish and, of course, chocolate zucchini cake for dessert!)
Whatever themes you use for your summer entertaining, have fun with them!
Happy Entertaining!
