Outdoor Party Lighting Ideas
Summer is just around the corner and you are probably planning your outdoor parties. Lighting is an important element that shouldn't be forgotten. If your yard doesn't have the perfect lighting for your party, there are some quick lighting options that will light up your party in no time.
Cordless lighting options are the best for table tops so you don't have to tape down cords and risk your guests tripping. Candles are an old stand -by that gives off a nice glow. There are candle holders that are wind resistant, such as traditional Huricane Lamps, so you won't have to relight your candles all night. If you have umbrella tables, a centerpiece that wraps around the umbrella post looks beautiful. If you want a maintenance free and more colorful option, tryVessel's Candela 4 Lights. They are lit by rechargeable battery so they won't blow out.
For ambient lighting, fire pits or torches are always fun for outdoor parties. If you have a beautiful tree, fountain, or piece of artwork in your backyard, lighting it from the ground up is a stunning way to enhance your party's atmosphere. Target has a Solar Flood/Spotlight available on-line that will eliminate the need for unsightly and hazardous cords.
Be creative with other outdoor lighting ideas too. Place Christmas tree lights in your trees or line your patio with them. Hang interesting string lights from trees or awnings. You can always get a festive set of string lights and hang them along the eaves or under the patio umbrellas. The brightly colored Candeloos by Vessel which are very whimsical and can be placed anywhere because they are cordless.
Don't forget to light footpaths for your guests. Target has a few different styles of solar path lights, such as the Solar Metal Wedge Lights in Silver. If there are children coming to your party or if the path is in a shady place, use theseCandela Pro Lights from Vessel. They are cool to the touch and rechargeable.
With these suggestions, and your imagination, your summer party will be a hit. Your yard will sparkle and create the perfect ambiance. Your guests will think you hired an electrician just for this occasion.
