Celebrate Spring With A Show-Stopper Home Party

It’s finally Easter weekend and I am so ready for a double bank holiday and two extra days off work for a super long weekend – it’s about time!

In fact, Spring is a season of renewal. Nature blooms in a million different colours, and, as if responding to the same stimulus, floral patterns also come on display in gorgeous new dresses and blouses. Everything changes once the spring months arrive. From daylight to sunshine positivity, it’s a season to celebrate!

So what better way to make the most of the spring than by throwing a memorable and fantastic spring party at home. What is a spring party? It’s simple. It is a celebration of the end of winter and the start of the warmer months. It is the perfect excuse to showcase your new home interior decor and party host skills. Are you ready for a spring show? Let’s get it started! 

Create a seasonal menu

Welcome to spring! It is finally time to indulge in warm weather snacks! You can even sit outside and enjoy deliciously refreshing treats if the weather allows. But, even if it is too cold to sit in the garden, you can still prepare these simple recipes to wow your guests. 

You can keep things fresh and nutritious by welcoming everyone with a homemade mixed berry cocktail, which is the equivalent of a boozy smoothie. Make sure to add plenty of ice to keep the texture smooth and watery and dilute the alcohol. Spring food tends to be lighter, so you don’t want to serve something too strong to your guests. 

Fish and fresh vegetables are the best light option for a spring menu. But you can replace it with grilled meat if the weather is right for a bbq. 

The best conclusion to a delightful meal is a homemade fresh dessert, such as a homemade ice cream bowl or an uplifting frappucino with ice, coffee, milk and a creamy finishing touch. 

Dress your table with style and colours

The spring colour palette is complex, depending on your preferences. You could create a golden warm spring decor on your table using shades such as buttercup, soft teal, lime, sand, and coral. You could pair your tablecloth and your plates and bowls. Mediterranean ceramics such as https://veranoceramics.co.uk/ are always a fantastic choice for a warm colour palette. 

Yet, if you prefer something a little more subtle and grown-up, a light pastel palette would include pastel jade, peach, vanilla, pebble grey, and even baby blue shades. Pastel hues are better suited for a minimalist interior style as they often carry accents that harmonise with preferred interior paints such as beige, cream, grey, pastel pink, etc. 

Surprise your guests with a centrepiece

Get out of winter hibernation in style with a unique table centrepiece. The centrepiece can set the mood for the day, adding a unique look and feel to your table. This is especially useful when you need to dress oversized tables, such as buffet or long dinner tables. These often feel empty when with all the plates and dishes, which is where a seasonal centrepiece can make a great deal of difference. For an evening party, you can add some lighting to the table with a fun egg candle centrepiece using dyed eggshells filled with a tealight. You can also turn glass milk bottles into rustic vases with a little DIY magic. You can string together many glass jars to create a cottage-inspired display of fresh flowers. Alternatively, a galvanised bucket can also steal the show as an improvised vase! 

Party decor all the way

There is no celebration without a party balloon garland. Thankfully, party arches are a lot easier to make than they appear when you follow this smart tutorial, https://www.you.co.uk/how-to-make-a-balloon-arch/. Balloon arches are an instant Instagram winner because they instantly add a festive and elegant feeling. If you are going to make one yourself, the good news is that you can start in advance, as arches tend to last for several weeks. You will need balloons of different sizes and colours matching your colour palette, balloon tapes, and a pump to inflate your balloons. You can use existing structures such as your curtain rails to attach the tape, or you can also buy a purpose-built structure. 

Find unique party games

Games are the highlight of the party. Most people forget about entertainment and often focus on music or drinks instead. More often than not, the conversation will naturally come to an end within an hour, leaving your guests to feel awkward. But the addition of fun social games such as the Werewolf game can keep the conversation going for a long time. It’s also a great way to break the ice when people don’t know each other very feel! 

Spring parties are ready to start. It’s time to invite guests to celebrate the start of a new season. After all, you need to show off your new seasonal home decor and style!
