A Garden Party

I just love this idea for a night time garden party. I found this image on New York Social Diary a few months ago and I have been lusting over it ever since. I am celebrating my 30th Birthday later this year and I would just love to have a party like this!! I'll keep dreaming shall I??!!

  1. Anna did you know that my wedding was at a garden. I think is the best place to make parties at. Go for it

  6. That looks so wonderful! I also like the thought of having a party outside in the dark. The problem is that when you live this north the nights are allways either light or cold.

  7. I went to a party and the hostess had a paper lantern chandelier constructed and the lanterns were in white, ecru and the slightest pink and were all hanging from grosgrain and satin ribbons from a large circle hanging from the ceiling of a tent. It made for an amazing focal point. I thought it was a great take on the usual.

  8. I think that this looks so dreamy! I celebrated my 30th only a couple of weeks ago, and I had a Bollywood theme. Indian catering, everyone in saree's and bollywood movies on a big screen. It was a blast. There's no better occasion to live out a party fantasy! Let us know what you end up doing!

  10. Stunning photo. That would be an awesome party. I wish we had a big enough outdoor space. We have a small deck that fit one small table and 4 chairs. Great for us and one other couple, but not a party.
