Fall into the new season!
As the summer comes to an end you may start to think that it’s only a matter of time before Jack Frost comes knocking on our doors. But don’t worry because we still have the wonderful fall season to look forward too! Nothing can bring you down when you think about warm Apple cider, the smell of pumpkin spiced lattes, and feeling that crisp outdoor air! Well, if that still won’t sell you, then why not throw an event to get you in the mood? Here are some great fall entertaining tips that will get you excited and ready for the new season!
DÉCOR
What makes a good event is style and decoration! There are so many amazing fall décor tips and tricks that can help spice up your event space and your overall event.
Centerpieces
Besides flowers of course, the easiest way to make a fall themed centerpiece is with pumpkins! You can spray paint them, bedazzle them, or dress them up with natural foliage. Perfect, easy, and fits an autumn theme!
Lanterns
Lanterns are a great way to decorate for an event. Not only do they add light, but they also create a certain ambiance. Fill your lanterns with pinecones, acorns, candles, or even fresh leaves from outside. They are a fun simple touch to make your event space look great! Just make sure to take the wind into account.
And of course…
Flowers!
Flowers are the key to brightening up any room. One way you can make your arrangement blend in with the theme is by adding some seasonal fruit, vegetables, or herbs. You can even use a pumpkin as a vase! Just carve and clean out the middle, place a beautiful arrangement inside, and you have a great centerpiece or decoration for your event!
DRINKS
Besides the beautiful decor, the next best thing for an event is booze! Entertain your guest with a seasonal signature beverage. Put them in the mood for those cool crisp fall days. Try whipping up one of our favorites- hard cider sangria!

PARTY FAVORS
After your event is over it’s sometimes a nice idea to leave your guests with a fun-parting gift. Candy apples are a great way to stay within the fall theme as well as leave everyone with a sweet tasty dessert.
