Laid-Back Summer Rehearsal Dinner Ideas for a Backyard Bash

Share

Outdoor party collage with food, drinks, and decorations

A Summer rehearsal dinner in the backyard could be fun and festive with the right planning! A tasty menu, some cute invites, and a few great details are all you need!

MENUStart with a Tea bar with a selection of refreshing iced teas: California Iced Tea Sweet Raspberry Lime Iced Tea Mango Iced Tea Follow that up with a Strawberry and Feta Salad; a lively mixture of lettuce, strawberries, almonds, and feta is tossed with a tangy oil and vinegar dressing! Then a great barbecued gourmet burger. Gourmet burgers with all kinds of fun toppings!! How would you take your gourmet burger? Gorgonzola cheese, roma tomatoes, crispy onions, sauteed mushrooms, Bermuda onions, crumbled blue cheese, sun dried tomatoes, guacamole, or how about a spicy jalapeno spread? This is super unique and something that I think that all of the guests will really appreciate and enjoy! Finish it all of with some S’more Brownies!

FAVORSHow about a monogramed drink cozy from Pottery Barn for each of your guests?
Drink Dispenser from Pottery Barn.
Don’t forget the drink umbrellas for your fancy iced teas!
You can find paper lanterns galore at Luna Bazaar.
