Choosing the Right Type of Location for a Garden Party
Gardens create the most beautiful event settings for weddings, baby showers, and other celebrations. A centrally located rooftop garden or a house with manicured lawns can host bachelorette parties, intimate weddings, and everything else. Here are more venue options to inspire your decision.
Villas – Fancy Parties. Rent a villa for a wedding or retirement party. You'll have full command of the space, including restrooms and dining spaces.
Family Houses – Comfortable Hosting. These event spaces have plenty of room to celebrate, space for the food setup so caterers can have free reign, and a dining table in case you need to seat anyone for their meal.
Restaurants – All Events. There's practically no event a restaurant can't host; it's one of the most flexible event settings you can rent in any city. Book a location with patio seating or a garden room for your rehearsal dinner or reception.
Poolside Patios – Pool Parties. Pool locations are dual event venues; you can host a pool party or poolside celebration. Decorate the place with uplights, balloons, and floating toys. A poolside patio is also excellent for proposals, micro weddings, and other intimate gatherings.
Loft Studios – Graduation Parties. Loft studios with outdoor locations are great for graduation parties. A photo booth decorated with flowers and fun props can inspire creative pictures.
Garden Party Location Must-Haves
The goal is for everything to go as planned, but it's a plus if the party ends up being the talk of the town. Follow our must-have checklist to identify the best space out of Giggster's ocean of top choices.
Do you have a power supply? When the venue is surrounded by greenery, there's a chance you won't have enough electrical outlets for a DJ setup, dance floor, and lighting. Get the wiring done right so there are no dark spots. Another great option is to have a professional contractor offer suggestions.
Do you need a private space? Some parties need private spaces. For example, a corporate team-building event may need space for breakout groups. Rent screens, fences, or hedges to divide the space.
Is the space safe? Plant debris can often create slippery pathways, which can be a hazard, especially for evening events. Clear the paths and ensure no excess water seeps into the party area.
Planning Your Garden Party
Planning a garden party can be an absolute delight. But getting it right can turn into a nightmare at any minute. It would help if you considered hiring a party planner to handle the heavy lifting so you can enjoy yourself and spend time with guests. Find venues like **UPDATED**Bright brownstone in Crown Heights that need very little maintenance and concentrate on the beauty of the place rather than fixing it up too much. Here are other ideas that can help:
Pick the Perfect Date and Time – The weather matters; summer and spring are the best seasons for outdoor celebrations. Giggster provides a world of possibilities, letting you filter your search and book a venue ahead of time.
Create a Guest List – A guest count helps when searching for a venue; you'll know if the venue has capacity for your guests. Create the best layout with ample seating and standing space for guests.
Decorate the Space – The best part of a garden party is the natural beauty. Well-maintained gardens don't need much; use uplights on rose bushes, string lights in the trees, and candlelights on the tables. Also, play background music to add to the atmosphere.
Set the Menu – Serve finger sandwiches, mini croissants, cheese, and fruit platters. Wash it down with wine, champagne, iced teas, and mocktails. Ensure guests are served promptly; hiring a caterer or bartender is helpful.
Garden Party Hidden Costs
To impress guests, throwing a party in the perfect location is all you need, but the little details also matter. The decor, what you serve, and entertainment can cost a tidy sum, and on top of it all, there are usually hidden costs when you book a table at a restaurant or reserve a garden in a full buyout.
Have you considered the cost of the outdoor space?
The great outdoors, whether a garden party venue or a backyard, requires tenting, restrooms, and catering setup. Outdoor furniture, heating, dance floors, and other setups can be costly. It's helpful to lease a venue with these facilities, and it's a plus if they are included in the rental rate.
Will you have to pay for maintenance?
Some gardens need regular tending. Unkempt outdoor venues may look unsightly, especially for weddings and other elegant occasions. Ensure the area gets cleaned and cleared, the gardens are maintained, and the walking pathways are clear of plant debris. Check beforehand if you will be charged for additional landscaping, lawn repair, and more. This cost can go high, and you may be blindsided at the last moment.
Do you have to pay for extra lighting?
Garden party venues often have lighting to enhance the flora around them but not enough to host evening parties or events. You should check if you can get outside lighting to supplement what the venue has. Conversely, you should also ask the host if they are willing to put in additional lights and if you will be charged for them or if they are covered in the rental cost.
