Hosting a backyard Halloween party is a great way to celebrate the spooky holiday with friends and family. Here’s a guide on how to plan the perfect backyard Halloween party:
Plan the date and time: Choose a date and time that works best for the majority of your guests. Keep in mind the weather forecast and plan accordingly.
Make a guest list: Decide on the number of guests you would like to invite and create a guest list. Send out invitations or create an event on social media to let your guests know the details of the party.
Plan the menu: Decide on the menu for your party. You can serve traditional Halloween treats such as caramel apples, pumpkin cupcakes, and candy.
Decorations: Set the mood for your party by decorating your backyard with Halloween decorations such as jack-o-lanterns, cobwebs, and ghostly figures.
Costumes: Encourage your guests to dress up in costumes by having a costume contest, or by having a theme for the costumes.
Plan ahead for mosquitos and ticks: No one enjoys getting bit by mosquitos and ticks especially while enjoying a party. Mosquitos and ticks are still around in the Fall and can make the party less enjoyable. Lawn Buddies has mosquito & tick guard treatments that can help protect you and your guests from getting bit and being itchy. Schedule with Lawn Buddies at 732-475-5500 to spray your lawn up to the day before your barbeque.
Prepare your lawn: Parties usually have a lot of foot traffic and can stress out your lawn. Make sure your lawn maintenance is up to date and if you notice issues with your lawn a few days or weeks before your planned date contact Lawn Buddies!
Set up the seating and tables: Arrange tables and chairs in a comfortable and convenient location. You can also set up a table for drinks and a separate table for food.
Plan for entertainment: Plan for entertainment such as Halloween-themed games, music, and activities to keep your guests entertained. You can also set up a backyard movie theater and show your favorite Halloween movie!
Have fun! Relax and enjoy the company of your friends and family while enjoying the spooky atmosphere and delicious food and drinks.
By following these tips, you can plan the perfect backyard Halloween party that everyone will enjoy. Remember to be safe when handling tools, and always follow the instructions of the manufacturer. Have a spooky time!
