Calling friends and gathering a party in the summer cottage is a great excuse to escape from the stuffy city and chat with those whom you have not seen for a long time. This idea has a lot of advantages: you will not interfere with neighbors, you will not be limited by the walls, because you can set tables outdoors, and, in addition, such a party involves informal communication, so you can get by with disposable dishes, and dishes on the table cook everything together - for hosts and guests.
It is necessary
food and drinks; - candles; - disposable tableware and tablecloths; - napkins; - liquid from mosquitoes
Instructions
Step 1
Call your friends and invite them to come. You will immediately find out how many people will be present and how many of them will stay for the night. If the party isn't about a family anniversary or birthday, talk to your friends about what you will be cooking. Make a product layout - who and what can bring with you. Agree on how much each participant needs to contribute in order to purchase drinks, meat and vegetables for the table.
Step 2
For those who have not yet been to your dacha, send an e-mail or SMS a description of the way. If buses or electric trains run to your dacha, indicate the timetable for their movement. Schedule your guests' arrival time.
Step 3
If it is decided to make the party themed, notify your guests in advance - let them think over their costumes and prepare concert numbers.
Step 4
As a hospitable host, take over the shopping for food and drinks. Also, stock up on candles and fireworks if you want to end the evening with a festive fireworks display. Buy disposable tablecloths, napkins, paper towels, and dishes. Purchase mosquito spray if found in your area.
Step 5
You will have to arrive at the dacha in advance to prepare for the arrival of guests. Prepare sleeping places for them and take care of bed linen and towels. Just in case, prepare home clothes for those who arrive smartly dressed.
Step 6
You will have to process some of the products and make semi-finished products out of them, so as not to waste a lot of time on cooking when guests begin to arrive. You don't have to arrange tables and chairs in advance - your friends will be happy to take part in this. In general, try not to stress too much, counting on the help of guests. It will be more pleasant for them if the hosts are not very tired and overwhelmed by the preparations for the party. Save your energy.
Step 7
Prepare outdoor contests and games that adults and children, if any, can take part in. Offer guests balls, badminton, bicycles - let them stretch out and work up an appetite. And do not forget to recharge your camera - you will have something to remember in winter.
