1. Decorate for the Summer Season. Holidays such as 4th of July and Labor Day are great times to decorate.

2. Have a Themed Party. When it comes to hosting outdoor dinners and BBQs during the summer, it can all be quite normal. Consider shaking things up a bit by throwing a themed party such as a Great Gatsby party! The summer is a perfect time to throw this type of themed party. Guests can dress up, add vintage signs and decorations around the deck and consider offering champagne.
3. Dress Up Your Deck. One of the best ways to spruce up your deck for the summer is to get new furniture. Make sure your seats are comfy and consider chairs that also double as storage space to make the most of your space. Adding plants for the summer is also a great way to add a pop of color. Go bold with flowers that offers lots of colors such as sunflowers, fuschias, petunias, geraniums and more. Consider foliage plants as well to add shades of green. Finally, make sure you have lights. As the days get longer, you’ll be spending plenty of time outdoors and as the night approaches, you’ll likely want to stay outside. Outdoor lights such as string lights, post lights or wall lights are a great way to keep the party going even after the sun goes down.
