Spring has sprung! Ideas for decorating outdoor events

Spring has sprung! As the flowers begin to bloom with beautiful buds, blushing brides bolt outside to host their birthday brunches, baby showers and bachelorette bashes! And what better time than now to enjoy time with friends and family in the great outdoors?

Many brides who host outdoor events don't quite know where to begin when decorating their space. That's okay! We hope these easy ideas help your brain start budding with ideas for your outdoor event this spring.

We love how this chandelier delicately lights the outdoor space. Not only does this look add a little romance, it makes for a great photo op too!

Paper lanterns are a colorfully classic look that will never go out of style. This bubble of fun adds the perfect pop to a spring event!




Draped fabric may seem simple, but has a dramatic effect! Very clean and chic!




If you have a themed event, don't be afraid to show it in your outdoor space! We're having fun just looking at this carnival wedding.



These look similar to paper lanterns, but you can make them yourself! Try bunching up tissue paper or coffee filters- voila!

Easy DIY Lit Monogram

If you come to my house, you will find the letter “B” everywhere! This do-it-yourself lit monogram from Polka Dot Bride caught my eye and looks very simple to make. This piece will stand out during an outdoor evening reception or backyard barbecue!



You will need a set of Christmas lights and a wire frame letter. This project used Swiss Miss 10″ Wire Frame Letters and Ikea’s Staala lights. You will also need some wire to attach the lights to the wire letter. Craft stores sell this type of wire in their jewelry department.

Start wrapping the lights around the wire letter. Every now and then, secure the lights with wire.

If you want to hang the letter, attach some pretty some ribbon to the top. Voila! Easy and exquisite.

Popcorn Buffet

I’m sure you’ve all seen TONS of sweet and yummy candy displays at various events. What about popcorn? Popcorn buffets are very easy and much less expensive than candy.

Details Party Rental
rents a popcorn machine for $50. We also have a variety of vases and containers you can use to display different varieties of popcorn.

We found easy recipes for caramel popcorn, cheesy-chili popcorn, butter pecan popcorn, and white chocolate popcorn.


You could also serve popcorn toppings with plain, buttered popcorn if you didn’t want to serve all different varieties. Nuts, raisins, salts, M&M’s go great with popcorn!


Don’t forget to label the different popcorns or toppings so guests can choose their favorites! The blue “Popcorn Topped with Love” labels were created by Jessica’s Design Shop and can be purchased from her website.

American Floral Endowment Dinner

We were so excited to be a part of the American Floral Endowment Dinner that took place recently. The new Agrilife Center on the Texas A&M Campus played host to the event and was a beautiful setting for the dinner.


The welcome sign even matched the decor! The new AgriLife center is available for any event, including weddings, and can seat up to 200 guests. Find more information here.


Gold chargers were the perfect accent atop the maroon and gold linens. The tablecloths are "Jacquard Gold Flower" and can be rented from Details Party Rental. We love this color scheme for Texas A&M events.


Thanks to the HORT class who provided all the beautiful centerpieces. They were stunning!

Upcoming Black and Yellow Event

We are preparing some ideas for an upcoming event at the Brazos County Expo Center and thought we would share our inspiration boards with you. The client will use cocktail tables throughout the venue and asked for black, yellow and grey centerpieces. Here are some of our ideas for simple centerpieces!.

We hope to have the black offset vases for rent soon at http://www.detailspartyrental.com! The yellow flowers are called “Billy Buttons” and are very easy to work with. The modern shape makes a statement for little cost. We even found someone on Etsy who makes them out of yarn! The black offset vases make the yellow gerbera daisy pop! Here is a tutorial for making Billy Buttons yourself. http://mrspriss.com/2010/05/30/diy-billy-buttons/

We also ran across a lot of other ideas while doing research for this event. These ideas would be great for a wedding or other themed event!
