It’s almost summer, and that means it’s almost time for the season of barbecues, pool parties, bonfires, and fun. If you’re planning to throw a party this summer, all you need to do is prepare a few key details and you’ll be all set to give your guests a great time.

1. Choose Your Theme

When the weather starts to heat up, it’s the best time of the year to plan a fun outdoor party. One of the best ways to get your guests exciting about an upcoming party is to center things around a theme. If you’re celebrating for the Fourth of July, you already have your theme ready to go, but other ideas like Kentucky Derby parties, lawn games, and garden parties are all light themes that help you in your planning for everything from invitations to libations.

If you’re looking for the subtle decorative accoutrements to accompany your theme, avoid Party City and hunt for vintage home and garden accessories from eBay. Whether you’re looking for a croquet set, chic votives, Derby fascinators, or an antique tea set, you can find tons of great deals on unique items using eBay coupons from Ebates, as well as thousands of free shipping offers.

2. Get Creative With Your Drinks

Speaking of libations, the key to any successful party is the food and drinks you serve. Get creative with your drinks and keep things in theme. While Cinco de Mayo may have already passed, a cantina-themed fiesta is going to be great all summer long, and a few margarita varieties are just the thing to get things started.

Want to host a wine-tasting and painting party? You might have to venture farther than your grocery store to find some interesting vintages. Get up to 7.5% Cash Back on wines that your guests will adore when you order from Wine Insiders through Ebates.

3. Get Your Guests Involved

Getting your guests involved in the party doesn’t necessitate months of planning, but a few simple options can keep the party flowing, fun, and lively. Whether it’s lawn games, projecting a classic film, setting up a build your own Bloody Mary bar, or something else, a few simple activities can be the difference between a good party and a great one.

Follow these simple tips and your guests will be talking about your party for months to come. As always, your party preparations are always more affordable when you shop with the discounts and Cash Back that Ebates offers!
