Memorial Day Weekend is the perfect weekend to kickoff the summer by hosting the first warm weather party of the year. So if you’re gearing up to celebrate any of the red.white.blue summer holidays, here are the best cocktails to serve, food to grill, and decorations with links to buy for your event:
1. Start With Summer-Themed Invitations
2. Stick to a Red.White.Blue Color Scheme
3. Stick the Summer Classics for the Menu
Your Memorial Day party menu should feature all-American classics. Maximize your time outdoors by hosting a BBQ where you can cook everything on a grill. Stick to a simple menu of burgers, hot dogs, skewers, and grilled vegetables. If you’re planning a grill-free picnic instead, bring a few sandwich options with a pasta or potato salad, watermelon slices, and chopped vegetables with hummus.
