summer garden party
BRIEF: An informal and joyous party at home for family and friends. Celebrating the very best of British Summer time in a relaxed setting.
The front door will be obscured by a collection of potted plants. Guests will follow the bunting through the front garden towards the pathway at the side of house.
The bunting in the side path is plentiful and bold. It will start high on both the wooden fence and the brisk side of the house and continue all the way along before exploding out into the main garden.
As you exit the walk way, the bunting will explode up creating a canopy and be gently wrapped over trees and bushes around the whole garden. In addition collections of various sized white paper lanterns will hang around trees and foliage. At the far end of the garden the raised platform will have been cleared to create a small stage area.
Since the party will be day time only, the use of colour and the white orbs will help bring the feeling of light and movement from the house to the garden
