– thus a cordial get-together under the open sky with people who are dear to us, complete with light snacks, warm words, an intimate atmosphere and properly chi- lled drinks, is something that we all need more than ever before. Here are the essential rules for an outdo- or gathering that guests will adore. Choose a location and theme First and foremost, for a good al fresco party you need a location that’s equally free and intimate. A lar- ger balcony, small yard, summer cottage on the out- skirts of town or someone's raft/barge – all of these are options that are in play. Once you confirm the lo- cation of your event, you will be able to harmonise the décor with the theme. Every al fresco party sho- uld have a surprise element – that could be a tropical dress code, like Hawaiian shirts for men and sarong skirts for women, or a motif that will connect diffe- rent guests – such as, for instance, a Mediterranean dinner in white for the crew that you met on last ye- ar’s summer holiday.
W e’re now entering the sumptuous fi- nale of the summer season – with plenty of time left until the start of autumn to consolidate the ma- terial of enjoyment, clarify the re- quired reading of hedonism and score points in good times. And to that end, immediately under the letter A comes the sweet ease of an open-air party, known as “Al fresco”. And even though it has been completely clear to us since childhood that everything is always more be- autiful in nature, we sometimes forget that as adults EVENINGS THAT YOU’LL NEVER FORGET Al fresco forever! Strategies for soirees under the starry sky that you can even organise if you live in a city
