Flowers, fruits, friends, oh my!

Welcome to the party theme of the month where, you guessed it, I recommend a party theme that you should give a try this month. May - the first taste of summer and the bookend of spring. For this month, I really wanted to capture that feeling; hence: May Day. May Day is a European festival of ancient origins marking the beginning of summer. It is a celebration of life and growth which, as someone who graduates college this May, feels very fitting. So, here are my tips on hosting the perfect May Day Party:

Let me set the tone...

Vibe/Decorations:
Flowers galore! Pick up some fresh bunches at your local florist (or Trader Joe's in a pinch). If you can, consider hosting a dinner party outside OR inside by some candlelight.
Food & Drink:
Here we're all about potlucks because if you're anything like me, you love to host but your wallet, not so much. So, tell your friends to bring a dish and a drink. Think charcuterie boards with seasonal fruit and veggies (strawberries, blueberries, citrus, carrots, cauliflower, cucumbers, etc.). If you're going full dinner party mode - a spring salad or sun-dried tomato pasta are great for big groups. For drinks, think pink wines or pale ales OR opt for the perfect spring cocktail and our cocktail of the month: The Clover Club!
Attire:
'Tis the season for spring dresses and linen tees! For this party, think cottagecore - if Frog & Toad would wear it, you're on the right track. Bonus points for flower crowns!

Activity No. 1

Make your own bouquet!

Take a trip to Trader Joe's and have each person pick out a small bunch of flowers (don't worry some are only $3.99). Make sure everyone chooses something different! At the party, you can lay them all out and have everyone make their custom bouquet (Pro tip: take some paper Trader Joe's bags to wrap them in).

Activity No. 2

Bring back the 2010 summer bucket lists!

With summer on the horizon, it's the perfect time to whip out the paper and markers and channel your inner middle-school self. Write down all the places you want to go, things you want to do, and people you want to see before the leaves turn brown again. Here's a good place to start:

Three new places to go (new restaurants, museums, parks, etc.)
One new hobby to try (from gardening to the banjo, just try something new!)
Two new friends (or reconnect with old ones!)
One new activity to get your body moving (hiking, yoga, stretching, etc.)
