 If you have the room, and the weather is okay, it's a nice idea to have
an outdoor party. If you're lucky enough to have a good size garden, then having a Marquee
can really set things off, guard against showers, and it doesn't have to be too expensive.
Quite often the local Scout Group will have one which they hire out to make a bit of extra
money. Our local group has a 20ft by 20ft one, and they come along and put it up and take
it down too.
 The other thing that can really add to the atmosphere if you have some
trees in the garden, are a couple of Halogen spotlights pointing up into the trees. You
can get them at around £20 each. Of course you need a reel outdoor extension cable too.
There is a great selection of contemporary lighting for gardens to be found
these days. This sort of thing interspersed with some insect repellant candles on stakes (available
from most good DIY stores these days), creates a really great atmosphere.
BUT if you want some great ideas take
a look at the
Later Life Party Guide. It's aimed at giving you ideas,
checklists and useful links for that special later life party.
