Another thing you might like to try is holding the party in a smaller space — it can often feel a little cozier than large open areas. So as opposed to opening your whole backyard for the barbecue, make it more intimate using lanterns or plants — it allows people to socialize in bigger groups as opposed to wondering off for a one-on-one.

If guests choose to bring something, liquor is always the best option. Nobody wants to be dealing with big bouquets of flowers while you're trying to pour drinks, so try to encourage guests to bring a bottle if  possible. Other than that, just enjoy the special time off with your family and friends while trying out some of our best recipe ideas.
