Summer is finally here - and that means BBQs and pool parties; fireworks and red, white, and blue. If you’re not already packing your bags for your annual family beach vacation, here’s everything you’ll need to host an elevated & fun 4th of July party right in the comfort of your home!

MOOD

Remember field days at school? If the answer is yes, chances are you had bounce houses, capture-the-flag, and the smell of BBQing all-you-can-eat burgers and hot dogs - ahh.

The vibe is field day - patriotic edition - with a minimalist’s touch. We’re not trying to bombard our guests with an overdose of red, white, and blue, but light touches are going to go a long way here.
