Plan and create a guest list to host a successful Memorial Day party. Consider preparing traditional holiday foods, such as grilled burgers and hot dogs, and creating a patriotic ambiance with decorations and music.

What are good decorations for an outdoor Memorial Day BBQ?

As Memorial Day approaches, many people are planning outdoor barbecues to enjoy the warmer weather and the company of family and friends.

To make your BBQ festive while still honoring the holiday, it’s important to decorate appropriately. Flags and other patriotic decor are a great option, as they represent the American spirit and fallen soldiers.

Red, white, and blue streamers and balloons can add a festive touch to any outdoor area. Fresh flowers and greenery in red, white, and blue hues can also create a charming atmosphere.

Additionally, consider purchasing or making a memory board or sign to honor those who have died in service.

With these decorations, you can create a beautiful and meaningful atmosphere for your Memorial Day BBQ.

What are good drinks for a Memorial Day party?

A great option is to serve a large pitcher of homemade lemonade with fresh mint or strawberries for a patriotic touch.

If you’re feeling more adventurous, consider making a batch of red, white, and blue sangria with blueberries, strawberries, and white wine.

For those who prefer non-alcoholic beverages, ice-cold iced tea or raspberry lemonade is always a crowd-pleaser.

No matter what drinks you choose to serve, raise a toast to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
