Summer is right around the corner. With the weather heating up, we have all been longing for those lazy summer evenings, spending time with friends and family in the backyard, taking in the fresh air, and brainstorming vacation plans. Don’t worry, we’ve planned the perfect celebration to bring your loved ones together in a simple and elegant fashion to ease the transition between seasons. Two words: Summer Soirée.
Sun dresses, linen tablecloths, fresh-cut fruit, and of course Rosé. What’s not to love? Now you may be asking yourself “where should I even start?” Let us be your guide. Here are 4 tips for hosting the perfect Summer Soirée.
Decor
Let’s start with decor. Think modish, sophisticated, and neutral. Instead of purchasing disposable party supplies, invest in timeless decor such as linen tablecloths, white dish ware, neutral placemats, and gold silverware. These classic pieces can be used time and time again for all of your hosting endeavors. For a touch of color, add some beautiful pastel flowers (we suggest peonies, tulips, lavender, or hydrangeas).

Rosé Time!
It’s time to Rosé the day away. Summer has been hailed as the start of “rosé season” so get ready to whip out your favorite pink drink (sorry Starbucks) and celebrate! The crisp, light, fruity nature of rosé has caused it to gain popularity in the warm summer months. To WOW your guests, have our provençal-style Just Enough 2021 Rosé and Just Enough 2020 Rosé Bubbles on hand for delicious, and sustainable perfectly-portioned party wines!
Plan your Menu
What’s a soirée without delicious dishes to bring that sweet summer flavor to your tastebuds. Our 2021 Rosé with notes of bright guava, refreshing tangerines, and a smooth honey finish pairs perfectly with any dish. To start off, we recommend appetizers like artichoke spinach dip or a peach summer salad with burrata and balsamic glaze. As for entrees, get ready to fire up the grill! Summer calls for BBQ dishes like grilled veggie skewers and grilled pesto salmon. Finally, for dessert, satisfy your sweet tooth with white chocolate-covered strawberries paired alongside our 2020 Rosé Bubbles.
Music
Every good party needs a great playlist to set the mood. Something catchy, but won’t overpower the conversation. This summer, the sounds of the 70s are back. 70s-inspired music by Harry Styles, Lizzo, and The Killers are hitting the Top 100, reminding us of the good vibes that decade brought us. Want to give it a listen? We’ve curated a Spotify playlist of groovy tunes to keep you and your guests jivin’ here.
