Summer is all about spending time outdoors in the company of close family and friends. Let’s look at some tips and ideas on how to dress up a backyard barbecue party with both rustic and elegant flair.

Ensure Lots of Cozy Seating

Consider creating smaller pockets of more intimate seating to allow guests to relax and enjoy a cold drink away from the heat and smoke of the grill. Soft furnishings like cushions and lightweight throws help create a more comfortable atmosphere.

Create a Charming Tablescape

Even casual events such as a backyard barbecue benefit greatly from well-decorated tablescapes. Entice guests to the table with table runners made of greenery and other rustic elements. For eye-catching centerpieces, arrange seasonal blooms in clear jars or straw baskets.

Dazzle With a Drinks and Dessert Station

Make food and beverages part of your BBQ party décor by presenting them beautifully and in line with your theme. For example, fruit-infused water or colorful summertime tea in mason jars are refreshing drinks that draw the eye. Use a galvanized metal bucket filled with ice as a rustic beverage cooler to play up that summertime vibe.

Amp up the Ambience With Lighting

As the party will surely carry over into the evening, create a cozy and festive vibe with the right outdoor lighting. Fire pits provide a warm glow, as do backyard string lights on trees. Large lanterns filled with light strings or flameless candles are also versatile pieces you can use to illuminate your nighttime gathering.

Elevate the Atmosphere With Greenery

Summer is the best time to use nature as your very own decorations for a BBQ party. Accentuate any natural foliage you already have with lifelike greenery and artificial flowers in full bloom. Hanging baskets or potted arrangements add cheery pops of color throughout your backyard. Meanwhile, topiaries lining pathways and flanking patio doors give your garden a manicured look.

<h3>Natural Characteristics</h3>
Widely regarded as the best Christmas tree species in nature, the Abies fraseri is native to the forests of North Carolina and surrounding Appalachian states. Our BH Fraser Fir takes inspiration from this beautiful tree. Dark green needles with silver undersides, along with a more organically shaped treetop, accurately replicate the vibrant colour and natural silhouette of farm grown Fraser firs.

Balsam Hill™ is proud to unveil the latest in Christmas tree design: our state-of-the-art Flip Tree™ technology. This unique patented design is protected by two issued US Patents (#8,062,718 and #8,993,077) and is exclusive to Balsam Hill. With this innovation, we have eliminated the need to lift heavy sections of the artificial Christmas tree during assembly and storage. Homeowners can simply roll in the tree out of the box on its wheeled base, lock it securely into place, flip the bottom section up, and install the lightweight tree top. Flip Trees up to 7.5’ generally come in just two sections, so only the tree top needs to be lifted. Larger Flip Trees may have two top sections. In just a few easy steps, you can assemble a grand holiday display.Flip Tree Setup Video: Watch how easy it is to assemble your new Balsam Hill Flip Tree.

The innovative design of this Instant Evergreen Tree makes setup easy and fast. Featuring unique memory wire branches that automatically fan out into place as you set up your tree, our Instant Evergreen trees are ready in minutes. This tree also features our Easy Plug® technology, which means the light strings automatically connect through the trunk of the tree during setup - the only light string you need to touch for a beautifully lit tree is the one you plug into the wall. This truly instant tree will save you valuable time and effort compared to setting up and fluffing a traditional artificial tree.Setup Video for Instant Evergreen Trees: Watch how easy it is to set up your new Balsam Hill Instant Evergreen Tree.

Pre-fluffed

Shape the tree section by section, starting at the bottom. So, if your tree comes in 3 sections, shape the lowest section before putting the second section on top. You might also consider tying up the higher levels of branches in the sections to keep them out of your way. You can use the ribbon that came on your tree.Tip: Save that ribbon for wrapping up your tree after the season

Trees

The first time you assemble and shape your tree will require the most shaping to give the tree its full lush appearance. <a href="{0}" target="_self">Learn More</a>

Wreaths

Remove the top section of the tree before flipping the tree base. After placing each section of the tree in the provided storage bags, roll your Flip Tree into storage with the utmost ease.

Flip

The less you compress your tree at the end of the season, the less work you will have when setting up next year.
