Safety First

 

You know the saying, “better safe than sorry.” Well, that applies to your party, too. You definitely need to be prepared for any accidents before you dive into the fun, pun definitely intended. The easiest way to do this is to hire a freelance lifeguard who’s solely responsible for the safety of swimmers throughout the event. You’ll be able to let loose but also know that everyone can swim without risks. This will boost your adult guests’ enjoyment knowing the kids are looked after at all times.

 

Prep the Pool

 

We know this step isn’t very fabulous, but it’s necessary to guarantee the party goes off without a hitch. Check all of the pH levels, TA levels and chlorine. These need to be in line before anyone can cannon ball or dive into your pool. It’s crucial and also easy to get done. Check this off your list well in advance and you’ll be right on track for an awesome party.

 

Serve Summer on a Plate

 

Grilling out is a natural match for a pool party. We suggest grilling the best seafood Northeast Florida has to offer -Mayport shrimp. These shrimp are big and fresh and the perfect dinner item for the summer. You can, of course, go classic summer cookout and grill up some hotdogs and burgers. Provide some sides such as fruit salad, garden salad or pasta salad to freshen up the meal. If you don’t want to cook everything and host the party, good news, you don’t have to! When you invite your guests, request they bring their favorite sides for a grill out.

 

Amazing Atmosphere

 

Brighten up your party with some string lights hung from one side of the pool to the other. Your guests will feel relaxed under the “stars” and the ambience will be in full effect. Play some of your favorite summer jams to really get the party started. You and your guests will be dancing the night away poolside enjoy each other’s company. Break out the games and get a good competition of cornhole started. You won’t regret it.

 

Summer means late nights and over-the-top fun parties. You’ll host the best party of the summer in no time with these awesome tips. You don’t need a real reason to celebrate life this summer, celebrate because it’s Tuesday! Kick off your shoes, lay back on your ledge lounger and enjoy the party going on around you.
