Croquet and Cocktails - Details, Details!

“At the end of the day people won't remember what you said or did, they will remember how you made them feel.” ~ Maya Angelou

When you pay attention to detail, the big picture will take care of itself. ~Georges St-Pierre

The comfort of your guests is of the utmost importance. If they're not comfortable, don't expect them to stay very long!

Given this is an summer outdoor event, you'll want to provide some shade. Set up chairs under shade trees or patio umbrellas. You can also provide fans, parasols and straw hats if other options are limited.

Be sure to have plenty of hydration options staged throughout the venue. If serving alcohol, have plenty of non-alcohol choices available too.

Have wipes, moist towels and plenty of napkins around for sticky fingers.
