Creative Summer Party Themes to Try at Our Lakeside Venue
Planning a summer party at Venue on Lake Lily means you have a stunning location as your canvas. To elevate your event even further, choosing a memorable theme can add excitement and bring everything together—from décor and food to entertainment and attire. Here are some of our favorite summer party themes that pair perfectly with our venue’s lakeside charm.
1. Tropical Luau
Think tiki torches, pineapple centerpieces, hula dancers, and fruity cocktails. Our Lakeside Patio is perfect for a Hawaiian escape complete with leis, tropical flowers, and maybe even a roasted pig station. Don’t forget the steel drum band!
2. All-White Party
Elegant, modern, and effortlessly chic, an all-white party under our market lights creates a truly magical atmosphere. Encourage guests to wear all-white, and set up flowing drapery, soft lighting, and white florals for a cohesive look.
3. Sunset Soirée
Let the natural beauty of Lake Lily shine with a relaxed, romantic theme centered around the sunset. Schedule your event to coincide with golden hour, use soft, warm color palettes, and provide cozy lounge seating and acoustic music.
4. Summer Carnival
Perfect for families or community groups, a carnival theme brings out the kid in everyone. Think popcorn machines, cotton candy, lawn games, face painting, and maybe even a dunk tank or bounce house on the lawn.
5. Garden Tea Party
Take advantage of the lush landscaping by hosting a vintage-inspired garden tea. Serve finger sandwiches, scones, and iced tea in delicate cups. Set tables with floral linens and antique décor to complete the look.
6. Red, White, and Blue Bash
Perfect around the Fourth of July, this patriotic party theme comes alive with festive table settings, BBQ fare, and Americana décor. Add sparklers or a small fireworks show across the lake for a real wow moment.
7. Nautical Night
Inspired by coastal charm, a nautical theme brings in blues, whites, anchors, and rope details. Serve seafood-forward dishes, nautical cocktails, and include lanterns and driftwood in your décor.
8. Fiesta by the Lake
Colorful and full of flavor, a Mexican fiesta includes tacos, margaritas, papel picado banners, and mariachi music. A taco truck or make-your-own taco bar adds fun and flavor to this energetic theme.
