Throw a Lit "Yard-chella" Party at Home! #amazonfinds
Ready to bring the electrifying vibes of Coachella in Indio California right to your backyard? Hosting a "Yard-chella" party is the perfect way to celebrate summer with friends, music, and a festival atmosphere in the cozy comfort of your own backyard. Whether you’re a seasoned party planner or just looking for a fun way to hang out with friends, this guide will help you create the Coachella hippie vibe.
Create a Stunning Festival Setup
Transform your yard into a festival wonderland with some creative decor. Think colorful banners, unique seating areas, and tons and tons of fairy lights. Set up some campy tents adorned with vibrant tapestries and blankets where guests can relax and really get into the weekend festival vibe. A few well-placed solar lanterns or curtain lights can set the mood as the sun goes down. Consider setting up a stage backdrop or designated area for your music setup to mimic the festival experience.
Curate an Epic Playlist
Music is the heart and soul of any festival. Create a playlist that mixes current hits, classic anthems, and some indie gems. Consider asking your friends for song requests beforehand to ensure everyone hears something they love. If you want to take it up a notch, hire a local DJ or musician for a live performance. You can do a simpler setup with a Bluetooth speaker with built-in lights or a makeshift DJ setup.
Festival Fashion
Encourage your guests to embrace their inner festival-goer by dressing in boho-chic outfits. Think flower crowns, fringe, and plenty of accessories. You could even set up a DIY accessory station with face paint, temporary tattoos, and glitter to add some sparkle to the event.
Delicious Eats and Drinks
No festival is complete without delicious food and refreshing drinks. Set up food stations with easy-to-eat options like sliders, tacos, and fresh fruit. Don’t forget a hydration station with water and fun mocktails or cocktails. If you want to authenticate your festival, indulge in a cotton candy machine or popcorn maker for a nostalgic touch.
Fun Activities and Photo Ops
Keep the party lively with activities like lawn games, a photo booth, or a craft station. Giant Jenga, cornhole, or glow-in-the-dark frisbee can keep guests entertained for hours. A photo booth with props and a backdrop can capture all the fun memories. Consider adding a few instant cameras or a Polaroid station so guests can take home a tangible memory from the day.
