Easy Entertaining: A Dinner in the Garden for Summer’s Last Hurrah

Set the scene with comfy pillows, greenery, and glowing candlelight for when the sun goes down. Victoria de la Maza

Holding onto the last days of summer, even as I look forward to fall, I am planning a dinner in the garden under the stars. I love the idea of throwing one last outdoor bash as we step into cooler fall nights.

Using only candlelight to light our dinner is my ode to the end of summer. The garden takes on a magical feeling when the sun goes down, with shadows dancing and branches swaying in the breeze.
