Throw An All White Party With These Ideas For Food And Decorations

Labor Day is fast approaching and according to the socialites of the late 1800s this means it’s almost time to stow away our white until next summer. However, if you were born in this century, those rules don’t apply to you so you can feel free to throw an all white party whenever your heart desires. And to help you do so, we’ve created a list with a few ideas for throwing the classiest all-white party any time of the year.

DECOR

Obviously, when throwing an all-white party everything must be white. This means each and every decor piece, from the garlands, to the flowers, to the lighting, to the candle holders, and of course the balloons have to be white.

Simple white garlands are an easy way to decorate and work well on their own or layered to create a more dimensional look.
