Are you getting ready for the fall? There are a lot of different ways you can celebrate the cooler weather and the turning of the leaves. Of course, there’s Halloween and Thanksgiving, but there are other fall celebrations, too. If you’re planning some kind party in the next few months, here are a few things to keep in mind as you’re preparing for it. Decorations might not be an issue if your party is right before Halloween or Thanksgiving. If you’ve already decorated for those holidays, don’t stress too much about redoing decorations for your party. Chances are, your friends will love the decorations you already have up, and they won’t fault you for not completely redecorating your home for a night and then redoing it again the next day. If you do want to change up your décor, go with some of the natural fall colors, like red, gold, orange, and brown. You can create centerpieces or other decorations using leaves, pumpkins, gourds, and other items found outdoors.

If you’ve got a fire pit or an outdoor patio heater, you can certainly enjoy the crisp air while still keeping toasty. Because the weather can turn cold pretty quickly in some areas, be sure to have an indoor backup plan just in case you can’t go out. Also, be sure you tell your guests that all or part of the party will be outside so they can dress appropriately. While your summer party menu focused on cool and crisp foods, your fall dinners should be hot comfort food. Soup is a great first course instead of salad. If you want an easy meal, go with a hot stew. You could even have each guest bring a different stew or soup so everyone can try something new. Your fall party is sure to be a success!

Hello Doug: This is a quick note to say “thank you” for the beautiful flower arrangements you prepared for my parents’ party on August 10. I was blown away when I saw the arrangements as I entered the Corinthian Ballroom on Saturday afternoon. They were even more beautiful than I had expected. I appreciate your hard work and your efforts to create stunning arrangements that incorporated the colors I wanted. My parents loved every aspect of the party, and several guests commented on the beauty of the flower arrangements. (I gave you full credit, of course!) Thank you again,...
