There's no time like the summertime to throw a festive garden party, the most elegant type of summer party, followed by an old-fashioned picnic and Bohemian backyard BBQs. Invite your friends and family over for a modern take of the famous Royal garden party: A day of fun in the sun, petits fours and refreshing drinks that will likely turn into a night of dancing in the moonlight

The arrière-pays, or hinterland, is the area located behind any bustling area such as a city, town or port: It's where the landscape remains untouched, untamed and intact, save for those who come to wander amongst the wildflowers and fruits, such as the pears on these napkins. The sweet produce-inspired pattern will echo the backdrop of your garden party while preserving your immaculate linen tablecloth.Sferra, Festival Oblong Tablecloth - White

This soft white tablecloth by Sferra is a very durable option that will give your backyard dining setup a touch of boho-chic.
