How to Make a Memorable Outdoor Movie Night

“The summer night is like a perfection of thought.” — Wallace Stevens

Summer evenings are the perfect temperature for enjoying the outdoors. Outdoor movies are trending this year and they are super simple to host! Here are some great tips on how to create your own outdoor movie night:

1. Create a DIY movie screen using a white sheet or tablecloth and attach it to a fence or wall. Make sure the surface is smooth so there aren't any wrinkles to distort the screen. Helpful tip: don't hang the screen too high, make sure it's at a comfortable viewing height.

2. Buy a movie projector from your local store or online. Check out Walmart, BestBuy, Amazon or Target for a large selection and select a projector that works for your budget.

3. Set up a snack station on a side table or lay out a blanket. Include your favorite snacks and candies. Don't forget the popcorn!

4. Get cozy! Set up your favorite chairs, spread out some blankets and throw pillows. Don't forget to add lighting. Try using citronella candles to keep the bugs at bay.

Whether it's an intimate date night or a neighborhood party, summer movie nights are sure to be hit!
