Summer Solstice Party


Set the perfect table for a dreamy evening affair.


Take summer entertaining beyond the backyard barbecue with a dinner party on the longest day of the year. “I envision the decor being inspired by A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” says Susan Callender, owner of Boston Unique Events (Watertown 617-926-1900, bostonuniqueevents.com). “Use the colors of twilight, accented by pale china, sparkling glassware, silver or platinum accents, and plenty of candlelight.”
