If one chooses to hang lanterns that would like nice – so also, would some nice decorative garden lights which are mellow and of the appropriate brightness (not too bright) would set the right ambience and mood for an evening party in the lawns. If there are a lot of people it would be better to have more lights, whereas if there are fewer people it would make sense to keep the brightness factor a little on the lower side. It would also depend on the music being played around –softer, slower numbers would go well with more mellow lighting. Solar string lights would be appropriate for a pool cabana or also deck lights.
