Oops duplicates happen sometimes. I love the way you have it decorated for the party.

I don't think you need any help. Your party picture is great and shows you know what you are doing.

The phot from 2 yrs ago looks nice. all i see is that there has been some differed maintenance since then. the algae and weeds on the patio and back steps make it look a bit worn. the dead ground coverng also adds to this. one change id make in both photos is to get the grill away from the steps.

Thanks
That rug is gone so was looking for a new look to pull it together
The couches have been switched out too.
I have to see how to delete the duplicate posts

There are outdoor rugs that are not plush so they don't absorb water. The water goes right thru.
