Party Prep: Summer BBQ
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 вер 2024
- I managed to do quite a bit of filming before, during, & after our annual Memorial Day Weekend BBQ this past weekend. I've been wanting to post a more in-depth summer party prep video ever since I filmed that shorter one last September (link below). I especially enjoy hosting summer BBQs, because of the laid-back nature of these types of parties & that I get so much help with the food preparation. I hope you enjoy this video. I'd love to hear what you do to prep for your summer parties. Leave a comment below if you feel like sharing! Thanks for watching & subscribing :)

Loved this era. Im loving going back and watching these more domestic videos now that I can relate more than 10 years ago when I loved them as a teen 🥲
Me too!
Watching this version of Jen in 2024. Oh how things can change. Reminds you that nothing stays the same and that's okay. She rocks every era of her life because it's just that her life. Thanx for letting us on the journey with you
Watching Memorial Day weekend 2020 during covid19. These videos are still a joy to watch!!
Jen, you are so right about making lists. I just hosted a college graduation party for my son's girlfriend and the lists that I made helped me immensely. At a certain stage, my brain get's so cluttered and overwhelmed with everything that needs to be done. I find that having a checklist is a great way of clearing the mind and reducing the anxiety. Thank you so much for sharing. I thoroughly enjoyed your video and honestly, I didn't want it to end. You are a fabulous hostess! Take care. Aloha!
You're extremely organized and I really appreciate it. I tend to get a little overwhelmed when it comes down to family parties.
Jen I simply adore your videos. Because of you I have decluttered my home, reorganized my kitchen and simplified my wardrobe space. Watching your videos makes me smile, you are like a good friend with sage advice and a generous warm heart. I love getting glimpse of your life with Winnie and hubby, they are as adorable as you. A job extremely well done.
i loved this Jen, watched almost the whole 55 minutes hah! you are truly so wonderful and such a brilliant host i can't believe how much you did! i hope to be like you one day
Wow you and your husband are fantastic hosts!! Makes me wish I was on your guest list! :)
I love the chocolate chip cookies as parting gifts for the guest. Everything looked great!!
I love this.. its like watching a full hour show on tv but without the interruption of commercials. Must have taken you hours to upload. Thanks for keeping all in one video instead of separating it. Jen you are the best :)
The butterfly stuff was from Target last year...the napkins were from a local stationary shop
My gosh! You are like the most perfect hostess EVER! You think of everything - things that would NEVER cross my mind - like turning down the AC! Amazing! Love your videos!
I always enjoy your party prep videos. Getting everything organized in advanced always make things run more smoothly. I also love that you always have something special for your nieces & the guest dogs (hostess with the mostest!). The only thing I found missing was your OOTD & Winnie's party bows! You always dress so cute & we like to see you in "party attire" even when the party is more casual. Thanks for sharing your Memorial Day party prep with us!
I really enjoyed this video!
I love your long videos. I use them as motivation to get my housework done. It's my reward for getting my stuff done, then I get to sit back, relax, and watch your videos. :)
I need a smores basket! I wasn't aware of this particular void in my life until this video. thank you for opening my eyes!
Great video. Unfortunately weather here in Ireland is so unpredictable that BBQs are rare.
Delighted to see our Irish Kerrygold butter.
Long video love it! Thank you for sharing all your idees, your advise etc.
LOVED this video!!!! Thank you so much!!!! You did inspire!!!! ...and it seemed organized to me!!!! Thanks Jen!!!! Good job!!!!
I love how you broke down all the details of the preparation into manageable daily/weekly pieces, great example of, what is that expression, the best way to eat an elelphant is one piece at a time, lol :) I just bought my first house and am planning to host Christmas at our house this year for the first time, so I am sure I will be returning to this video over and over again for party planning ideas and inspiration. :)
Target! I got mine about a year ago but I'm pretty sure they still sell the owl line in the girls' bedding dept
Truly inspiring! Thx for sharing:)
To say I gleaned some inspiration is an understatement. Your videos are amazing. Thank you so very much for taking the time to share your process from start to finish.
Jen I love ur videos! U think of everything! Like the little single wet wipes! Love that idea! Keep it up : )
Yep!
What a wonderful video ! It's so usuable for ideas for my own summer entertaining ! Even though I dont think all so organized, we have you!!!! I've so enjoyed it Jen, Thanks
It is super easy!
Mostly from Pottery Barn & Target over the years...haven't bought anything new in ages
I absolutely love your party planning, you have given me so many ideas. You're great.
You're AMAZING!!! Your guest are very lucky to have such an amazing host!!!
Thanks Jen! Great tips too. I have a party comming up and this helps me sooooooo much!
Love your thought process while planning your parties! I unfortunately have a hubby and daughter whose idea of organizing is to stuff things in a drawer all willy nilly. They laugh at me and my lists but love it when they're looking for something and I can tell them without hesitation where it is!!! Love your videos!!!!
Your party looked great! I'm so glad that you are getting help with this party because you work really hard!
JEN Your party looked so beautiful,your so well organized and prepared ahead of time! I have a binder tabbed for each of the holidays and special occasions where I keep my planner for food,colour schemes,music,videos,decorations.I had fun making a cover page for each section and sitting down initially to plan,right down to the candy.lol. I love this to refer back to last year and like u said adjust a few things.The check list is in the binder and another things like a print out of the recipes.
Great video Jen! thank you for bringing us with you on your party and having the time to film on such a busy day. I love the way you think about things, love the food prep and all the important details that make your family feel comfortable. Glad your party was a big success - had no doubt about it -, I would have loved to be there and enjoy your company. I bet those smoked baby ribs were out of this world delicious, so hungry now :) xxx
You are quite an inspiration! Martha ain't got a darn thing on YOU my dear. Have a great week and thank you for sharing! LisaJ
Yay for long videos!!! I love them :-) Thank you so much for sharing this!
I enjoyed your video! I'm kind of a organization nut and throwing a party is the type of organizational challenge that I enjoy. Looks like you did an awesome job! Your guestroom video has inspired me to work on clearing out more space for my future guests. Thanks and keep the videos and great ideas coming!
Thank you so much for this video ,loved it I often have large BBQ but am no where near as organised ,you have given me loads of little tips fabulous xxxx
Love your videos Jen. I always come away motivated and inspired to do some organising around the home. Thanks so much for sharing with us. Looks like a fabulous party.
Great video Jen! Thanks for taking the time out of your super busy day to film. Your spreads always look so amazing!
I was suprised about the no flags and decorating too, but then she didn't show the front of her house, she may have old glory hanging proudly out front, like we do. I loved the video! She gave me a few ideas for my big 4th of July BBQ.
I smile every time you say "and that my friends..." hehe.. youve inspired me to be MUCH more organized with everything and im loving it... ty so much for taking the time to make these vids for us
I absolutely love how much effort you put into things, people must love coming round :)

That is an *official* certificate from the Fairy Godmother proclaiming me an official princess :p A gift from Don after my WDW Princess Half Marathon in February

Wow! You really think of everything. Great video.
I'm the same age as you and I can agree that she makes me want to be more organized
Loves this video! I was wondering if you would ever consider a mini series on baking tutorial. Your baking items always look yummy!
I made it about 6 years ago...

I am now looking forward to planning a great BBQ for this years Memorial Day and 4th of July. Any opportunity to be with family is always great! I hope I can work up enough energy to be as organized as you!!

Love this video, and will be using it for many of my future parties. your def a martha stewart for me =) please do make videos, when you have time, about your baking and cooking. the food looked yum!
I want to see how you organize and plan when you go camping!!!
Outstanding!
I adore your videos they are full of wonderful ideas, I think your fantastic x
Love your set-up!! Great job
Would love to see an updated filofax video. Love your tips and ideas. I need to be more like you lol
One word PERFECT! You are amazing
I do! :)
How did you learn your wonderful entertaining skills? Is this the way your families entertain? You are amazing! I love that the main dishes are the same each year and look sooo good! Can you do a Father's Day video? I'd love to get some ideas. Where do you get most of your plastic serving pieces? They are so cute for summer and I love the multi-colored glasses. Fantastic job! Priscilla : )
you really make me want to host a bbq again :) thanks Jenn for the inspiration!
Love this video jen please share your recipes on barbq and lemonade it looks delicious!
I love all your videos!!!
I know its not enviromental but I, too, love to use disposable plates and cutlery when I host big parties. Way less work to do when cleaning up. I find especially for summer BBQ's its ok cuz they are usually more casual events.
Jen you should consider getting your garage floor epoxy we just did ours and it makes cleaning a breeze!
I love planning parties, too! I really enjoyed this video. I'd like to second the request for your chocolate chip cookie recipe! And your margarita/ limeade recipe!
please do a bar tutorial. i love how you have your bar stocked fully!
WOOOOWWWW!!! U are a perfect hostess :) amazing job as always.
It would be fantastic if you could share the recipes for the cookies and the pies. They looked wonderful and I'd love to be able to make them myself! x
I watched the whole video :) and that looks like a great party!
We did the same thing and it's made all the difference.
love your videos :D I appreciate how detailed you are, it definitely helps. I am also a college student and would love some tips to get organized. Any of your videos definitely inspire me to do my best, plan ahead, keep organized, decor and so much more :)
yay long video! i love it!
Love your video glad to see someone else like me :) great details love it. Your house is beautiful.
You seem like a warm and good person :) Love the videos! :)
hehehe my name is in your background :P That's so cute that both you and Don are in your high school friends' wedding!! Great video Jen, very informative as always :)
Last year at Target
I'm so extremely hungry right now! Great video!
great video! could you (or have you done?) a video on how to store recipes/your recipe book or something like that?
You remind me of the Lea Michele of Organization. I love your decoration videos they give me a lot of inspiration.
