How to Host an Outdoor Party like an Instagram Goddess

Diana Kelter
Apr 10, 2015

Let’s all take a moment and collectively agree that the best parties are the ones that end up outside. We’re just going to cut to the chase and celebrate parties that are entirely outdoors. If you’ve never hosted an outdoor party, and you want to have one that will live up to your Pinterest dreams, keep reading. We’ve got all the tips and tricks to make it happen.

Gaby Dalkin, whose name you might recognize from her fabulous blog What’s Gaby Cooking, knows a thing or two about entertaining in style. As a former private chef for various celebrities in Los Angeles, Gaby transferred her expertise to a blog, where she shares approachable recipes fit for any occasion. If you’re not already hoping to run into her and become BFFs, we can tell you she is also the brain behind slutty brownies (basically the best usage of Oreos ever invented.) While we know Gaby would love to invite every single one of us to her house for an outdoor party for the ages, we have the next best thing. Gaby took some time to share her expert tips for outdoor entertaining with us. Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned pro, you’ll be inspired to start counting down for the moment summer nights are upon us.

Outdoor Entertaining Tips From Gaby Dalkin

1. Keep It Simple: We are all about easy peasy party ideas and hacks. If you don’t have a huge outdoor space (or any at all), go ahead and lay out a few blankets or even DIY your own fort. Gaby doesn’t have much outdoor space besides her rooftop, and she says all you need to do is “strategically place a few recipes around the space. It’s like one big picnic!”

2. Say Yes to Food Bars: Gaby is all about food bars, and one of her all time faves is a Bruschetta Bar. She says, “It’s a super fun way to keep the party interactive and allows your guests to design a meal for their tastes.” We agree — the more flavors the better! One way to take the spread to the next level is by DIYing a few wood-burnt cheese boards to house the eats.

3. Prep Ahead: Just do it. Prepping ahead of time is a necessary evil that makes entertaining *so* much easier. “It’s true for just about every party, but especially outdoor entertaining. When all of your guests are outside, you definitely don’t want to be stuck inside preparing everything,” says Gaby.

4. Food = Theme: Themed parties are the way to go every. single. time. To find inspiration, Gaby selects a few recipes and then lets it evolve from there. “When I start with pizza, it leads me to a sangria, a few refreshing appetizers and soon enough I have an entire event planned,” explains Gaby. Brit tip: Be sure to snap lots of food and decor pics to show off all of your hard work.

5. Stay Outside: Gaby says, “When I decide to host a party outdoors, I fully commit. I keep everything outside, including the bar.” And by keeping it all together like her, you can avoid a divided party (with more places to clean).

6. Focus on Finger Foods: She’s hit the nail on the head here. Finger foods are pretty much our favorite thing ever to munch on. “Who wants to stress about a massive cleanup after a great night? Finger foods are a great way to keep garbage to a minimum, and they keep the event casual and relaxing,” says Gaby.

7. Pizza ALWAYS Wins: “You can always count on pizza,” says Gaby. Whether you have your own outdoor pizza oven or are just using a grill, pizza is the perfect party food. And can you really ever go wrong with handheld cheesy goodness?

8. Make Cleanup Part of the Decor: It happens to the best of us. Your single party trash can fills up and garbage begins to spread like wildfire throughout your home. Gaby’s solution: “I set a bunch of cute wastebaskets all around my space so nothing ends up on the ground.”

9. To Co-Host or Not: “This is all about your personality… but partnering with a friend is also a great way to make the rounds more effectively to connect with all of your guests,” says Gaby. Just think, having an extra set of hands will also allow more time beforehand to DIY some fun table runners, garlands and other decor.

10. Excel at a Few Recipes For Any Occasion: Gaby says, “Regardless of where you live or what type of occasion you’re hosting, it’s a great idea to perfect a few recipes that fit just about any occasion.” Think crowd-pleasers that are easy to make but full of flavor — dips, finger foods, taco bars, you name it! Check out some of Gaby’s go-to recipes below.

Tomato Confit: This confit is super easy to prepare and will have guests wanting to spread it on everything. Serve it alongside pita, bread or a bruschetta bar.

Spring Pea Crostini: Eat delicious in-season peas with this yummy crostini. And that creamy burrata on top? YUM.

Nacho Bar: Gaby says, “This is ALWAYS a winner.” And we totally believe it. Whip up your own guac and salsa to make it the most epic nacho bar ever. You can cook ’em up over a grill or in an outdoor oven.

We’re still dreaming of attending one of Gaby’s fab parties, but in the meantime we’re going to take her tips to throw our very own party that we’re sorry/not sorry will take up all of your Instagram feeds. You can also continue to get inspired by Gaby’s Instagram account. It will keep your taste buds on high alert; don’t say we didn’t warn you.

OMG Paul Mescal Finally Addressed Those Beatles Biopic Rumors

Austin Butler as Elvis truly changed Hollywood, because now, not only are we getting Timothée Chalamet as Bob Dylan and Selena Gomez as Linda Rondstat, but Paul Mescal is also reportedly in talks to lead one of four upcoming biopics about The Beatles. Each movie, set to come from director Sam Mendes, will focus on a different member of the band — and their unique points of view — but will intersect to “tell the astonishing story of the greatest band in history,” per Variety.

Here's everything you need to know about the upcoming Beatles movies.

Is there a new Beatles movie coming out?

Michael Ochs Archives/Getty Images

Yes, director Sam Mendes is developing four movies about The Beatles — one for each member of the band. Each individual movie will tell a story from the perspective of one member (including Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, John Lennon, and George Harrison).

“I’m honored to be telling the story of the greatest rock band of all time, and excited to challenge the notion of what constitutes a trip to the movies,” Sam Mendes told Variety.

Where can I watch the new Beatles biopics?

Michael Ochs Archives/Getty Images

Each of the four movies will be released in theaters, thanks to Sony Pictures Entertainment. They're hoping to shoot all four in the UK starting in 2025 and release them in 2027.

“You have to match the boldness of the idea with a bold release strategy,” Sony Pictures chief Tom Rothman told The Hollywood Reporter. “There hasn’t been an enterprise like this before, and you can’t think about it in traditional releasing terms.”

Who will be playing The Beatles?

Arturo Holmes/Getty Images

According an article by The Hollywood Reporterpublished in May 2024, Paul Mescal was one of the studio's top picks for one of the Beatles, which I would totally be here for. To be honest, I need the rumored casting to be true just so I can hear him sing!

Speaking with GQ in October 2024, Mescal said: “I would love to be involved, but there’s nothing set in stone.”

He since hasn't confirmed (or denied) the rumors are true. During an interview with ETat theLos Angeles premiere of Gladiator II, Mescal said:

"It would be an incredible story to be attached to. The fact that Sam Mendes is attached to direct, it truly would be a dream come true."

Some other fan casts for he Beatles movies include Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Asa Butterfield, Barry Keoghan, and Tom Holland.

Don't Worry Gabriel Fans, Lucas Bravo Is Officially Returning For 'Emily in Paris' Season 5

Everybody raise your Kir Royale cocktails because Emily in Paris has been renewed for season 5! (And it looks like she might be trading some of her cocktails for espresso). The official Emily in Paris & Netflix Instagram accounts made the announcement on September 16 with a video of Lily Collins sipping some espresso on a rooftop.

"There's no place like Rome," Lily says with a wink. And, to be frank, we have to agree. I didn't think Emily in Parisseason 4 (or its fashion) could get any better after that Part 1 ending, but taking our favorite Parisians to Rome turned out to be a fantastic move — and not just because it introduced us to Marcello.

Keep reading for everything you need to know about Emily in Paris season 5 — including who is (and isn't) returning.

Is there a season 5 for Emily in Paris?

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Netflix US (@netflix)

Yes, Emily in Paris season 5 is coming to Netflix. "We’re thrilled with the incredible response to this season of Emily in Paris and excited to return for a fifth to continue Emily’s adventures in Rome and Paris!" creator Darren Star tells TUDUM.

The renewal comes as no surprise considering season 4 held Netflix Global Top 10's top spot and received almost 20 million views in four days.

When is Emily in Paris season 5 coming out?

Emily in Paris Season 5 Release Date

We don't have an official release date yet, but considering seasons 1 through 3 only had a year in between them, we could see Emily in Paris season 5 in 2025. (Season 4 suffered a delay due to the 2023 Hollywood strikes).

What is Emily in Paris season 5 about?

Giulia Parmigiani/Netflix

Emily in Paris Season 5 Plot

The Emily in Paris season 4 finale changed everything when Emily decided to stay in Rome and head up an Italian office for Agence Grateau. But, don't worry French fans. Darren Star promises we'll see her in the City of Love again, telling The Wrap, "definitely we’re not leaving Paris behind.”

And after Gabriel realized how much he wants to be with Emily in the season 4 finale, it looks like season 5 will feature even more of the show's signature relationship drama. "I think [Gabriel] realized that he wasn’t even aware of the fact that [Emily] left and how disconnected they’d become," Star continues. "He’s met the guy; he realizes the circumstances under which they met, and I think he just didn’t understand how fast things had moved between them."

But as much as we love to see Emily and Gabriel together, Lily Collins is excited to explore a Emily and Marcello. “Marcello is a whole other adventure that we want for Emily because we ultimately want Emily to be able to have a better work/life balance,” she tells TUDUM. “We want to have Emily be able to smile without condition. We want to see her beyond her vacay mode. And he comes at that perfect time.”

Who's in the cast of Emily in Paris season 5?

Emily in Paris Season 5 Cast

You can expect a lot of your favorites to return for Emily in Paris season 5, like Lily Collins, Eugenio Franceschini, Lucas Bravo, Lucien Laviscount, Ashley Park, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, Samuel Arnold, and Bruno Gouery. I hope we see Camille Razat too!

Here's A New Look At Florence Pugh's Return As Yelena Belova

Marvel movies are known for their heroes and their hopeful outlook on the world. But in 2025, we're getting a brand new team: the Thunderbolts. This team is made up of antiheroes and former villains, and it's sure to be the wackiest and strangest, as well as one of the most memorable, superhero movies we've seen in recent years.

Keep reading for the latest news on Thunderbolts* before it hits theaters in 2025.

Marvel Studios/YouTube

Thunderbolts* comes out this May, and the cast just showed off some brand new footage at the D23 convention — and thanks to the new 'Celebrating 85 Years' spot, we have the first look too!

We get a look at Bucky Barnes, The Red Guardian, John Walker, and Ghost. Plus, Yelena Belova, of course. This heartbreaking detail about Yelena's new look connects Florence Pugh's Yelena to Scarlett Johansson's Natashaand I'm WEEPING.

Marvel Studios/Walt Disney Studios

And at D23 Brazil, we got a brand new look at my new favorite team. "There’s something in this film, in terms of superpowers and superheroes, that shows that our superpowers lie in how ‘broken’ we are," David Harbour said at the event. "As if our superpowers came from our relationships.”

What is the plot of Thunderbolts?

Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images for Disney

Thunderbolts* Plot

Consider Thunderbolts* to be The Avengers' edgy younger sibling. The movie follows Yelena Belova (who we know off the bat is a "depressed assassin" thanks to a Marvel Studios press release). She's joined by Bucky Barnes, The Red Guardian, and John Walker. Based on a leak, it looks like we'll see this group of misfits team up against Valentina Allegra de Fontaine after she sends them on a deadly mission.

Thunderbolts* Release Date

Thunderbolts* Release Date

Thunderbolts* hits theaters May 2, 2025.

Who's on the Thunderbolts team?

Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images for Disney

Thunderbolts* Cast

Thunderbolts* stars Florence Pugh, Geraldine Viswanathan, Lewis Pullman, Hannah John-Kamen, Wyatt Russell, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Sebastian Stan, and David Harbour.

This is a huge cast, and Viswanathan just revealed how crazy the first day of filming was. “My first day didn’t feel real," she tells Vanity Fair. "I felt this extra pressure of, ‘Know your lines, babe. You can’t really play around like you usually do.’"

Historically, sci-fi fans haven't been kind to actresses in their favorite projects (remember when Star Wars fans bullied Kelly Marie Tran off social media?). But Viswanathan is already thinking ahead. “If it’s overwhelming, I’ll log off. But I like discourse around pop culture,” she says. “[Thunderbolts*] felt a little bit edgier and fresher, more existential and dark.”

Jesse Grant/Disney

The rest of the cast also enjoyed working together. “Everyone is going to f—kin’ love me! It’s really, really, really fun to be with a group of actors that you have a good time with," Wyatt Russell says at Comic Con (via Variety), while David Harbour adds, “Florence Pugh [is] just electric to work with. There’s warmth and humor, but there’s also a lot of pathos.”

“This is why we can't stop laughing together, because we genuinely just had such a wonderful time with each other and we've loved working with one another," Pugh tells People. “I feel like this is something that we've never seen before from Marvel...it's a very open and honest and truthful idea. And I'm just really excited for people to watch it.”

Are you excited for this brand new chapter in the MCU? I really feel like Thunderbolts* will usher in a whole new generation of fans and I, for one, CANNOT WAIT! Let us know your thoughts on Facebook.
