Susie Tyler-Alofs shows that love is not only in the air but can be right in your very own backyard.

Décor

Candles! Candles! Candles! They are simple, easy and scream romance. This celebration also included a houselike structure built with two-by-fours then layered with white tulle and twinkle lights. This became the stage for the romantic outdoor bed. An extravagant coordinating table-for-two was the vision of Avant-Garde. You can build a similar structure or simply move your mattress to the backyard. Add white bedding, a table set for two (a card table and tablecloth work beautifully) and your favorite dining room chairs. Elegant floral and an effortless dinner can be found at your local AJ’s Fine Foods.
