Summer is the perfect time to gather outdoors, enjoy balmy temperatures, and socialize with family and friends. While you don’t need a reason to congregate poolside or in a local park, it’s always a good idea to have a meal on hand to keep your guests happy and satisfied, and a BBQ party provides the perfect reason to get together. Maybe you love to play grill master, or perhaps you’d rather have your event catered so you’re free to mingle with guests. Either way, there’s still one thing missing: entertainment. Instead of shelling out for a local band or DJ, simply throw together your own playlist of the perfect summer party hits. What should you add to ensure dancing, sing-alongs, and plenty of fun?
