The MidMods Guide to the Perfect Pool Party

A great pool party isn't about how many people show up. It's about the vibe. Here's how to create one worth talking about.

Float selection matters
Nothing sets the tone like what's in the water. A mix of MidMods floats — the Dune Chaise for solo loungers, the Pow Wow Pods for conversation clusters, the Executive Lounger for the person who brought the best playlist — creates an instant atmosphere. The pool becomes furniture.

The playlist
Mid-century modern music for a mid-century modern float. Start with Jobim bossa nova, move into Serge Gainsbourg, finish with something from the Blue Note catalog. Your guests will ask who did the music.

The drinks
The Executive Lounger & Bar has a floating bar for a reason. Keep it stocked. Aperol spritzes, a good rosé, sparkling water with citrus. Simple, elegant, effortless.

The lighting
String lights over the pool as the sun goes down. Candles on every surface. The right lighting turns a good party into a great memory.

The golden rule
A great pool party ends when everyone has stayed too long. That's the goal.

Live. Love. Lounge. #MidMods
