The Be Blondes’ Guide to the Masters Weekend
It's one of our favorite weekends of the year—Masters Weekend! There's something truly special about the traditions of the Masters and Augusta National. Perhaps it's the exclusivity of the event that adds to its allure, but every year, we're hopeful for a ticket through the lottery! If you're like us this year and weren't able to snag a ticket, don't worry. We've got your ultimate guide to experiencing the Masters right from the comfort of your home!
Fairway Faire
No Masters-themed party is complete without the perfect food and drink selection! Start with the iconic pimento cheese sandwiches (recipe linked here) and the egg salad sandwich (recipe linked here). For a fun twist on the barbeque sandwiches, try serving a BBQ dip like this recipe! And of course, if you know the Masters, you know about the famous Azalea cocktail that patrons have been sipping on and spectating with for years. Pro tip: In recent years, fans have been able to purchase The Taste of the Masters box to enjoy the food right from the source!
The 19th Hole
To add to the allure of watching from home, set up the perfect tablescape! We love the idea of customizable foam cups with your family’s name. Pair them with green plates (linked here) and add a touch of fun with Masters-themed cocktail napkins. For an extra wow factor, consider using drink stirrers featuring symbols of the Masters! Decorate your table with yellow tulips and azaleas, a faux grass table runner, and a playful spray of golf balls and tees.
Augusta Attire
Who says you can’t dress to impress, even if you won’t be at the actual tournament? Good news is, we've got a style guide for what to wear the whole weekend! And for some added flair, why not consider buying a white caddy uniform like the one linked here? Bonus points for authenticity!
Here’s to daydreaming of green jackets for now! The Masters starts this Thursday, and we will definitely be tuning in!
