This 4th of July I will be throwing a very non-red, white & blue rustic rehearsal day BBQ for my bride in upstate New York. However, if I were home to celebrate Independence day I would be doing so in a very non-traditional way. The 4th of July is definitely one of those holidays that can be tacky and overdone, but here are a few items to help create a classy, yet understated July 4th.

Blue & white stripped tablecloth via Style Me Pretty

Nautical napkin rings via Martha Stewart Living

Gold star paper straws via Etsy

Lemon tabletop decor via Marie Claire

Golden Stripe highball glasses via C. Wonder
