Seriously. When we launched Backyard Bash Co., we expected to spend our time building games, creating social media posts, answering customer inquiries and figuring out marketing. Unfortunately, we learned this lesson the hard way. Early on, we got scammed out of $90 for what appeared to be a vendor market opportunity. It seemed legitimate. There were forms....]]></description><link>https://www.backyardbashco.store/post/the-scammers-the-vineyard-my-temporary-career-in-sales</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a26e7217af0f73356986a0a</guid><pubDate>Mon, 08 Jun 2026 19:33:48 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/ec0ea7_f2bfb93133f74b1fbf6a578b144a688c~mv2.jpeg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>backyardbashcoma</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Adults Need Yard Games Too]]></title><description><![CDATA[This week we realized something important while researching other rental companies; Most rental businesses focus almost entirely on kids. Inflatables. Bounce houses. Water slides. And listen, we love kids. We're teachers, we have five of our own kids between the two of us. Plus a grandkid.  We practically survive on chaos, coffee and fruit snacks. But yard games are usually treated like an afterthought. It's always: "Sure...throw in a cornhole for another $75." Because if someone's already...]]></description><link>https://www.backyardbashco.store/post/adults-need-yard-games-too</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a1da92a61de78e3b215363c</guid><pubDate>Mon, 01 Jun 2026 16:05:49 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/ec0ea7_0c56067e2af540d7a200f684a87175f3~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>backyardbashcoma</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Memorial Day Reality Check]]></title><description><![CDATA[Memorial Day weekend seemed like the perfect time to sit down and reflect on this wild little journey called Backyard Bash Co. And by "sit down,"  I mean answer customer inquiries from a soccer field in New Hampshire while eating snacks intended for children, in the pouring rain while checking Instagram notifications between games. Meanwhile, Maria has practically become a resident of New Jersey, spending 4 out of the last 7 days there.

Fun backyard games. Party rentals. Easy. To understand our Elegant Events Collection, you need to understand Maria's creative brain. She sees ordinary things and somehow turns them into something people stop and stare at. While helping one of her cousins plan a beautiful bridal shower and now preparing for her youngest daughter's upcoming wedding in the mountains of Maine, she became inspired by the idea that event games could actually...]]></description><link>https://www.backyardbashco.store/post/the-elegant-events-collection-how-one-wedding-changed-everything</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a0a6a128ba6aec9a80ec1a9</guid><pubDate>Mon, 18 May 2026 01:35:23 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/ec0ea7_9afa876ee3e54b8082ba0563c22faab1~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>backyardbashcoma</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Sometimes You Just Have to Say the Crazy Idea Out Loud]]></title><description><![CDATA[As I'm sitting here juggling my full-time teaching job, my coaching gig, my family's completely insane schedule, and the constant stress of hoping our business is actually successful; I found myself wanting to share some thoughts about how all of this started.
