At the risk of sounding like an ###, what you really need is to get out there. Everyone has a little different idea about what is important, so you can't know without trying it. Spending the night outdoors is a very simple thing, but our society likes to make everything complicated and dangerous. So think it through like this:
To spend the night outdoors you probably need a place to lay down. You probably need to lay on something to keep the fire ants off. You might want something comfortable to lay on. You might want shelter, but on the other hand you might want to look at the stars. You might want something to eat and drink....
After a few trips the list of things you need will be more obvious, and shopping for gear can be almost as much fun as camping.
