How To Get Your Outdoor Space Ready For A Summer Party

The lighter evenings and warmer temperatures are a sign that summer is on the way and that marks the start of outdoor parties.

Creating a memorable summer party requires more than just mastering the playlist and ensuring there’s enough food and drink to go around.

James Oliver’s newest collection of patio furniture is ideal for creating an oasis in your garden, whether you’re expecting a large number of guests or just a couple of friends.

We can help you ensure your outdoor space provides the perfect surroundings for hosting this summer.

Create the right ambience

The best outdoor parties run into the evening, and when the sun goes down, it’s important to create the perfect setting for after-dinner drinks.

A fire pit table will not only create the right ambience, but it will keep guests warm as temperatures can quickly plummet in the evenings.

There are few things more relaxing than chatting with friends over a glass of wine under the flickering, warm glow. If you’re feeling generous, you might even consider providing marshmallows for toasting.

Consider your guests’ comfort level

Your garden should be an extension of your home, providing the same level of comfort you’d expect indoors.

Therefore, adding relaxed seating with cosy blankets, soft cushions and an appropriate level of shade is key to happy guests.

James Oliver’s tables can be paired with a parasol that will ensure your guests remain cool and comfortable at all times.

Make a statement with tableware

Embrace the joy of al fresco dining with friends this summer.

Whether you are planning an intimate birthday BBQ or hosting an elaborate dinner party, it’s important you take care of the details like tableware.

Grand or simple, centrepieces can make a statement and uphold a theme. Flowers make an excellent centrepiece that can add a pop of colour to your table setting.
