Ready For Your Next Dinner Party?
As we enter March, the promise of spring and warmer weather is upon us. As the sun begins to show itself, many of us will take full-advantage to treat ourselves and those close to us with some fresh air and good food. Although our gazebos can be used all year round and are built to withstand all weathers, we know that spring is the time when outdoor living really starts to kick in.
Adding spotlights and a heater extends the useable life of your gazebo into the spring and autumn.
It may have been a while since you last hosted a dinner party, or it may even be your first go. To help get you started, we’re here to offer you our top tips to make sure all bases are covered.
Setting the scene
Creating an attractive centrepiece will enrich the ambiance of your dinner party. Why not grab some candlesticks and candles and line the middle of the table with them. You can also add a splash of colour to your gazebo with store-bought flowers or a handful of wildflowers from your garden. Why not match your centrepiece with the colour scheme of your gazebo? We offer a wide range of 32 different colours to help you truly personalise your space.
If you are hosting your get-together in the evening, you can make use of our spotlights and get creative by hanging string lights around the garden, tree or maybe even a path to your gazebo.

Seating
Your seating is already taken care of in our gazebos with our hand-crafted circular seating range which is perfect for friends and family to dine together.
Having an intimate get together? Then we recommend the Fawley gazebo. This little gem measures at 2.3 metres and is spacious enough for four people to dine, or eight people for drinks.
Planning a large get together? For a larger event, we recommend our spacious Burford gazebo which accommodates up to twelve people, making it perfect for entertaining friends and family! With two entrances, the Burford ensures that you and your guests can enjoy your dinner party to the fullest.

Soft furnishings
You can never have too many throw pillows! Why not have a look at our range of soft furnishings to get you started. Don’t forget: As the sun goes down, it’s helpful to have some throws on hand to keep guests cosy. We also recommend taking a look at our heating range and canvas panels for premium comfort.
Throws, cushions and canvas side panels mean your gazebo can be enjoyed in comfort well into the evening.
