Winter is renowned for being a party season. With so much joy and festivities, particularly around the holidays, it’s hard not to get into a celebratory mood. So it’s not surprising that so many people host parties in their homes during the winter. Many homeowners use the inside of their property as their party venue, but few actually consider using their garden. This is understandable because winter often gives us the coldest and wettest weather. But believe it or not, there are things you can do to make your garden the perfect venue for a party this winter. So instead of only entertaining in your garden during the summer, use these inspiring ideas to make your garden party ready in winter too.
Install a fire pit. Keeping your guests warm needs to be a top priority when hosting a winter garden party. Otherwise, they won’t feel comfortable or be able to enjoy themselves. It can also make them unwell. So you need to make sure your garden feels as cozy as it can, despite the cold weather. The best way to do this is by installing a fire pit in your garden. These devices can fill your garden with heat, which can make it feel more comfortable to be outside in the cold. Your guests will love sitting around your fire pit, which can create a fabulous social atmosphere for your party. To find fire pit ideas that are suitable for your existing garden design, look in garden magazines and blogs.
Buy a Gazebo. It’s no secret that weather can take a turn for the worst during the winter season. If you aren’t prepared, rain and snow can easily put an abrupt stop to your garden party. But thankfully, there is a solution. Gazebos are structures which can be used to provide shelter during your party. They come in an array of styles and sizes to suit any garden and can be erected quickly and easily. You can use it to shelter your party’s dining area where you can serve hot food and drink. It can also cover any seating or dancing areas you have created too. You can find gazebos online and from most garden centers.
Add beautiful lighting. Adding lighting to your garden before the party can help to set the mood and boost the warmth of your outdoor space. But it also has a very practical use in winter too. As the days tend to be shorter, we don’t have as much sunlight as we would in summer. This can mean it starts to get dark during the mid-afternoon. To ensure your guests stay safe and your party can continue, you need to have sufficient lighting installed. Shop around for fairy lights, stake lamps and candles you can use outside. Make sure these are positioned throughout your garden for maximum safety.
With these ideas to help you, there is no reason why you can’t throw an incredible party in your garden this winter. So whether you’re planning a birthday bash or Christmas party, don’t overlook your outdoor space. It could be the unique venue you’ve been looking for.
