5 simple tips to throw a successful outdoor patio party

Tue, 28 Aug 2012 15:38:57 -0400

Summer is the best time to throw a patio party so that you can have a great time with your family, friends and neighbors. All that you need to host a successful patio party in the backyard or the porch is good food, refreshing drinks and entertainment. If you are planning to organize the first patio soiree of the season, these 5 guidelines would help you to make your patio get together a unique celebration for your near and dear ones.

Choose a theme: The most important step to planning a party is to pick an attractive theme; for example, picnic theme, beach theme, cocktail theme, black-tie dinner party, etc. Or organize a patio party to celebrate your wedding anniversary, birthday and even holidays.

Choose comfortable outdoor furniture and decors: Once you have decided the theme of the patio-party, the next step is to choose comfortable patio furniture along with picnic tables. You should also choose decors to match your chosen theme. Decorate your patio with colorful balloons, personalized banners with a personalized message to welcome the invitees. If you are throwing the party in the afternoon, you can install patio umbrellas as a stylish means to provide shade to the guests. If you are throwing the party in the evening, you can choose stylish patio lights to illuminate your patio thereby enhancing the ambiance of your porch or backyard. Paper or glass lanterns are another way to cast an amazing radiance to enhance the visual appeal of your patio. You can also beautify your patio with decorative aroma candles. Tealight candles are an excellent choice for patio parties. You may also place a canopy as a safety measure to protect your guests from rain or insects.

Plan the menu: The next important step is to plan the menu for the patio-party. You can choose simple yet delicious recipes to impress your guests. Welcome your guests with beer, wine and other refreshing drinks before serving food to them. Ensure that you preheat the oven so that you can start cooking the dishes and serve your guests on time. Also, arrange for snacks and desserts to perfect the menu.

Install a grill and arrange for a refrigerator: Give your patio a classy look by installing a grill and placing a refrigerator. The grill would be useful for cooking food and the refrigerator would help the guests to enjoy cool beverages of their choice.

Arrange for music and games: While planning a patio soiree, ensure that you place a good music system to add life to the party. Music in the background would help elevate the mood of your guests and make your party much more enjoyable. Alternatively, you may also invite musicians and artists to perform at the party. A patio party is not complete without games. You can plan interesting games for your guests such as card games, chess and checkers. For those who are fond of outdoor games, you can set up volleyball net and even play bocce ball, football or Frisbee.

These are the 5 magical steps to throw a successful patio get-together. Next time while hosting a patio party, follow these tips to make your get-together an exceptional experience for your guests.

Contemporary Designs in Outdoor Umbrellas

Fri, 11 May 2012 15:58:01 -0400

The outdoor living space has become an extension of our house. Homeowners are craving for additional ways to create an ideal open-air environment, as soon as the temperatures allow it. So while you are planning to put in a lot of time, money and effort for that perfect ‘outdoor living space’ you certainly want it to look good and fashionable. You can choose from the numerous umbrella options to get that extra visual detail! There are quite a number of outdoor umbrella designs available in the market that can convert your simple outdoor area into a stylish retreat.

Offset Umbrella or Cantilever:

The cantilever is a stylish and unique umbrella that has gained more and more market share in the past years. Its popularity has grown from a niche product to a widely acknowledged product. While offset umbrellas are known for their unique look, quality and the ability to withstand any weather have made them popular all around the globe. They provide a visually appealing aspect to your outdoor environment by blending with any kind of design scheme and adding style to the mix. Versatility is another amazing factor with cantilever outdoor umbrellas. Whether lounging by your favorite water, be it the beach, lakeside or the backyard pool cantilevered side post umbrellas can adjust their shading canopy according to your position. While not all cantilevers have the same functionalities, the high end models go as far as allowing a 360-rotation. Turn your side post umbrella in any desired direction to protect you and your family form the sun!

Done with the dining, where you have a pole right in the middle of the conversation. What’s more, you can enjoy a quick nap by positioning the cantilever near the relaxing chaise lounge. A cantilever umbrella would be appealing and efficient in any outdoor space.

The tricky part with this kind of umbrella is the canopy being held from one side, therefore the load falls on only one side. The base needs a good strong design to keep the umbrella erect under all weather conditions. This makes it usually a little more costly compared to a conventional market umbrella. Some cantilever umbrellas are designed to use a plastic base filled with gallons of water to give the base extra bottom heaviness. These kinds are difficult to move as they are heavy and water will need to be drained to be able to move the umbrella to a safe place. Other designs use a cross base that can be used with patio stones or to be screwed into a wooden deck.

Market Umbrellas:

A traditional central pole umbrella is called a market umbrella. These types of umbrellas were used mainly in the market places in the earlier times. However, nowadays market umbrellas are used in every possible location! Market umbrellas have different styles of canopies to them. A post with a canopy on top of it is the most common type of market umbrella. The size of the canopy can range from 6’ up to 11’ or more complete with unique custom bases or lever arms. These umbrellas are popular in pool side settings as they give a wide range of shade.

Market umbrellas in a café setting are usually made with a heavy metal base. This looks attractive and is less bulky than plastic water bases, providing ample space for sitting outdoors. All advanced umbrellas come with some type of venting system on the top allowing hot air and wind to escape. Market umbrellas usually cost in between $80-150, while the most basic cantilevers start around $150.
