Entertaining Tips

5 Pieces for Texas Outdoor Entertaining

Posted on June 12th, 2017 by Hannah.

San Antonio summers mean more time in the backyard, and there’s no better time to create your perfect open-air summer retreat for outdoor entertaining, romantic alfresco dining or just relaxing with the family, enjoying the beautiful Texas sunsets.

From small, cozy nooks to lavish spaces complete with outdoor kitchens – more and more people are beginning to transform their patios and outside spaces into comfortable living spaces. Below are a few tips to take your patio from plain to paramount, creating a space where your summer vacation never ends.

Bring the Inside Out

Since your patio is an extension of your indoor space, look for outdoor furniture that complements your overall inside design. If your home is contemporary, look for sleek, geometrical furniture design to add depth to your outdoor living space. For traditional or more formal homes, plush, oversize patio furniture elevates your outdoor elegance, creating your own outside, formal living room – with a view.

Fabulous Fabric

Thanks to weather-resistant outdoor fabrics, it’s easy to add splashes of color and patterns to your outdoor oasis that rival your indoor home spaces. Oversized patio cushions and pillows provide both style and comfort, and add a resort-style feel to your backyard.

Dining Tables Built for Outdoor Entertaining

Outdoor eating is becoming more and more popular, creating a centerpiece for entertaining and dinner parties. Depending on the size of your outdoor living area, a good rule of thumb is to have a patio dining set designed to seat between six or eight, allowing flexibility. For smaller areas, a round table works well and adds warmth, for larger areas, traditional rectangular tables create the perfect place to break bread. 

Outdoor Daybeds

Nothing says cabana and summer vacation more than an outdoor daybed. A dual-purpose piece of patio furniture, daybeds offer abundant seating space for your guests, as well as a solo, quiet retreat perfect for reading a book and breathing in the fresh air.

 

Patio Bar and Entertaining Carts

Nothing says outdoor entertainment like summer cocktails and cold drinks. Eliminate the need to go inside and away from your backyard party with patio bar carts. Functional and beautiful, outside bar carts provide the perfect space to serve cocktails, coffee and even appetizers, and are mobile, allowing you the flexibility to conveniently move the cart to you and your guests – not the other way around.
