My Summer Garden Style Guide for the Heatwave

by in Culture & Lifestyle on 28th June, 2018

This year in an attempt to become a bit more in tune with my surroundings I tried to have iftar outside more this Ramadan and also celebrated Eid outside too.

With the weather taking a beautiful turn this weekend I think it’s only right to bring out the Barbeque and get out!

Here’s some Inspo for your Summer Garden party looks.

Lighting

Garden gatherings can last well into the night and it’s a shame to just rely on long summers lighting benefits, I would go as far as to say it’s an essential part of your party: to ensure you have the right lighting.

Seating

Whether its floor seating or bringing the indoor furniture out there are ways to spruce things up with cushions, fabrics and blankets to get some of the looks below.

Dining

If you are going for the casual vibe then the inspo above should help, if you are organising a sit-down meal then these dining solutions should be amazing to cover.
