At Marloe Interiors, we believe that outdoor dining should be a dreamy and enchanting experience. With the warmer months upon us, it’s time to start thinking about how you can transform your outdoor space into the perfect spot for al fresco dining. Whether you have a spacious backyard or a cosy balcony, we’ve got you covered with some tips for creating a dreamy outdoor dining space.

Creating a dreamy outdoor dining space starts with the right lighting. Hanging string lights and stylish rechargeable table lamps add a magical touch to your dining area. Not only do they create a cosy ambiance, but they also provide practical lighting when the sun goes down. And if you can, invest in dimmer switches or smart lighting that can be controlled remotely to create the perfect mood for your dinner party.

Comfort is key when it comes to outdoor dining. Invest in comfortable seating that encourages guests to sit and stay awhile. Whether it’s a dining table and chairs or a cosy lounge area, make sure your seating is durable and weather-resistant. Consider adding throw pillows and blankets to make the space even cosier.

Incorporating natural elements into your outdoor dining space can add a beautiful, organic touch. Fresh flowers, potted plants, and greenery can be used as centrepieces or accents on the table. You can also add natural elements like wood, stone, and woven textures to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

While dining outside in the sun can be lovely, it’s important to have some shade to protect yourself from the heat. Consider adding an umbrella, pergola or shade sail to your outdoor dining area. This will not only provide some much-needed shade, but it will also add a stylish touch to your space.

It’s the little details that can really make your outdoor dining space feel special. Add some colourful cushions to your chairs, a table runner or some decorative plates and glasses. These small touches will make your space feel more inviting and welcoming.
