How to host the perfect BBQ

Sep 20, 2024

We Brits love nothing more than showing off our gardens and making the most of any rays of sunshine we can during the warmer months. So, why not use our top tips to help you host the ultimate BBQ? 

Keep guests sitting pretty 

Set the mood 

You’ve created a comfortable space, filled with great cooking smells and plenty of food and drink, now you need to really set the mood with ambient lighting and some great background music. There are a number of great outdoor wireless speaker options you can choose from, including some Bluetooth models disguised to look like rocks. If your budget doesn’t stretch to premium surround sound, a crowd-pleasing playlist on any portable speaker will work perfectly – just keep the volume down whilst people are chatting until you are ready to turn up the party later on 

Meanwhile, festoons of lighting strung up and lanterns, wireless table lamps or stylish wall lights can all create a fantastic atmosphere around your seating area. Solar options work well if you get plenty of sun and aren’t near a mains outlet. Outdoor pendant lights and chandeliers are also really effective if you want to blend your indoor and outdoor spaces together.  

Don’t forget a couple of cheeky citronella candles to keep biting bugs at bay. In fact, planting scented varieties like lavender, rosemary, marigolds or catnip nearby also helps repel mosquitoes, keeping your barbecue free from uninvited winged guests.
