Christmas in New Zealand means sunny days, garden gatherings, and the ideal excuse to take your holiday celebrations outdoors. To create the ultimate outdoor entertaining area this Christmas, focus on comfortable seating and a layout that invites friends and family to relax and stay awhile. Let’s make your space guest-ready for Christmas!
Arrange Inviting Outdoor Lounging Areas
Start by arranging your outdoor seating in a way that encourages mingling and relaxation. For larger gardens, an L- or U-shaped layout with one of our outdoor lounge sets creates a cosy, sociable setting. Smaller spaces can feel welcoming too — opt for modular pieces or single outdoor lounge chairs, which can be easily rearranged as guests arrive. Adding ottomans and side tables ensures everyone has a place to sit and unwind.
Choose Stylish, Weather-Ready Furniture
Outdoor furniture is exposed to sun, moisture, and more, so it’s worth investing in pieces made from weather-ready materials. Our outdoor dining and lounge chairs settings are crafted with New Zealand summers in mind. Arrange seating for shade or sunshine, and add umbrellas or shades as needed for guest comfort.
Add Festive Lighting and Decor
Create a warm, inviting atmosphere with outdoor lights and holiday accents. String lights, lanterns, or even candles provide that magical holiday glow, perfect for evening gatherings. Add seasonal greenery, wreaths, or a few outdoor-safe holiday cushions to bring a festive touch without going overboard.
With a few thoughtful touches, your garden will be guest-ready for Christmas gatherings. Explore our full outdoor furniture collection to find the perfect pieces for an unforgettable season!
