Take the party to the patio.

Labor Day is the perfect time of year to throw an outdoor party. The temperatures are warm enough to get into the pool, and at night, a warm fire is never too oppresive. We like to think of Labor Day as the 4th of July's slightly more temperant cousin, so if you're planning on hosting your Labor Day Celebration outdoors this year, we can help!

We've got everything you need to stay cool and have fun, and the best part of all–you've got plenty of options to choose from. Whether you need pool accessories for the kids or a dining set with an expandable table for unexpected guests, here’s how to guarantee your outdoor party is a hit:

Step 1: Check the Weather

September 22 marks the first day of fall, but that doesn’t guarantee cooler temperatures, so plan ahead. If your Labor Day celebration kicks off during the day, setting up an outdoor umbrella or a pergola can provide just the right amount of shade for your guests. Depending on how many people are attending your party, you may also want to spring for a cantilever umbrella.

Fire pits are also helpful outdoor accessories to have on hand, especially if your party is later in the day. A fire pit can offer plenty of mood lighting, and it’s the perfect place to chat and keep warm and roast s’mores with family and friends.

Step 2: Seating Arrangements

Expandable dining tables are a must-have when hosting large outdoor gatherings. They’re functional and flexible, depending on your guest list. Our expandable dining sets are easy to extend and close to reduce setup time. Plus, if you opt for stackable dining chairs, you can make the most of your space when entertaining smaller groups of people.

DID YOU KNOW:

Labor Day became a federal holiday in 1894 thanks to labor unions & activists who pushed for better treatment and more recognition for workers.

Step 3: Reusable Tableware

It’s easy to pick up a bundle of paper plates and cups at the grocery store, but if you’re in the habit of entertaining, our lineup of shatterproof glassware is a worthy investment that’s great for the environment. Our outdoor tableware will help you cut down on trash and make cleanup a breeze.

Cleaning Hack:  All you have to do is pop our dinnerware in the dishwasher.

Plus, we’ve got a range of styles and options. From our Americana plates to our margarita glasses, there’s a product for every occasion. Store them outdoors in one of our weatherproof bar carts or outdoor end table, and forget about cleaning up broken glass or overstuffing your garbage bin.

Step 4: Patio Entertainment

Mix up a fun cocktail in one of our drink dispensers, and invest in a few pool floats to keep your guests happy. Good conversation and tasty recipes are really all you need to have a good time, but a few outdoor accessories don’t hurt. We recommend investing in our EVO Bluetooth speaker for easy listening that comes with a built-in light. It can attach to your umbrella to provide a little dinner ambiance or sit poolside for those who prefer to float the day away.
