It’s al fresco season, which means it’s time to take Father’s Day celebrations and those summer socials outside – hooray!
Here at RSG, we love entertaining during the summer months.
It feels informal and carefree, and there’s nothing like feeling the grass under your bare feet as you bite into a juicy morsel still sizzling from the BBQ.
Summer gatherings are all about creating magical moments, so whether it’s dinner a deux, you’re celebrating a fab dad or father figure in your life or putting on a picnic spread, everything you need for spectacular summer dining is here.
Let’s tuck in!
1. Portable Suitcase BBQ in Khaki Green or Burnt Orange, £40
A portable BBQ is a summer essential, we're sure fathers across the nation agree! This little beauty has a removable, refillable charcoal tray and separate grill, making it perfect for parks, beaches and camping trips. Plus it packs down into a neat little suitcase, and comes in fab colours (khaki or burnt orange). We love!
2. Beautiful Yellow Festoon Lights, £48
Bring a fun, festival vibe to your gathering with these beautiful lights. The flex matches the warm yellow of the bulbs (the colour of summer, after all) and they’re connectable – get good old dad to add as many sets as you like to create a magical setting for your soiree under the stars.
3. Recycled Vintage Design Outdoor Rug, available in Green, Pink and Orange, £35
These rugs are the perfect place to park your bot during summer festival downtime (if such a thing exists), or using as a picnic blanket on which to lay out delicious nibbles. We love the way it creates a fiesta forever kinda feeling wherever you go. Sing it, Lionel!
4. Black & Natural Stripe Outdoor Cushion, £25

8. Orange Bamboo Food Cover, £18
Nothing takes the shine off a delicious-looking summer buffet table or glorious foody get-together like a persistent wasp, but fear not - before Dad reaches for the rolled-up newspaper, we have the perfect solution.
