Now Is the Perfect Time to Ensure Your Outdoor Living Space Is Ready for Magical Summer Days and Nights

Early spring brings the promise of summer entertaining just around the corner. As the days grow longer and temperatures begin to rise, our thoughts turn to evenings spent outdoors. It might mean cleaning the patio and the furniture, getting the pool ready, and sprucing up the yard with annuals for seasonal color. But that’s not all you need to create the outdoor ambiance that you might truly call magical. Think about the entertainment, lighting, and simplified control you'll need to set that stage. And if you want that for summer, now is the time to start planning! Let's let our imaginations run free on this for a bit, and then we'll tell you how to make it a reality. 

Get Inspired

Imagine an ideal summer evening: Path lights guide guests through your garden while colored linear lighting casts a subtle color-changing glow around your pool. The crisp sound of your favorite playlist follows the conversation from hidden speakers tucked discreetly among the landscaping. As twilight approaches, you can catch a show with a favorite beverage on the outdoor TV by the fireplace, its brilliant display at the perfect brightness for the early evening light.

They say Rome wasn’t built in a day, and these premium elements won’t be installed in a day either. To achieve this level of sophisticated outdoor living, you’ll need some planning and preparation well before the first summer soirée.

Timing Matters

The best moments of summer seem effortless, but creating that perfect environment requires advanced planning. As homeowners begin to think about outdoor entertaining, installation schedules for premium systems like Coastal Source lighting and Sonance audio solutions quickly fill up. Getting ahead of the summer rush ensures your space will be ready for the first perfect evening of the season.

Spring inspections often reveal opportunities for meaningful upgrades. Perhaps your outdoor audio zones could benefit from the addition of Sonance Landscape Series speakers to fill coverage gaps, or your pathways could be transformed with new Coastal Source lighting. Early planning gives you time to thoughtfully consider how elements like WAC Aspire's color-capable lighting can add new dimensions to your existing space.
