While weather conditions in recent weeks have been unsettled, the impending clocks change and Easter festivities mark the return of warmer weather, and of demand for banqueting furniture.
Easter alone sees a spike in demand for banqueting furniture as many villages host fetes and their own interpretations of Mad Hatter's Tea Parties.
From that point onwards, we're well and truly into the spring-summer season, and it's the perfect opportunity to plan street parties and other public celebrations.
Of course, the British weather is always relatively unpredictable, but the right choice of banqueting furniture can still allow your festivities to take place as planned.
Weatherproof outdoor furniture is capable of withstanding the elements, whether the sun beams down on your big day, or the heavens open.
And if it's a breezy day, good outdoor furniture is typically also stackable, allowing it to be quickly moved to indoor storage if the wind picks up.
The approaching British summertime might not deliver the blue skies and sunshine that we all remember - however accurately - from the school holidays of our childhoods.
But with the right party furniture, you can prepare for any eventuality, and make sure you don't miss out on any sunny days.
