Home Entertaining Ideas to Impress Guests

Entertaining guests at home can be both exciting and stressful. If you’re a perfectionist, you will want to impress them and leave a lasting impression of your home and your hosting abilities.

To help, we’ve put together some ideas on ensuring your home is well-equipped to entertain guests all year-round.

Set the Perfect Ambience

The simplest way to create an unforgettable experience for your guests is to set the perfect ambience in your home. Lower the blinds to the ideal height and dim the lights to create the right mood for your dinner party. All of this is possible directly from your smartphone thanks to Connexoon Window RTS. Watch the video below to learn how to personalise your home automation solutions with Ambiances.

Make A Statement with Smart Lighting

Lighting plays an important role in your guests’ experience and with smart lighting, you can take your entertaining a step further and make a real statement.

Your Connexoon Window RTS can control your Philips HUE lights from your smartphone, so you can dim the lights or change the colour of the room in a single touch.

For your outdoor entertaining area, you can customise your automated lighting to your lifestyle and keep you entertaining guests long after the sun goes down. Set up RTS-enabled lighting around your pool, along pathways, in your garden or even on your pergola and set them on an automated schedule, leaving you free to mingle.
