With the beginning of Wimbledon what better excuse to hold an outdoor soiree to enjoy the game… or just the strawberries and cream!

Hosting a Wimbledon Garden Party with Handmade Linens & Retro Charm


At Alterme Home, we believe the most memorable gatherings are the simplest ones—thoughtfully layered, softly styled, and rooted in natural beauty. With Wimbledon upon us, there’s no better time to celebrate outdoors, mixing strawberries, sparkling drinks, and handmade textures in a setting that feels as relaxed as it does elevated.

Whether you're setting up by the screen or around a garden table, here’s how we’ve styled our timeless pieces for a match-day celebration that’s quietly beautiful.


Cushions courtside - our outdoor sage stripe cushions are the perfect timeless piece to style your Wimbledon Garden set up.

Neutral Linens, Naturally Elegant

Our tablecloths and runners in washed natural linen offer the perfect canvas—soft, breathable, and effortless. They let seasonal produce and handmade ceramics shine while creating calm amid the colour of summer tennis.

Pair with:

  • Layered cushions in Oat, Sand and Sage for relaxed seating

  • Simple posies of garden herbs, white blooms or elderflower in glass jars

  • Neutral or vintage crockery for a timeless feel


Courtside, Cushion-Ready

Yes—we took our set-up to the tennis court (and we highly recommend it).

Tucked beneath parasols or laid out on benches, our water-resistant outdoor cushions brought softness to a playful space, without compromising on style. The neutral tones grounded the setting, letting the energy of Wimbledon play on—just out of frame.

Style notes:

  • Layer our outdoor striped cushions directly on wooden benches or low walls for extra seating

  • Keep extra blankets or linen throws nearby for shade or cooler evenings

The perfect pairing; Pimms & Plump cushions

Classic with a Twist

A nod to tradition needn’t feel stuffy. Serve strawberries, yes—but pair them with oat shortbread and chilled elderflower fizz. You can even infuse cream with fresh mint for an unexpected detail.

Keep the playlist light, the dress code relaxed, and lean into small, joyful things.
