That's an awesome topic.... then again, my first thought was of the Event Horizon. Good luck with it.

I think Im not going to use the chairs and use a bigger table instead.
On the table there will be candels, beer, plates and stuff.

well, let's see...

could be one of those tables with the umbrella coming up through the center.

maybe some beach objects around... beach ball, pale, shovel, towels, etc.

palm tree, perhaps, or at least the shadow of one across the deck...

lots of stuff. user added image

Keep it up!
