The season of outdoor entertaining unofficially kicks off at the end of the month, and as Memorial Day celebrations and barbecues inch closer, it's the perfect time to take inventory of what you may need for a summer full of hosting and dining in your favorite alfresco spot.

While Target has a selection of over a thousand items ideal for entertaining, we’ve honed in on the retailer's exclusive collection from Joanna Gaines to find everything you need to make your duties a breeze. The Hearth and Hand with Magnolia line has an upscale picnic vibe featuring essentials like tumblers, serving trays, tablecloths, drink dispensers, and dinnerware starting at just $2.

Keep everything in one place with this woven compartment basket caddy, which has three smaller spaces that are perfect for utensils, and one larger slot for things like napkins, cups, or condiments. The caddy measures approximately 11 inches wide and 13 inches long, and weighs less than two pounds, making it a breeze to transport from your kitchen to the patio. One shopper wrote that it's the "perfect size" for their table, and added that the handle "feels sturdy."

There's something fun about arranging food and drinks on a platter, and this enamel-coated metal tray that reviewers call "great for entertaining" brings a touch of sophistication to your presentation. The oval shape measures 16 inches by 20 inches, giving enough space for a round of drinks, or a beautiful dessert display. The cream and gold color scheme is neutral enough to go with whatever theme you have planned for your next dinner party or barbecue.

Drinking dispensers can simply serve cold lemonade on a sunny day, or they can also add a stylish design element to your dining set-up. This two gallon, ribbed dispenser is made from lightweight plastic that one shopper said "looks like glass." The wooden lid isn't just beautiful, but has a silicone ring that keeps a tight seal, preventing any leaks. While the container itself is dishwasher-safe, the recommendation is to hand wash. One reviewer found the dispenser to be "excellent quality," and said it's "easy to fill, dispense, and clean."
