Backyard Landscaping Suggesions

Hi All,

 

Planning to do backyard for my house and looking for some suggestions, The lot is an East facing one and we are planning to extend the Alfresco as shown in the poor rough sketch i have attached and also planning to include a fire pit with some seat there as well. 

 

I am planning to have veggie garden on the black mulched area and was thinking of hedging the lawn zone so the veggie garden is not evidently visible.Also planning to have fruit tress around the fence border. My plans were have a white picket fence and Bougainville around the fence with a central arbor and Wisteria plant on it with a small pond or some showpiece visible from Alfresco exactly behind the fire pot i have in the images. 

 

I am not sure of the fencing or hedging as is not a very big area and would i get the landscaping look i think of. I am a newbie and this is my first backyard makeover so looking for suggestions on how do i plan for veggie garden and make it have a designer look hopefully.

 

Also suggestions on if i need to consider when planting as my house is East Facing so how  about Sunlight in the garden would it be maximum on North West?

 

Pardon me on my poor drawing skills.
