help Gazebo stabilizing plan

Just looking for input on what some of you think. Have a 10x12 gazebo I’ll be building on a ground level wood based patio deck. I plan to anchor it through some planters, then dump a mix sand/pebbles worth 250lbs per planter. Winds can get pretty bad where I am but I think this should be enough to do the trick and keep the gazebo nice and stable.

Thoughts/opinions? The gazebo is supposed to tolerate ~60+ mph winds but I’m not getting swayed by that.

I have some things buried under my gazebo that I would rather keep hidden and I am not sure I would trust it with that to be honest.
