Set-up is everything that turns an empty space into the place for the party: where the tables go, what is on them, how the room is lit, where arriving guests shelter if it rains. Some caterers offer it themselves, others work with trusted firms, and others handle only the food. In every case the result depends on how well the stylist and the caterer talk to each other.
The critical point is the division of tasks. Before signing, have it written down who brings what: tables and chairs, tablecloths, plates and glasses, buffet tables and counters, lights. If both bring it, you pay twice; if neither does, you find out on the day of the event.
Then put everyone on the same schedule. The stylist needs hours to set up, and the caterer needs to find the tables ready to lay. Agree the order of arrival at the venue, the unloading areas and the clear-down time, which is often the tightest part of the day.
Finally, check the points where the set-up touches the kitchen: candles near the buffet, flowers on the tables where food is plated, the height of centrepieces in relation to service, lighting cables in the waiters' paths. The guide on event set-up with the caterer goes into the details.
An example: in a villa in the Castelli Romani with drinks in the garden and dinner indoors, the stylist sets up the dining room first and then the garden, while the caterer prepares the back-up kitchen at the back. If it rains, the marquee must already be up and the buffet for the drinks must have a covered space planned. These are decisions to make together, in advance.
At weddings the styling follows the couple's taste and the venue: a villa on the Appia, a farmhouse in the Sabina or a terrace in the centre call for different choices. Read the guide to wedding styling in Rome and the page on wedding catering.
At corporate events, consistency with the brand, tight set-up times and controlled access are what count. If the event is large, see also the page on large event catering.
We don't give prices: every set-up is a project of its own. The quote depends on the quantity and type of materials, seasonal or imported flowers, hours of set-up and clear-down, transport, access to the venue, and how much is hired or bought. Ask for an itemised quote, with photos or sketches, and compare it with what the caterer already includes. For the other items that are added to the menu, read the guide to catering add-on services and to catering extra costs.
Once you have the venue and the date, you can request up to 3 quotes from caterers and also ask them which stylists they already know.
Some caterers offer set-up themselves or with trusted suppliers, others only the food. Ask straight away and have what is included written in the quote.
The stylist provides flowers, lighting, furniture or structures. The wedding planner or event planner coordinates all the suppliers and the programme. Sometimes the same firm does both.
When there is no covered space large enough for all the guests in case of rain, strong sun or cold. Consider it as a plan B and ask about set-up times and permits.
Compare the caterer's and the stylist's quotes item by item and have it written who brings what. The most frequent overlaps are table linen, tableware and counters.
It depends on the complexity and the season: for spring and autumn weddings and for large events, it is worth moving early. Simple set-ups need less notice.
