Begin with how guests will eat or gather

Build an event quoteA PRACTICAL START
Plan furniture around how guests will use the space.
Start with the guest list, then decide where guests will sit, stand, eat and move through the event. A clear mix of chairs, dining tables and bar furniture makes the layout feel easier to use.
COMMON STARTING POINTS
- Plan the meal or main seated component first.
- Keep a separate standing drinks zone if the event runs longer.
- Add lighting and a dance floor when the evening format needs it.
SIMPLE EVENT FLOW
Three useful planning steps.
Use furniture to create zones
Dining tables, chairs and a smaller drinks area help the event feel organised rather than crowded.
Add the finishing layer
Once the base furniture is right, lighting, heaters or a dance floor can shape the mood of the evening.
