Planning Guide

Everything You Need To Know Before We Begin

Planning a beautiful event should feel exciting—not overwhelming.

Our Planning Guide walks you through the booking process, guest count recommendations, styling options, timelines, and everything you'll need to know before your event.

Whether it's your first grazing experience or your tenth celebration, we're here to make the process simple, seamless, and enjoyable.

Minimum Guest Count
Our experiences begin with a 30-guest minimum. Every display is thoughtfully customized and designed with intention, whether you're hosting an intimate corporate gathering, an open house, a client appreciation event, or a larger celebration. We believe every event deserves the same level of care, creativity, and beautiful presentation. 

Booking & Lead Time
To provide the highest level of design and service, we recommend booking your experience at least two weeks in advance. Larger events, custom décor, floral installations, and holiday celebrations may require additional planning time. If your event is approaching sooner, please reach out—we'll always do our best to accommodate your request based on availability. 

Delivery, Setup & Styling
Every experience includes professional delivery, on-site setup, and an event stylist who remains throughout your event to ensure your display stays beautifully presented. From arranging every detail before your guests arrive to replenishing the display and maintaining its appearance throughout the celebration, we take care of every detail so you can enjoy your event with confidence. 

Delivery and styling fees are quoted separately based on your event location, setup requirements, and overall design. 

Floral & Event Decorations
Floral arrangements and event décor are available as optional enhancements to elevate your display and complement your event's style. From elegant floral centerpieces to candles and seasonal accents, each design is thoughtfully curated to create a cohesive, beautifully styled presentation. Floral and décor pricing is quoted separately based on your vision and design selections. Unless otherwise requested and quoted, all floral arrangements, décor, and styling pieces are provided as rentals for use during your event and remain the property of Sweet & Savory Society or our design partners. 

Outdoor Events
We love creating beautiful outdoor experiences; however, because our displays feature fresh, perishable ingredients, outdoor events require additional planning and are subject to weather conditions. To protect food quality and presentation, Sweet & Savory Society reserves the right to recommend adjustments or relocate the display if weather conditions may impact the safety or integrity of the experience. Shaded or covered locations are strongly recommended for outdoor events. 

Reserve Your Experience
To reserve your event date, a signed agreement and initial retainer are required. Because each experience is thoughtfully customized, availability is limited and dates are secured on a first-come, first-served basis. Once your reservation is confirmed, we will work with you to finalize your menu, design details, and event timeline to create an experience tailored to your celebration.
