Can you bring your own decorations to a private event at Casalina?

Yes. Guests hosting private events at Casalina in Delray Beach can bring their own decor, including welcome tables, party favors, gift stations, balloon backdrops and a dedicated DJ area. All decor brought into the venue must be set up and removed by your own team, and the events coordinator will help plan the layout in advance.

What is included with every event at Casalina?

Every event at Casalina includes white plates and bistro-style napkins with a classic blue line, standard beige tablecloths, and personalized printed menus tailored to your event. Complimentary valet parking is also available.

Are candles allowed at Casalina events?

Real candles are permitted only when fully contained inside glass cylinders or vases, and taper candles must be inside a protective holder. Open flames are not allowed. Faux taper candles are recommended for a stress-free glow.

How early can I arrive to decorate for my event?

You and your team are welcome to arrive 1 to 2 hours early to decorate. If you need additional setup time, let the events coordinator know in advance. The team can assist with simple items like folding napkins and placing charger plates; more elaborate decor setup is available for an additional fee.

How many centerpieces do I need for my event tables?

Casalina recommends planning one centerpiece for every four guests for balanced tables. Note that tables are square and standard tablecloths are beige; white tablecloths are available at an extra cost.
