Understanding the space: Covered patio

If you are an experienced planner or a bride and groom planning from a distance, visualizing the space is often the hardest part. This blog entry was created for you.

First, I want to leave you with a clear picture of how Casalina looks on a regular dinner night.

Also this is our layout

Covered patio regular set up

This setup reflects our standard evening service, with tables arranged for comfort, flow, and ambiance. It is the base layout from which we build every event, allowing you to understand the natural spacing, lighting, and overall feel of the room before any customization is added.

Key points to visualize the space

• Regular dinner night setup is the base layout for all events

• Semi private option available on either the left or right side of the restaurant (semi-private meaning you will share the space with other customers)

• Covered patio capacity up to 150 guests: With fewer guests, unused tables remain to keep the space open and comfortable

• Outdoor patio can be rented for an extra fee

• Full patio (covered +outside patio) buyout allows a private entrance

• Without a full buyout of the patio, guests arrive through the main restaurant entrance

• Tables available for 6, 8, or 10 guests

• U shaped table available for up to 46 guests See example

• Extra tables can be set up such as: Sweetheart table, gift table, desserts table and more.

Now let's talk about decor

• Candles are welcome but:

Taper candles are only permitted when placed inside a vase or holder

Open flames are not allowed

Faux taper candles are strongly recommended

Candles only if inside glass cylinders

These guidelines are in place to prevent accidents and protect tablecloths

 • All décor items brought in must be organized by your team and:

Our team may assist with simple items such as napkins and charger plates

More elaborate décor setup will be subject to an additional fee

• Standard linens include beige tablecloths, as shown in the photos, paired with bistro style napkins featuring a blue line

•White tablecloths and white napkins are available at an additional cost

• Want to bring your own tables? Outside round tables are allowed: a $5,900 fee applies to move all our existing restaurant tables
