Celebrating in Darien

Where Darien hosts use dinnerware

Lots vary from compact ranches to larger properties near the forest preserve, and tree cover is generous. That means shaded setups but also roots and uneven ground. We help you plan table and chair layouts that work with the lot, schedule delivery around weekend traffic on Cass Avenue and Route 83, and keep the order sized to your actual guest count.

  • Backyard open houses and cookouts

    Mid-sized lots fit 40 to 80 guests. Plan table placement around the grill, patio and trees.

    Dinnerware here: At home, rental china means no dishwashing: plates go back scraped but unwashed. Plan a spot for the return crates.

  • Darien Sportsplex and park events

    Team banquets and birthday parties use park spaces. Confirm rules with the Darien Park District and the facility.

    Dinnerware here: Parks rarely suit real china because of breakage and cleanup; consider rentals only for a seated dinner under a pavilion.

  • Forest preserve outings

    Waterfall Glen hosts picnics and gatherings. Check with the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County for permits.

How to plan

Getting dinnerware and plate rentals right

  1. 01

    List the courses

    Salad, entree, dessert and bread each need their own plate per guest.

  2. 02

    Add a charger

    Chargers sit under each place setting and set the color story; they are removed before the entree.

  3. 03

    Plan for buffets

    Buffets need about 1.5 dinner plates per guest because people go back for seconds.

  4. 04

    Coffee and dessert

    Add cups and saucers for about 60% of guests if coffee is served.
