SETUP & BREAKDOWN SERVICES
Design-Aware Execution for Tablescapes & Candlelight
Beautiful tablescapes don’t just happen — they’re executed with intention, timing, and care. AriLynn Events provides professional setup and breakdown services for candlelight-forward tablescapes, supporting both private clients and event professionals across Washington DC and the DMV.
Whether you’re hosting an intimate celebration or producing an event for your own clients, our team ensures every tabletop element is placed thoughtfully and every logistical detail is handled calmly.
A Natural Extension of Our Tablescape Work
Setup and breakdown at AriLynn Events is never just manual labor. It’s an extension of our approach to candlelight and tabletop design.
Because we curate and style tablescapes ourselves, we understand how light, spacing, and placement affect the overall experience. That perspective informs how we install, monitor, and strike every piece — ensuring the finished space looks exactly as intended.
For Hosts + Couples
If you’ve selected rentals from our collection and want your tablescape executed seamlessly, our setup and breakdown service allows you to arrive to a finished space and enjoy your event without managing logistics.
This service is ideal for:

- Private dinners and hosted gatherings

Our team handles candlelight placement, tabletop setup, and post-event breakdown with care — so you can focus on your guests, not the timeline.
For Event Professionals + Creative Partners
We also support planners, florists, venues, corporate teams, and rental partners who need design-aware event-day assistance.
