Event Planning & Styling, Right Here in Glens Falls
Glens Falls is home base for Stay Awhile Events & Hosting, which means Glens Falls hosts get the most flexibility we offer: the shortest setup windows, the easiest scheduling, and a team that already knows the venues, backyards, and go-to spots around town. If you're planning a gathering here, you're working with us at our most local and most available.
From a Friday night book club dinner to a full bridal shower, we bring the planning, the table styling, and the vintage-inspired dishware so your gathering feels intentional without you doing the behind-the-scenes work.
What hosting looks like with us
We handle the parts that turn a nice idea into an actual event:
Free consultation, to bring your vision to life
Full selection of our dish-ware, flatware, and table linens
A custom mood board, so you know what the table will look like before anything is finalized
Setup and pickup, so you're not hauling rental bins in and out of a lake house
Personalized invitations, sent out to your guest list
RSVP tracking, so you're not chasing down guest counts
Day of coordination, to ensure your party runs smoothly without any stress
Custom drink name tags and printed dinner menus are an optional add on
You bring the guest list and the occasion. We bring the tablescape and planning.
"The attention to detail is what stood out most, the entire evening was on theme, from the decor to the menu. The tablescape at Galentine's Day was so beautiful and fun. I love the way Maria takes a theme and just runs with it. Everything was perfect, and I didn't have to spend time thinking about the fine details myself."

Good Question
-
A backyard, dining room, or living room works great. Most of our Glens Falls gatherings happen in guests' own homes rather than rented venues, we bring the table styling to you.
-
For most gatherings, 3-4 weeks is plenty. During peak seasons (holidays, the Adirondack Balloon Festival weekend) we'd recommend booking a bit earlier to guarantee your date.
-
Yes. While most Glens Falls gatherings we style happen in homes, we can set up at a rented space too, just share the address and access details ahead of time so we can plan the layout.
-
Yes. Since we're local, weekday bookings, a Tuesday dinner party, a midweek shower, are just as easy to schedule as weekends.
-
Absolutely. Every gathering is different, so your collection can be customized with add ons and additional services to fit your vision, guest count, and needs
-
Let us know as soon as you can. Since we're based here, we can usually work with you on a new date without much lead time.
