Rooftops deliver skyline magic—if you keep walkways clear and sound inward. This playbook maps counts, three micro-reception layouts, and a building-smart timeline. Gear references: A & B Party Rentals with cocktail rounds, slim buffets, fitted linens (wind-smart), lanterns, pipe-and-drape, and cord covers.

Quantities (Seat 50–60%)

  • Tables: Cocktail rounds + one slim buffet + one gifts/cake table.
  • Chairs: Perimeter clusters; +10% buffer.
  • Lighting: Battery lanterns/string lights; no cords across thresholds.
  • Backdrop: Pipe-and-drape for photos, weighted bases.

Layouts (20, 35, 50 Guests)

Layout B: 35 Guests

  • Three rounds; lounge corner; dual beverage points to cut lines.

Layout C: 50 Guests

Food & Bar

Serve small plates and enclosed dispensers. Keep bar away from threshold lines. A & B Party Rentals brings fitted cocktail linens, lantern kits, and drape that stay neat in trades.

Building Timeline

  1. 2–3 Weeks: Confirm elevator/load-in windows and rooftop rules.
  2. 1 Week: Reserve cocktail rounds, fitted linens, lanterns, pipe-and-drape.

  4. Day-Of: Backdrop first; seating clusters second; buffet last.
