What exactly is MariLuca?

Think of MariLuca as the bridge between hosting and serving.

We provide behind-the-scenes hospitality support that helps hosts stay present with their guests while the details are quietly handled in the background.

Our role is to manage the small things that can quickly pull a host away from their event, allowing you to spend more time enjoying the people you invited.

What does MariLuca actually handle?

Support may include:

• Food station upkeep

• Dish and glassware management

• Trash and recycling management

• Kitchen organization

• Dessert placement and replenishment

• Leftover consolidation and storage

• Surface resets and light tidying

• Guest-space upkeep

• Event wind-down support

Every event is different, and support is tailored to the needs of the gathering.

What doesn't MariLuca do?

MariLuca is not a catering, cleaning, decorating, or event planning service.

We support the event you've already created by managing the hospitality details that keep it running smoothly.

Cooking, deep cleaning, large-scale decorating, and event design services are not included.

Do you wash dishes?

Yes.

We manage event-related dishes, glassware, and kitchen flow throughout the gathering. Deep cleaning and heavy scrubbing services are not included.

Do you decorate?

We're happy to assist with light staging and setup of décor you've already selected.

Event design, installation, and large-scale decorating services are not included.

Do you cook?

No.

All food should be prepared by the host, caterer, or other food service provider prior to arrival.

Do you serve alcohol?

We may pour host-provided beer, wine, and simple beverages as part of hospitality support.

Alcohol, mixers, ice, glassware, and specialty ingredients must be supplied by the host.

Do you provide bartenders?

MariLuca can recommend trusted bartending partners when dedicated bar service is needed.

Recommendations are based on the style, size, and needs of the event.

What types of events do you support?

MariLuca is designed for private gatherings, celebrations, showers, birthdays, cocktail-style events, holiday gatherings, family events, and similar social occasions.

If your goal is to enjoy your guests without being pulled into the behind-the-scenes details, MariLuca may be a good fit.

Where do you provide service?

MariLuca currently serves Palm Beach County and Broward County, with limited exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis.

Do you stay until the last guest leaves?

Not usually.

MariLuca is designed to support the busiest portion of your event and guide it into the beginning of the wind-down.

Our goal isn't to be the last person standing—it's to ensure the hardest part of hosting is already behind you before we leave.

Additional coverage may be arranged when needed.

What happens if my event changes?

Small changes are completely normal.

If your guest count, layout, timing, or event scope changes significantly, we'll review the details together and determine whether any adjustments to coverage or staffing are recommended.

How far in advance should I book?

Availability is intentionally limited, and early inquiries are encouraged.

While accommodations may occasionally be possible, advance booking is strongly recommended.

What is your cancellation policy?

Deposits are non-refundable.

Date transfers may be requested once and are subject to availability.

Additional details are outlined in the Service Agreement.

Can coverage be extended?

Additional coverage may be available based on availability and event needs.

Requests should be made in advance whenever possible and may be subject to additional fees.
