What are you forgetting?

A 6 ft gift table is 18 sq ft of table. It is not 18 sq ft of room: guests queue at it, set drinks on it, and stand in front of it reading cards. The same blind spot applies to people. Vendor meals are the single commonest line a caterer adds after the count is “final”.

This costs each thing in square feet, sums what the programme implies, and reports it in the only unit that matters in a tight room: covers.

The room

Without a measured room this can still name the forgotten floor, but it cannot convert it into covers. Measure one in Will my guests fit? and save it.

The evening

Not on the invitation list

Choose a saved room above. The forgotten floor is arithmetic against a format, and a format without a room cannot become covers.
