Why Great Events Fall Apart—and How FS Event Staffing Helps Prevent It

Crafted with care. Built to elevate.

Even the most beautifully planned event can fall apart if the staffing isn’t right.

You’ve selected the perfect venue. The lighting is just right. The food is next-level. But then… a server shows up late. A bartender seems untrained. A greeter isn’t paying attention. Suddenly, the guest experience starts slipping, and no one remembers the custom menu or the floral centerpiece—they remember the chaos.

That’s where FS Event Staffing comes in.
Founded by Francesca DeFranchis, a seasoned event professional with nearly two decades of experience, FS Event Staffing exists to protect your reputation and bring excellence to life through the one thing guests interact with most: your team.

The Stakes Are High—And Francesca Has Seen It All

Francesca isn’t just the founder—she’s done the work.
From kitchen prep to full-scale event management, she’s worked the front and back of house, and she knows what excellence looks like—and what it looks like when it’s missing.

“You’ve planned every detail. But if the staff shows up late, untrained, uninterested—that’s when things start to slip. And that’s when your brand takes the hit.”

Over the past 19 years, she’s learned that the guest experience lives and dies by the people representing it. A poorly trained team member doesn’t just cause minor friction—they quietly (or not-so-quietly) sabotage the entire event atmosphere.

Why FS Event Staffing Exists

Francesca started FS Event Staffing because she was tired of watching great events unravel for the wrong reasons. Her mission: to provide event planners, caterers, venues, and coordinators with reliable, highly trained staff who elevate—not just execute.

“We don’t just fill a shift,” she says.
“We bring the attitude, appearance, and skill to make you—and your brand—look flawless.”

At FS Event Staffing, that means sending experienced, English-speaking professionals who show up ready to work, blend into your team seamlessly, and understand what it takes to deliver excellence under pressure.

More Than a Warm Body

From bartenders and bar backs to greeters and servers, Francesca’s team is chosen for more than their resume. Every member of the FS Event Staffing crew is selected for their professionalism, communication, and ability to adapt to different types of events, venues, and expectations.

“My team shows up with pride and professionalism—every time.”

The difference is noticeable. Instead of distracted or disinterested staff, FS clients get team members who understand pacing, hospitality, and what it means to represent a brand well.

Crafted With Care

There’s a reason the FS Event Staffing motto is Crafted with Care. Built to Elevate.

Francesca says it best with a favorite Italian expression:

“Il piccolo barile… che vino buono!”
The little barrel… what good wine!

It’s a reminder that the best things aren’t mass-produced—they’re crafted with attention, pride, and care.

And that’s exactly how FS Event Staffing operates.

Whether you're managing a 10-person corporate cocktail hour or a 300-guest wedding, the same level of detail, consistency, and quality goes into staffing your event. FS Event Staffing isn’t about volume—it’s about excellence. Every time.
