Guide for Choosing the Right Tables for Your Event
Depending on the type of event you are planning and the number of attendees, certain tables will be better suited for your affair than others. Pink Elephant provides a guide for choosing the right tables.
Round Guests Tables
Round guest tables are the most popular rental options, especially for stately occasions such as wedding receptions or elegant dinner parties. These tables allow a sizable number of guests to be seated together and motivate dialogue with one another. The most popular round table is 60”, and can comfortably seat eight adults.
Banquet Tables
Renting a banquet table is perfect for relaxed events like picnics, graduation parties, or large banquets. The most sought-after table size is 8 ft. and can accommodate seating for eight guests with ease.
Bistro Tables
The most fashionable bistro table is the 30” round that seats two, so it is a terrific fit for couples. These tables look appealingly quaint at intimate outdoor weddings, bridal showers, or cocktail parties. Selecting a 36” bistro table is suitable if you wish to seat three to four people at each table.
High Top Cocktail Tables
High-top tables are the same in style as bistro tables but raised in height. They are common furnishings in bars, lounges, and pubs. Bar stools pair nicely with informal adult beverages and/or finger foods. Utilized without stools, high-top tables are conducive for socialization while attendees congregate by the tables.
Head Tables
Newlyweds and their entire wedding party are typically seated at a large table that is situated front and center during the reception. The tables can be arranged next to each other in a line, overlooking the guests. Alternative table configurations encompass the U-Shape, V- Shape, or a generous square. Each 8 ft. table can normally seat four adults when simply seated along one side.
Sweetheart Tables
A sweetheart table is an intimate table for just the married couple at their wedding reception. The 36” bistro table and the 48” round table are both highly desirable rentals.
Classroom Tables
Classroom table rentals work well for events including corporate meetings, academic presentations, and seminars. This table allows all guests to be seated on the same side of the table, facing the person running the presentation. The 6’ x 18” classroom table can seat three, while the 8’ x 18” table can seat four.
