Frequently Asked Questions

How many chairs per round table?

A 60-inch round table comfortably seats 8 guests. A 72-inch round seats 10. You can squeeze one more at each, but guests will feel cramped and there won't be enough elbow room for a plated dinner. For a buffet where guests won't have full place settings, you can add one extra chair per table.

Should I rent extra tables and chairs?

Yes, always order 5-10% more chairs than your guest count to account for last-minute additions and unexpected plus-ones. For tables, one or two extra is smart for gifts, cake, DJ equipment, and a food station.

What size table is best for weddings?

60-inch round tables are the most popular for weddings because they seat 8 comfortably and encourage conversation. For a more formal or modern look, 8ft rectangular tables create a dramatic banquet-style layout. Many events mix both styles.

How much space do I need per table?

Allow 10-12 feet of space for each 60-inch round table (table diameter plus chair space and walkways). For rectangular tables, add 3 feet on each side for chairs and 4 feet between tables for walking. A 120-guest event with round tables needs roughly 2,000-2,500 square feet of dining space.
