    I am having a smaller wedding with about 50 people and we are doing one long rectangular table. However, if I was having more guests I would definitely opt for the round tables.

    I wanted rounds tbh but rectangles fit the space better and i think will look less cluttered since the space isn't huge!

    I lovveeed the idea of having long rectangle tables; but it didn't work out in my venue. We'll have 10 round tables & 20 picnic tables

    I like both. Our venue offers round so that’s what we are going with.

    Round, I feel like the rectangular shaped tables don’t seem very conversation friendly.

    We are going with rounds due to the venue space, however I think both round and ractanlge are cool.

    I love round tables, but my venue has rectangles. Fine by me, they're still beautiful!

    I originally wanted round tables. But the room we wanted only has rectangle tables. But it will work regardless.

    I like rectangles because it looks more formal to me.

    I prefer round for our venue, but I really don't have a general preference.

    I prefer round tables just because long tables remind me of baby luaus here in Hawai’i because here we have a lot of family. But smaller tables look more neat and elegant.

    I like the look of rounds better, but I am coming around to rectangle

    My venue does round so I am happy

    Rounds, mainly because I like the sort of ballroom effect they give. I only like rectangle for serving food or displaying things

    Depending on the space, I feel like rectangular would feel more like a cafeteria setting than a wedding.

    I really wanted long rectangular tables. I don’t know why but I never even thought of round tables.

    My venue has both! We are having a rustic style wedding and there are rectangular farm tables that I will use for the head table and round tables for the rest of the guests. I personally love the farm tables.
