    I gotta do rectangles Bc it makes more sense with the layout and table design, but I guess round is better for everyone being able to talk to one another

    Close call but the rectangle tables get the edge for me.

    Our venue has oval tables. If I had the choice I would chose round since I want the time to mingle with everyone.

    Round! That's all our venue has, but I prefer that! I would rather guests be able to talk than have a longer table.

    I’ll go with rounds because if you have an uneven amount at your table, someone wouldn’t be stuck on an end alone. Although I do like the long tables too.

    Rounds. But I can see how if you have a lot of people, rectangles might make more sense.

    I prefer long rectangle tables, so everyone can mingle together instead of in their small groups.

    Round. It’s easier to talk to everyone that way

    I think rectangular tables look gorgeous, but I feel as though guests can't interact quite as well as they can when they're seated at round tables. They'll be leaning forward or backward or swapping seats in order to talk to each other, otherwise they have a limited number of people they can interact with while seated.

    I love rectangles, but I will have rounds for guests. Our sweetheart table is rectangular.

    I like the round tables, I'm not a fan of the harsh lines/corners of square or rectangular tables
