    60 inch round tables generally hold 8, so 10. 72 inch round hold 10, so 8.

    Chairs...80.

    You would need 80 chairs since there are 80 guests. As for tables, it depends on how many people you plan on sitting per table.

    Definitely at least 80 chairs, but for the tables it depends how many people you will have sit at each table.

    Your venue should be able to handle/help with this for you.

    You would need 160 chairs if your ceremony space doesn’t already provide chairs. Once set for ceremony seating and one set at the reception.

    For the ceremony i did maybe 20% more chairs than the guest count cause people don't want to be huddled together and it made it more roomy

    Hi Heidi! AshleyR and Melle have great points about thinking through your ceremony seating as well as your reception seating and making the necessary accommodations!

    For your reception you'll need at least 80 chairs (make sure you've included yourself and your fiancé(e) in your total count), and the number of tables will depend on the size and layout of your reception space!

    For Reference:

    72" Round Table: Seats 10-12 Adults

    60" Round Table: Seats 8-10 Adults

    48" Round Table: Seats 6-8 Adults
