Table Design!

I agree the rectangle ones are nice looking but I'd go with round since it does make it better to socialize

We had one long table with 18 seats and people socialized just fine. It was intimate and perfect for the setting.

View Quoted Comment Oh my gosh how beautiful! That is good to hear, I am leaning towards the rectangular tables I think

Long tables are hard to talk at. You can only have a conversation with the people right next to you or talk over people to talk to someone else.

I'm biased toward round tables because they're aesthetically pleasing and more accessible to me!

I had rectangular tables and think they are actually easier for guests to talk with other guests. They can talk to each guest on either side as well as those across from them without too much distance between them; whereas, the diameter spanning most round tables usually makes it difficult for guests to talk across the table.

I think farm/rectangle tables give a family vibe too, people are able to socialize almost as easily as round!

Do what works better with your theme

Rectangular ones for sure .

View Quoted Comment Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I think they would be awesome with my overall theme

View Quoted Comment Wow that’s beautiful! Yes, I love what I will be able to do with rectangular tables as far as decor and candles!

View Quoted Comment Yes!! I feel you there, I love them because they are symmetrical and I like clean lines😂

View Quoted Comment That’s what I’m leaning towards! Thanks for the reassurance

We did round tables for several reasons: guest socialization, moving around tables, and costs. While looking into rentals, we found that rectangle tables cost more than round due to the fact that they're harder to store and deliver.

View Quoted Comment Oh yeah that makes sense! Our venue includes round tables and rectangular farm tables so cost is not an issue for us at least. But we will save on linen by just doing draping at not covering every inch of the tables

I’m also having a wedding of 75 and I will be doing a mix of round and rectangular.
