If you are depending on the hall provider to arrange all the decorations, then you might not have many options of table shapes to choose from. However, if you are doing the design by yourself, there are many options that you can choose from. You can go to round tables rentals or choose a classic square or rectangular table shape.
So, if you are looking to rent the perfect tables for your wedding, here are some options that you can choose from.
Round Tables
Although the round tables have been around for a while now, they are one of the best choices you have if you want to go for the classic vibe. This style is especially great as it lets the guests have conversations easily. Additionally, since round tables are easily available, you can get them in any size you want.
You can also match small round tables with larger ones to enhance the wedding venue’s look. This always gives a nice classic look. This makes varying sizes of tables available for the guests, and you would not have to divide the guests into small groups manually. Small tables can be especially annoying for larger families and friend groups.
But keep in mind that round tables take up more space than their counterparts as they do not fit perfectly in edged, square-ish rooms. So, if you are limited on venue space, you can take a look at the rest of the options mentioned below.
Rectangular Tables
If the space requires these types of tables, you can fearlessly go for them. Rectangular tables can accommodate lots of guests in a comparatively smaller area as compared to the round tables. But they can make communicating hard for the guests seated far away from each other. Since rectangular tables have edges, they can fit smaller spaces better, and look modern as well. You can also combine lots of rectangular tables to make just a few really long tables, which would look great as well.
Elegantly placing all the rectangular wedding tables in the center of the hall/space usually works like a charm. At this time, the extra-long tables might not be a good idea. That is because the guests will have to travel long distances in order to get to the other side.
Oval Tables
If you hate the round tables but still want to go the traditional way, you can try out the oval tables as well. These tables, just like round tables, allow the guests across the table to easily chat with each other without much difficulty.
However, good luck finding oval shaped tables in customized colors to meet the theme of your wedding. They are usually only available in black and white colors to choose from.
Square Tables
If you are thinking of having some modern vibes at your wedding, square tables are the most modern type of tables that you can get. In terms of ease of talk, they have both the goodness of round and square tables built in them. They can also accommodate a large quantity of guests in a comparatively smaller room space. However, if you want to go really extreme on the square shapes, you can always choose square plates and centerpieces as well.
However, one downside of renting these tables is that they can accommodate less people per table, so, you might have to pay more to rent the required quantity of square tables for the occasion. Look out for bumps as well, as every person on a square table is technically sitting in a corner.
