Seating Arrangements For Your Next Event

Struggling to come up with your creative seating arrangement for your wedding or event? Deciding on what style of seating you want for your event can seem overwhelming at first, but once you get started, it can actually be fun and creative. To help you get started, we’ve come up with our favorite seating arrangements. Scroll down and view these 6 popular seating styles!

SINGLE LONG TABLES

Seating Arrangements For Your Next Event

If you are looking for something more romantic and classic, long tables are your best bet. Long tables were very popular years ago, and now they’re coming back! The long tables are great for smaller, more intimate events unless you’re going to have multiple long tables. This is also great for corporate events.

X-SHAPED TABLES

The X-shape seating arrangement is also one of our favorites because it allows you to see everyone at the table. If you are going to choose this style, we suggest doing so only if you have a small number of guests.

MIX-AND-MATCH TABLES

Nobody says you need to have the same tables throughout your wedding floor plan. Mixing round and long tables adds space to the room and make a beautiful visual from above. Don’t be afraid to get creative and most importantly, have fun with it!

S-SHAPED TABLES

This is our favorite seating style because it’s so elegant and classy. What makes this table style different from just having a long table, is the dramatic effect that the curves give off. This table style looks amazing indoors for a fancy event and outdoors for a rustic wedding.

RECTANGULAR TABLES

Seating Arrangements For Your Next Event

Rectangular tables are the 2nd most common seating arrangements for weddings and evenst. If you want a layout that is symmetrical and elegant, rectangular tables are perfect for you. Depending on the length of the table, you can git between four to ten guests at each table. These tables are great for both small and big events. 

CIRCULAR TABLES

Seating Arrangements For Your Next Event
The most popular seating arrangement is a circular-shaped table. When it comes to space, circular tables allow for about eight to twelve guests at each table, cutting down the number of tables needed for the reception. Having your guests seated at round tables allows for everyone to see one another and encourages enjoyable conversations. Keep it traditional and classy.
