Folding & Activity Tables — Expert Answer
What folding tables work best for a wedding reception?
For wedding receptions, round folding tables are the traditional choice for guest dining because they encourage conversation and fit more guests per table than rectangular configurations with the same square footage. Standard rounds come in 48" (seats 4–6), 60" (seats 6–8), and 72" (seats 8–10) diameters. For buffet service, rectangular 6-foot or 8-foot tables provide the linear surface area needed. Look for tables with a clean, professional appearance — wood-grain laminate tops or white tops photograph well and can be covered with linens. Commercial-grade tables with steel legs stand up to the heavy use of event settings. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960 for event table recommendations.
