Shape and format of the tables.
First of all let’s look at the way the tables are going to be set out at your wedding reception. Now depending on what kind of vibe you are going for will determine what sort of lay out you are looking at. if you are gong for  formal sit down dinner, you will probably want to go for a more traditional round table that traditionally sits 8-10 guests. This will make it easier for the waiting staff to get round to each guest to serve the food. However if you are looking for a more relaxed reception where the food is served family style you may opt for long tables, this option works especially well in barn venues. If you are looking for something elegant and sophisticated then why not try square tables instead of round tables, this gives the guests more room per table and gives a more dramatic ‘look’ to the reception.
