How many guests on each table?

Hey,

I thought table plan would be fun and easy but not!! I have 64 guests and am aiming for 8 to a table, I have the odd table with 9 and 7 just due to singletons ECt but I think 8 is good number, think 10 is a squeeze xxx

Venue have advised 8 - as above, 10 can be done but 'is a squeeze'

I wouldn't worry too much about spreading people out - it's only for the meal, so if they are separated from people they know, they will have the rest of the evening to be with them.

It depends on the size of the tables really. Assuming they're fairly normal sized round tables 8 is absolutely fine. Most weddings we've shot at tend to have 8-10 per table, but we've seen from 4 right through to 11 (11 was very tight!)

We are having 8 on most tables but there is one table with 7. I think anymore than 8 would be a squeeze

Thanks guys, that's really helped. 8 for a table works well when I have moved people around so i'm glad that will be fine on the day.

Our venue holds 50 and we have 4 tables of 8 and 3 tables of 6 ;-)

It really depends on your venue tables! We have both worked weddings, and the table sizes vary a lot. Our venue can offer tables of 6, 8, 10 or 12. But they only have so many of each. Which works for us, as we have some larger groups and some smaller. We're looking at having most of ours as 8-11 (we don't have a group bigger than 11) and just use the different taxable sizes as needed.
