Three ways to set the tables

  • Rounds of eight: 11 round tables of 8. Small rounds are steadier on sand and easier to move if the wind turns. On 60-inch rounds, 10 tables seat everyone (three tables of 8 and seven tables of 7), plus a spare, leaving seven free seats across the room.
  • Long tables: three long rows of three eight-foot tables. One or more rows facing the water, best on a deck or boardwalk. Each row is 24 feet long and seats up to 26, split as one row of 25 and two rows of 24: nine eight-foot tables in all.
  • Rounds of six: 14 round tables of 6. For soft sand: the smallest rounds sink and wobble least. On 48-inch rounds, 13 tables seat everyone (eight tables of 6 and five tables of 5), plus a spare, leaving five free seats across the room.

What a beach changes

  • Ask for a dance floor laid on the sand, or a deck. Chairs sink and nobody dances on loose sand.
  • Check the tide times and the permit. Many public beaches limit how many guests a permit covers, and the high-tide line decides where the tables can go.
  • Weigh down centerpieces, place cards and the seating sign. A QR seat finder on guests’ phones does not blow away.
  • At this size a single long table at the water’s edge seats everyone, which is the photo most couples want.

75 guests is more than the free plan's 50 seats. The Seating plan seats up to 100, for a one-time $49. See 75 guests seated, no account needed. Compare plans.

Questions about seating 75 guests in a beach

How many tables do I need for 75 guests at a beach wedding?

11 round tables of 8, with the two of you at a sweetheart table. Long tables: three long rows of three eight-foot tables. That seats the other 73 guests comfortably, at about 24 inches of table edge each.

How much space do 75 wedding guests need in a beach?

About 1,400 to 1,550 square feet with a 15x15 dance floor and one bar, a little more than indoors because sand needs wider aisles. If the beach requires a tent, that is a 30x60 frame tent.

What size dance floor for 75 guests?

A 15x15-foot floor (225 square feet). That allows about 3 square feet a guest, since not everyone dances at once.

Round or long tables for a beach wedding?

Small rounds on sand, long tables on a deck. 10 rounds of eight stay steadier on sand than large rounds, and are quick to move if the wind changes. A row of long tables facing the water (three rows of three eight-foot tables) looks best but needs a level surface.
