Three ways to set the tables

  • Rounds of eight: 11 round tables of 8. Fits a tent’s poles and a lawn’s uneven edges most easily. 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. A garden party look; needs a level lawn or a floor. 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 ten: nine round tables of 10. Fewer tables, a smaller tent. On 72-inch rounds, eight tables seat everyone (one table of 10 and seven tables of 9), plus a spare, leaving seven free seats across the room.

What a garden changes

  • Book the tent and its floor together. Grass that is fine for a ceremony is hard on heels and chair legs at dinner, and a floor keeps the dance floor level.
  • Have a rain plan with the same table count. If the tent is the rain plan, size it for dinner, not for the ceremony.
  • Light the path to the tables and the restrooms; a garden that is lovely at 5 pm is dark by 9.
  • A small garden dinner can sit at one or two long tables on the lawn without a tent, if the weather plan is a covered terrace or the house.

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 garden

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

About 1,300 to 1,450 square feet with a 15x15 dance floor, a DJ or band and one bar. Under a tent that is a 30x60 frame tent (1,800 square feet). The rental company will check it against the poles, the catering tent and the space for heaters or fans.

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 garden wedding?

Either. Rounds of eight (10 tables) are easiest under a tent, because they sit between the poles. Long tables (three rows of three eight-foot tables) suit an open garden party but need level ground or a floor. Ask the rental company which they can level on your lawn.
