Wedding Reception Head Tables | 2017 Round Up
In similar fashion to 2016 weddings, half of my 2017 weddings featured a long head table where the couple would sit with their VIPs. Of course there is one photo I am unable to currently show you, but I hope you enjoy these other wedding head table photos!
If you are OK being squishy, you can put 4 people on each side of an 8′ table. (and 3 people on each side of a 6′ table.) If you want to spread out a little more, put 3 on each side of an 8′ table. If you have large charger plates and a full place setting, you should err on the less squishy options. If you plan to have a lot of decor down the center of your long head table, the ideal table width is 42 inches.
One of my favorite things to help couples with is designing a head table that stands out from the rest of the tablescapes. Be creative at every turn when you can!
If you need more info on head tables, in my 2016 wedding round up blog posts, I waxed poetic about wedding head table advice, you should check it out!
