High cocktail tables
How many you need, whether to use tablecloths and why these tables work for almost any occasion.
How can I use high cocktail tables for my party?
The days when these tables were used only for serving cocktails, or found in obscure jazz clubs, are long gone. They are so popular because you can use them for almost any occasion: receptions, weddings, formal and informal dinners and drinks. They can be used at almost any location, are easy to move, can be taken away when you do not need them and placed back when you do.
How many do I need?
That depends on how many guests you invite, how much space you have and whether you use other types of tables and chairs. If you do, I normally take an average of 4 or 5 per 50 guests. You can fit 4 to 5 guests around one table, and other guests can be seated elsewhere or prefer to walk around and mingle.
Do I use tablecloths?
In most cases, yes. A nice tablecloth gives more elegance to your party, in a modern or a more classical design. Put a flower arrangement on top, or a bow around it, and your lounge, terrace or garden immediately becomes festive. There are several designs in different colours.
Enjoy your party!
