Default Table arrangements

Origionally we thought that we would have a small group (20-30 people) attending out wedding and thought it would be great to have everyone sit together at ONE large table. Since the size of the party has grown I am wondering if this is still possible. I don't think so! We are now expecting 30 adults and 9 kids. Does anyone have any creative ideas on how to keep the entire group together. I don't know why this is important to me but I just keep thinking it would be really cool to see everyone we love at one huge table enjoying dinner together! Any pictures you have of large tables would be awesome! Thanks girls!

I think long banquet tables or a three sided box (i.e. U shape) could definitely work - even with 40 guests.I would ask Emeline - I'm sure she's done set-ups with everyone at one long/U-shaped table before for banquets and conferences and other weddings.

I agree with Kashmira, I think a long take or U-shaped one would be great for a small group.

I like the idea of long tables. I think they feel more intimate.

You could also do a long table and some round ones.

I love that look.

I wonder how I would be able to set up the long tables for a larger group?
