Layout Suggestions for 75 Guests

  • Indoor Venues: Use a mix of round and rectangular tables for flexibility
  • Outdoor Receptions: Long banquet-style rows create a cozy family feel
  • Dance Floor Space: Leave a 15x15 ft. area for dancing

Table Spacing Tips

  • 36–48” between tables for easy movement
  • 24” of space per guest at each table
  • Keep decor minimal on smaller tables to maximize space

Chair Count Reminder

If you're renting chairs too, you'll need at least 75 chairs, plus a few extras just in case (plan for about 80–85 chairs total). This includes chairs for ceremony seating if it’s in a different area.
