How many guests will fit at a 6 ft. rectangular table?

For 6 feet i'd say 3 on each side which will be 6.. 8 if you use the ends ..

My thoughts too....I just wasn't sure if I was underestimating their capacity, ha ha! Thank you

Your welcome you could also turn the tables to make them fit better like this

Those tables are 8ft thats why they have 4 on each side just to let you know.

Oh I wouldn't have thought of that! Thank you!!

3 on each side, one on each end. I personally love rectangles. A lot of my couples are using long tables (like four of those rectangles in a long line. If you have the space, it's really fun!

Well....I'm glad I went and measured the tables myself on my way home from work because they are 8 ft tables, LOL! The lady told me 6 ft but I figured I better double check.

YAY! Perfect Laura I am glad it worked out for you

Even with an 8-foot table, 3 on each side works better than 4 so they aren't bumping their knees on the table legs.

Hi! I wanted to comment on how organized you are. I LOVE how you have everything graphed like that. Is that an app you are using? I would love to try and lay out my wedding ideas as such. Where would I finf something like that?

I so agree! What did you use!!!

Wedding Wire has a seating chart option where you can set up your tables. That is what she used.

The picture that Almost Mrs. Smith posted is of WeddingWire's Seating Chart tool! You can access this tool by hovering over 'Planning Tools', then clicking on 'Seating Chart'. You will have to add your guests to your WW Guest List before you can play around with their seating!

At a 6 foot rectangular table, you can seat 6-8 guests: 3 on each side, and 1 person on each end. I'd recommend going with 6 people!

Hi Kim! We still have a seating chart but there's a new link! The seating chart is available under your planning tools and will be available once you've added guests to your guest list!

At work we typically seat two-three people on each side of our 6' rectangular tables, although you can also put two on the ends. It depends on the size of the chairs to an extent. For me, two people per side is certainly more comfortable, but I suppose three is practical.
