Hi Everyone! Sorry if this question has already been posted (there are too many posts to sift through with the title "Tables").
My Fiance and I are planning a wedding for 50, including the wedding party. Our outdoor venue has a fixed number (not sure how many) of large picnic-style tables, far too many tables for our small guest list! In addition, they already have long banquet tables for all the food. I'm going to have to either cover all the tables or create some rediculous dividing wall out of plants or something. -might be a good idea to help block out the playground in the distance.
Any ideas for what to do with those extra tables? We're on a tight budget and I need help!
So far I've got:
1. Gift/card table
2. Guestbook table
3. Coloring table for the kids
4. Not really into a Bride/Groom photo display
5. Favor table
6. Seating chart table (I feel like I'll need a seating chart to make sure everyone sits together. I don't want three people to each gigantic table. It will look like no one came to the reception! Plus, I'm worried no one will socialize.
If it helps, we're going for an antique, handmade, rustic look.
Thanks for you feedback!
