1. Why Round Tables Are Better Than Square Ones
Much of the important socialising and activity in a happy home takes place
around the dining table.
Traditionally, it is a place of joy and celebration, with sitting down together
to ‘break bread’ being an important act that goes back as long as we can
remember.
Likewise, when we organise an event, whether it is a family do or a ball for thousands, we
want to create an atmosphere of true conviviality and enjoyment. It is therefore important to
get the type of table right.
Round tables have a number of key advantages when it comes to using them for an occasion.
Firstly, they allow everyone seated to face each other, equally.
Everyone is party of the circle of friends – there is no head of the table and no one is stuck
in a corner. It is a very friendly way to be seated and can be as formal or informal as you
please.
The lack of seating hierarchy is one of the significant symbolic factors in the legend of King
Arthur and the Round Table.
Another great aspect of having round tables at your event is that they are very attractive,
particularly when draped in fine linen. Their all-round symmetry makes them enjoyable to
decorate and every guest will be the same distance from your beautiful floral display, or
candle features.
Many people also find round tables simply more relaxing than square tables.
Corners and edges are more business-like and certainly have their place, but when we want
to unwind and play cards or games together after supper, a round table is preferable. It
promises fun and the easy flow of conversation, which is just what we want at that special
event.
So next time you wish to hire furniture for your event, make sure you look at round tables.
They are ideal for weddings, balls and awards ceremonies, as well as relaxed get-togethers
both indoors and outdoors.
Dress them up with some fine table linen and decorate it as you please – your guests are
bound to enjoy a comfortable evening where they can enjoy the bonhomie to its fullest.
