Wedding Cocktail Table
It’s all about the cocktails……tables, that is!
Whether your wedding is indoors or outdoors, one thing is certain – a party isn’t a party without cocktail tables! No matter what style of wedding you’re planning, your cocktail tables can play a key role in your wedding planning decor. Get inspired with this guide to cocktail tables and how to use them on your big day.
From sashed to wrapped to floor-length style, there are a million ways to dress up your cocktail tables from ceremony to reception. Most of us in the wedding industry LOVE getting creative with our clients, so think outside the box when planning, and don’t be afraid to mix it up!
What are cocktail tables & how are they used?
Cocktail tables are used in addition to your guest tables for cocktail hour, to add some extra décor pizzazz, and sometimes even extra seating. These tables are typically called “high-top” tables as they are commonly set at 42” height which is perfect for standing guests to lean on, set their drinks on or even nibble at.
Some rental companies will have a mixture of high and low tables, so you can choose to pair chairs with shorter ones for added seating. Cocktail tables are available in round and sometimes square tops.
Ceremony
Creativity at the altar
Cocktail tables are the perfect height for your ceremony! They are commonly used for sand or unity candle ceremonies. You can choose classic linen colors such as white or ivory or you may add a pop of color! They can also be used as “stands” for your altar arrangements. Last, but not least, they are perfect for your guest book, since they are small and tall.
Cocktail Hour
Stylistic contrast as guests mingle
Most couples will use these tables during cocktail hour for a different look prior to the reception seating, but also for their guests to have a place to mingle with other guests while enjoying a welcome drink and hors d’oeuvres. Again, you may wish to consider mixing the high and low cocktail tables here to give some of your elderly guests a place to sit during this time. They will appreciate it so much!
Reception
Flexible seating so anything goes
Cocktail tables can be mixed in with your guest seating as they can seat 2-4 guests and can be paired with barstool chairs for the taller tables or set low with standard chairs as well. This look breaks the standards of cookie-cutter seating for sure but is a fun way to add some dimension to your reception room!
Your dance floor area most definitely needs cocktail tables nearby to hold those drinks and also for those guests who simply like to “watch” and not partake in the dancing festivities!
Different Looks for your Cocktail Tables
There are several looks you can choose for your cocktail tables such as floor-length linens, sashed cocktails, or wrapped cocktails. Most standard cocktail tables are 30” in diameter and 42” tall. The shorter version is 29” tall.
