Unconventional Seating for Your Event

5/14/2014

Long banquet tables and rounds are the most traditional and popular options for events, but if you want to really mix it up and make a statement, consider more eclectic options.
 
Why not rent vintage tables and iconic chairs to create groupings perfect for conversation or networking? Depending on the decor you use to complete the look, your event can have a vintage feel or be very modern and design-minded.
Picture
Along those same lines, offering a mix of upholstered seating for your guests to sit on during a presentation or ceremony will make them more comfortable and your event will take on a totally different look.
Picture
Hay bales have become a popular way to create a casual lounge space both indoor and out. Just remember that hay can be pretty scratchy, so keep in mind that you may want to cover the bales with throws or cushions.
Picture
Grass-covered seating is certainly unexpected and will definitely have guests talking. Because green is a neutral, any color scheme you’re working with can be paired with this type of look for a fresh feel.
Picture
If you are not ready to move that far out of the box, maybe more traditional tables and chairs used in a different way is more your speed. Here chairs are mixed with lounge-like booths for a cozy atmosphere. 
Picture
Instead of round high boy tables or the usual banquet set up, tall Lucite Parsons tables are positioned end-to-end with coordinating seating. The arrangement of the seating itself is traditional, but the modern material creates a clean look and the height adds visual interest.
Picture
And if you truly prefer the look of a more traditional event but are looking for a small way to spice it up, mix and match the table shapes. Here an event is set up with linens, lighting, and decor much the way you would expect, but just by alternating between rounds and a cross set up, the layout feels less staid.
 
Tweaking details like the seating and layout of an event can make it more lively and memorable.
