Posted by rentalstop in Events on May 29, 2025
At Rental Stop, we offer tables for every type of event – from elegant banquets to backyard barbecues. Choose from classic round tables (perfect for dinners and receptions), rectangular tables (great for buffets and seating arrangements), cocktail tables for mingling, and specialty options like serpentine or sweetheart tables for that unique touch. Whether you’re planning a wedding, corporate event, or casual get-together, we have the right table to set the scene!
Table Talk: Choosing the Right Table for Your Next Event
Tables do more than hold plates and centerpieces—they shape your event layout, encourage conversation, and set the tone for everything from weddings to weekend parties. At Rental Stop, we offer a wide range of tables (and smart add-ons) to help you create a space that’s both functional and beautiful.
Whether you’re planning a formal gala, backyard bash, or community festival, here’s a guide to the table types we offer and when to use them.
Round Tables: Classic & Conversation-Friendly
Perfect for weddings, banquets, and formal dinners, round tables promote interaction and a clean visual flow. Available in 48”, 60”, and 72” sizes, they can comfortably seat 6–10 guests. Dress them up with linens and centerpieces for a timeless, elegant look.
Rectangular Tables: Versatile Workhorses
Our 6-foot and 8-foot rectangular tables are ideal for seated meals, buffet lines, check-in stations, vendor booths, and more. Need something kid-friendly? We also offer child-sized tables and chairs to keep your smallest guests comfortable and included.
Cocktail Tables: Mingle in Style
Cocktail (or highboy) tables are made for standing, sipping, and socializing. Great for cocktail hours, open houses, and mixers, they can be paired with bar stools or dressed in fitted or draped linens for a clean, stylish vibe.
Picnic Tables: Family-Friendly & Functional
Planning a picnic, festival, or outdoor luncheon? Our classic wood-style picnic tables are sturdy, convenient, and built for casual outdoor seating. Want to beat the Texas heat? Add umbrellas for built-in shade and guest comfort—perfect for sunny summer days.
Specialty Tables: Create a Signature Look
For events that call for a little something extra, our specialty tables add visual interest and serve functional needs:
• Serpentine Tables – Great for curved buffet layouts or creative drink stations.
• Sweetheart Tables – A romantic, intimate setup just for the bride and groom.
Specialty tables help you break out of the traditional setup mold and personalize your space for the theme, flow, or style you want to achieve.
Don’t Forget the Extras
Choosing the right table is just the beginning. Add-ons help complete the setup and enhance the experience:
• Linens in a wide range of sizes and colors
• Table skirts for clean, professional presentation
• Umbrellas to provide shade with picnic tables or outdoor setups
• Chairs to match your event style—folding, padded, bar-height, and more
Our experienced team can help you determine how many tables you need, the right styles for your guest list, and how to lay out your event space effectively. At Rental Stop, we’ve got the table (and everything that goes with it) to make your event shine—whether it’s a formal affair, a casual cookout, or something in between. From classic shapes to custom solutions, our inventory is here to meet your vision.

How Rental Stop Can Help You Plan Your Holiday Party
Posted by rentalstop in General on December 17, 2010
It’s that time of year again, and planning a holiday party at your home or office is an exercise in creativity and organization. Like all events, your holiday party can be as simple or as lavish as you wish. Holding a party at your home or office is a little easier on the wallet than a restaurant or banquet hall party, but requires careful planning on your part to be successful. At a minimum, be sure to take into the account the following items:
- Seating: tables, chairs, linens (click here for our table and linen chart)
- Serving: dishes – paper, plastic or china? Will you need chafers, serving bowls, champagne or chocolate fountains?
- Details: will you need a dance floor, stage or margarita machine? Perhaps you will want to section off an area using pipe and drape.
- Space: use this handy space allowance chart to determine how much space you will need per person.
- Tents: if you don’t have enough space in your home or office, consider renting a tent to increase the available useable space. NOTE: in most jurisdictions, you will need a tent permit to erect a tent, even temporarily. Check with your city’s code enforcement office to determine requirements.
Using the above party rental tips and with a little planning, you can make any holiday party even more special – don’t hesitate to visit our website or call Rental Stop for all your party rentals and event rentals needs in the Dallas / Fort Worth metro area!
