Work out how much floor space your party needs and how many chairs and tables to set out.
How this works
Allow about 0.9 m² per guest standing, 1.1 m² for a cocktail party with some seats, 1.2 m² for a seated dinner at round tables and 1.4 m² with a buffet. A dance floor needs about 0.3 m² per guest. A 150 cm round seats 8, a 180 x 75 cm table seats 6.
