    Hi, guys.

    I'm trying to find table linens, but have hit kind of a weird snag. The owner of the reception hall I'll be using told me that he has some tables that are 2.5 ft across (so approx 96") and other tables that are 2 feet across (so, approx. 75").  Thing is, I can't for the life of me find any mention - anywhere - of 96" tables.

    Has anyone ever come across a 96" table?  If so, does anyone know what size overlay I would need for one?

    Thank you very much,

    Willow

    @willowsworld: 

    Are you speaking about rectangular tables? Your measurements seem a bit off.

    Do you mean 2.5' or 30" (76 cm)  and  2 ' (61 cm) wide?

    Or are you taking about 2.5 yards or metres long?

    How long? 96" is a common length for banquet tables.

    If you want just plain colors, check favormart.com for overlays.

    if they are rectangle tables, those measurements are exactly right.  The 2.5' ones would be 8 feet long, and the 2' ones are 6 feet....

    I dont get it though, where you got the 96 measurment

    Ok so your 96 is the length, I get it now.

    You can get table linens for that...you would need a 53"x120" table cloth

    I dont think that it is standard for overlays specifically for that table, so what you would need to do is compromise and get squares.  Most people use runners on long tables

    ETA

    the 53x120 would be used on the 6 foot tables

    you would use 90x156 on the 8 foots

    I found these on a local party rental site so they are fairly common sizes
