Bistro tables are the small-format tables that do the quiet work at an event: sweetheart tables for the couple, cake and gift tables, escort card displays, welcome tables, sign-in stations and two-tops on a terrace. Ours are hand-built in California from solid wood and rent from $110.

What planners use them for
Sweetheart tables
The most common use. A sweetheart table seats the couple alone, facing the room, and it is almost always the most photographed piece of furniture at the reception after the ceremony structure. Because it holds two people rather than eight, a solid wood top at this scale reads as furniture rather than as a rental.
Cake, gift and escort card tables
Every wedding needs three or four of these and nobody plans for them until the week before. They sit at the edges of the room where guests queue, so they are seen up close — which is exactly why a draped folding table undoes the rest of the design.
Welcome and sign-in stations
The first object a guest touches when they arrive. A console-height table like our Aalto Oak Console works better here than a dining-height one, because guests stand to sign.
Terrace and cocktail two-tops
For smaller events and corporate receptions, bistro tables give guests somewhere to sit during cocktail hour without committing the floor plan to full dining. Pair with chairs from $12 or bar stools for a higher setup.

How many do you need?
For a wedding, budget four as a baseline regardless of guest count: sweetheart, cake, gifts and escort cards. Add a welcome table if the entrance needs staging, and a signing table if the ceremony requires one.
| Use | Typical count | From |
|---|---|---|
| Sweetheart table | 1 | $160 |
| Cake table | 1 | $110 |
| Gift table | 1 | $110 |
| Escort cards | 1 | $160 |
| Welcome / sign-in | 1 | $200 |
| Terrace two-tops | 1 per 20 standing guests | $110 each |
A typical four-table wedding set therefore starts around $540 before delivery. Build your full furniture list with our event furniture calculator.
What to pair them with
Bistro tables sit inside a larger setup rather than on their own. Most orders that include them also carry farm and dining tables from $160, chairs from $12, a bar and tableware from $3.99 a setting. For the ceremony, see arches and chuppahs.
Frequently asked questions
What is a bistro table? A small-format table, usually seating two or used as a display surface, as opposed to a dining table that seats eight or more.
How much does a sweetheart table rent for? Ours start at $160 per event. Delivery is quoted separately.
Do I need linen? Not with a solid wood top — the wood is the reason to rent one rather than drape a folding table.
Can you deliver just one or two tables? Yes. There is no minimum order in Southern California. Outside Southern California a $5,000 order minimum applies.
