King's Table
King's Table: A long banquet table for the couple, wedding party, and immediate family — guests sit on both sides.
A king's table (sometimes called a banquet head table) is a long rectangular table — typically 16 to 30 feet — where the couple, the wedding party, and often immediate family all sit together with guests on both sides. It feels more communal than a traditional head table and works beautifully in long, rectangular venues like barns or galleries.
