What to Consider When Purchasing Tablecloths


Tablecloths have the power to break or make the image you are trying to depict. You must pick the best tablecloth to achieve your desired image and service. Important things you need to consider include the following:

  Shape and Size: The size of a tablecloth helps communicate or portray the overall formality level. You need a 10-15" drop for formal outdoor events, and for casual events, a 6-8 drop is a perfect match.


  Event Tone: Tablecloths determine the mood for an event, from elegant and romantic to light-hearted and festive, to professional and serious. So you need to pick a tablecloth based on the event tone you want to achieve.


  Clean-Up Requirements: Outdoor luxury tables require reusable tablecloths. On the other hand, casual events and on-the-go services may blend smoothly with disposable covers.


  Price: Many tablecloth options are available out there. That means you can easily get a table cover that meets all your unique requirements, including fitting into your pocket!


  Colour: You need to know the theme you want to achieve. So study different colours and make perfect selections. Consider all types of colours, from bold (create festive displays and dynamic backdrops) to ivory and white (ideal for formal settings).


Outdoor Tablecloth Material Options


Your tablecloth material can set the tone for your next outdoor event. From rustic-chic burlap to sophisticated polyester and very casual, you’ve got many options to fit your visual appeal. Let’s look at the different types of tablecloth materials to pick from.

  Burlap: Burlap tablecloths provide your outdoor event with an overall vintage or rustic feel. While burlap would not provide the easy-of-care that polyester and vinyl materials do, there isn’t a perfect option to match a rustic outdoor setting.


  Vinyl: When you think of a luxury outdoor table, vinyl is the first material that comes to mind. Yes! You're right; vinyl is certainly a viable option. Vinyl tablecloths are usually easy to clean, stain-resistant, and waterproof.


  Polyester: A popular choice for a well-organised patio table or outdoor event is the use of tablecloths made of polyester. Pure polyester table covers are generally both stain and wrinkle-resistant. Additionally, they're machine-washable. Similar to vinyl, polyester fabric can repel stains and water but isn’t stiff, making it a softer option that hangs excellently from any outdoor table.


If you want to find the best outdoor tablecloths made of pure materials, from polyester and burlap to vinyl, find a top-rated provider in the luxury outdoors industry with a proven track record. With such a provider, you're sure to find a tablecloth that'll meet your needs and requirements.
