Choosing the right size tablecloth is essential for a neat, elegant look. Here’s how to find the perfect fit for any table shape.
1. Measure Your Table
Use this simple formula:
Table Length + (Drop × 2) = Tablecloth Length
Table Width + (Drop × 2) = Tablecloth Width
Example:
A 60" x 90" table with a 10" drop → 80" x 110" tablecloth.
2. Determine the Ideal Drop
-
6–8 inches: Casual dining
-
10–12 inches: Formal events
-
15+ inches: Wedding and luxury décor
3. Round Tablecloth Sizing
Measure the diameter and add twice the drop.
Example: 48" table + (10" × 2) = 68" tablecloth.
