Banquet Chairs

Formal events such as wedding receptions and yearly galas require furniture that suits the occasion. Churches and non-profit organizations which host formal events on a regular basis, should own some banquet furniture so they don’t have to waste funds renting. Getting the right tables and chairs to and from the desired location on time can be quite complicated. Having the furniture on site will save money in the long run and eliminate the hassle and worry.

Banquet chairs are the ideal seating option for a social hall. While there are other temporary seating options available, none are as elegant. With padded seats and backs and elegant designs, they offer the stability and strength of high-quality furniture with the versatility of portable pieces.

Stacking chairs are always convenient to have around. They are designed to be piled high, saving space in storage and facilitating easy transport. Stack bumpers on their legs prevent them from getting scratched, so they will stay in great shape through many holiday parties and anniversary celebrations.

When choosing stackable chairs for a specific space, it is a good idea to coordinate the upholstery with wallpaper or paint colors. If the room that the chairs will be used in has elaborate decorations, a simpler chair pattern might be better. Alternatively, a very plain room might benefit from chairs with a more lively and colorful design.

In addition to the color and pattern of the chair upholstery, there are also different material options. For a less formal setting in which chairs will be used often, vinyl is a great choice. Vinyl is highly durable and very easy to clean. Fabric has a more elegant appearance and is available in a huge selection of styles. We have upholstery fabrics that will fit a wide range of budgets and rooms.

Another important component of stack chairs is the frame. Frame material determines the weight capacity and strength of the chair. While chairs with less durable frames might seem cheaper in the short term considerations, stronger chairs will last longer and ultimately be worth the extra investment. Frames are available in a selection of finish colors so you can create the perfect combination of upholstery and frames.

The shape of the top can be quite a distinguishing feature on a banquet chair. We have models with dome tops and oval backs as well as the classic rectangular back. Rounded tops have a softer, more stately appeal that can help make a space look more classy.

Appearance isn’t everything, though it is quite important. The distinct padded backs and seats of banquet chairs make them suitable for all-night events. Watching people squirm during a speech or toast is never fun. When all party guests have a supportive seat, they will be able to pay attention longer and appreciate the speeches and dedications that many people have spent time preparing. Cushion thickness determines how comfortable your guests will remain throughout the evening, so it should definitely be a consideration when selecting stacking chairs.
