Now, if you want the tablecloth to drop all the way to the floor, you will need 30" drop instead of 15". Formula: top = 60", drop from edge of table = 30" (X 2 - two edges), for a total length of 120 inches.
STANDARD SIZES
48" round table needs 70" cloth
60" round table needs 90" cloth
Or for an old style "square-on- round" look, use a 120" round tablecloth with an 85" square tablecloth on a 60" round table
72" round table needs 120" cloth.
SQUARE AND RETANGULAR TABLES
The standard banquet table is 30" high, so to drop halfway to the floor you need to add 15"per side.
So, if you want to cover a 55 inch square table and have the standard 15" drop, you will need 55" to cover the table-top, then an additional 15" on either side of the table: top = 55", drop from edge of table = 15" (X 2 - two edges.) You will need an 85" square tablecloth to cover your 55" table and still have 15" of drop.
Rectangular Tables must take into account both the length and the width.
STANDARD SIZES
6' rectangular banquet table needs a 60x102 cloth. (15" uniform drop)
8' rectangular banquet table needs a 60x126 cloth. (15" uniform drop)
90x132 cloth: when used on a 6' banquet table the cloth will drop all the way to the floor.
Use this formula for any size table: add to the diameter of the table 30" for a standard drop. For a drop that goes all the way to the floor add 60"to the diameter of the table top.
