The Parkes Hall Social Hall can seat up to 150 guests at 60" round tables. For traditional wedding receptions, it is recommended that no more than 120 guests be accommodated to allow for food/beverage serving space and a small dancing/mingling area. A variety of room setups can be arranged by renting tables/chairs from an external source, speak with your coordinator for more options.
