Best Dining Sets for Hosting the Holidays

With the holidays approaching, you might be starting to feel that overwhelming and stressful feeling that comes whenever you host your family. There are so many different aspects that you have to worry about when you are hosting, like the menu, the decorations, is there enough space in your home, or even if there is enough space for everyone at the dining table. It can be a lot to handle, that’s why we are taking one of those worries off your list with offering a list of the best dining sets for the holidays. There are plenty of different dining sets to think about but, we are going to be talking about stylish and comfortable dining sets that are either extendable or perfect for large families.

Extendable Dining Sets

These are the dining sets that are perfect if you don’t have a ton of space to work with in your home. They allow you to extend the dining table to fit more guests, and de-extend whenever the meal is finished, and you want your space back.

1. Hallanden Dining Table & 4 Chairs (Seats up to 6)

The perfectly neutral color scheme of the Hallanden dining set will be sure to fit in with your existing style. This set also features a butterfly extension leaf, which means that there’s an extension in the middle of the table that folds out from underneath the table-top. The best part? Once your guests have left, and you no longer need the extension, you just fold it up, and it goes right back beneath the tabletop. Not to mention the comfortable fabric upholstery on the seat cushion, making sure your guests are comfortable while they dine.

2. Moriville Dining Table & 4 Chairs (Seats up to 8)

With the Moriville Dining Table & 4 Chairs set, you will bring farmhouse style with the distressed nutmeg finish and planked effect top for added rustic charm. This dining set features 2 extension leaves that, when used, can extend the table far enough to seat 8 people comfortably. Cushioned X-back dining chairs feature a nailhead trim in an antiqued bronze-tone finish, further enhancing the rustic farmhouse style that you know and love.

3. Lyncott Dining Table & 4 Chairs (Seats up to 6)

Bring warmth and retro aesthetics to your dining room with the Lyncott dining table & 4 chairs dining set. A medium brown wood-tone finish covers the extendable dining table and chair legs, adding causal charm. This dining set also features a butterfly leaf, like the Hallanden, which means that, once again, it is simple and easy to extend the table out to seat 6 people, and put it away once everyone is finished eating. There’s also multiple colors to choose from for seating. The chairs come in light gray, dark gray, blue and yellow, all in the same soft polyester upholstery.
