[quote=Anonymous]Huge, mostly local family as DH & I grew up in dc area. Here’s what we do/have done: -rent china, glassware and silverware for Thanksgiving dinner. Items are crated and delivered. No washing dishes, either. Rinse and return to crates (like a commercial dishwasher). - rent folding tables, chairs and linens. The rental company can set up the tables where you want . Again, just removed linens and toss in provided bag. Tables can remain in place or not. Brooke Rentals, BTW and FTW! Ordered (in advance) smoked turkey and a basic full meal from Whole Foods. No one is to be heating up or baking a thing at my house on Thanksgiving. You do not have to eat in the same room at one massive table. We used round tables and had a table in a large foyer, 3 nearby in the living room and used existing kitchen and dining room tables. [/quote]
