Louis Medallion Chairs for a Gala or Fundraiser: Good Fit?
French upholstered elegance for the head table. Here is how the Louis Medallion Chair holds up for a gala or fundraiser, checked against what that event actually needs.

Why it works for a gala or fundraiser
Tables sell, so table count and sponsor tables drive the plan. An upholstered oval-back chair with carved trim, in the French Louis XVI tradition. It works for sweetheart tables, family seating at the ceremony and formal ballroom dinners.
Galas are planned by table, not guest, because sponsors buy full tables. Count tables first and round chairs up to match.
What it costs at common guest counts
- 100 guests: about 104 chairs, $2,080 to $3,120
- 200 guests: about 208 chairs, $4,160 to $6,240
- 400 guests: about 416 chairs, $8,320 to $12,480
What to watch for
- Does not stack: allow more setup time.
- Selling partial tables and then discovering chair counts do not match table counts.
