I'm going to disagree with this. Every table absolutely does NOT have a great view. In fact at the party I went to, our table was along the back fence, behind the bushes and one of those giant torch holders. I could see fireworks in the sky, but the globe on the water and the fire part were obstructed. I had to get up from my table and walk toward the bar to see. I was careful not to stand in front of other tables.
I think I went to one of the first parties last summer, so hopefully they learned not to put a table there. I did speak to someone with a clipboard, but I don't think I was actually listened to.
That being said, I did enjoy the party and I did book it again, but at least now I know to ask to be re-seated immediately if I get stuck in that spot again.
