So we finally purchased a rug to put under our dining table. The problem is that the table is extremely heavy, the table top is stone, 8 feet long, which is not attached to the wooden base. We must lift the stone top first, then the base, and then place the rug. This seems like an odd question, but in realizing we need to invite 6 people over to help us with this task, I want to know the best way to do this. Should we just have people lift up the table top, and the base and we shimmy the rug underneath, or is it best to move the table to the other side of the room, place the rug and then put the table back?

I would basically have the people lift off the heavy top and then slide the rug in place under the legs of the table. You will need two people do this task.
The rug should be laid out flat so that your can easily lift up the leg and slide it under the table.
If you can move the table top to another location it is also a good idea to move the table legs out of the way.
This will also depend on where the people are standing and if you have room to slide the rug in place.
