Assigned Seats or Assigned Tables?

We're having assigned tables. I figure the majority of our guests are adults so they should be able to work out seating amongst themselves.

Assigned tables, people can pick their own seat

I have s seating chart and name placement cards. They dont have to stay in their assigned seats, i just think placement cards on top of napkins looks nice

Assigned tables. We are having escort cards.

Assigned tables, beyond that they can work it out amongst themselves.

Tables! I didn't think assigning seats was necessary.

Neither, it’s a seat yourself style. We are 2 family’s becoming one and I want everyone to mingle.

Just assigned tables. Assigning seats seemed like an unnecessary task.

I agree, placement cards are really pretty and can complete the look of a table setting!

With the amount of divorces in my family I’m doing assigned seats. You would think they can be adults but they get very immature

I have assigned tables, we are doing tables of 8. I have some with 6, some with 7, and some with 8, and one with 5. It was easier to keep everyone in circles by 6-8 than by separating them into bigger groups. 7-8 worked out mostly because some were bringing dates and others were not. But I don't have a lot of random people just to stick somewhere.

We're assigning tables! We don't really care what chair everyone picks, but we are assigning tables to make sure bridal party and family sits closest to us, etc.

Wow, that's a nice idea! It's great that you are having smaller tables to ensure that everyone is seated with the people they know!

Assigned tables most likely. I know we won't do assigned seats but we have considered having a couple extra tables and only reserving a couple family tables.

Definitely will be assigning tables, but thinking about assigning seats for our small head table

One long, farmhouse style table with assigned seats.

Assigned tables. We bring in our own tables and chairs, so can pick how many people sit at each table. Assigning seating at a larger function is really unnecessary-it’s designing more for dinner parties, where you want people to socialize.
