    Our venue lends itself really well to a sweetheart table (example from a previous wedding pictured), so we will likely go with that 😊

    I wanted a head table but that meant having to include everyone's SO and that's 16 of us, so no lol. We're doing a sweetheart table Smiley smile

    Our bridal party plus their dates is too big for a head table and we don't want a sweetheart table so we are just going to sit at a normal table with some of our friends.

    Originally planned on a head table, but as I got thinking about separating my bridal party from their SO's, I felt it wasn't right. So I switched to a sweetheart table!

    We weee going to go a head table, but a lot of the wedding party had more family members there, so we decided to do sweetheart so they can sit with their family for dinner

    Sweetheart table. We don’t have or want a wedding party. (Well, our two Lady Dogs will be our flower girl and our boy dog is the ring bearer.) I love the idea of the sweetheart table... after we make a quick round of the guest tables (smallish wedding of 40 max) we can sit at our table and share a few minutes of relative calm together before the frenzy picks up again. And it’s romantic to sit together, just the two of you.

    Sweetheart. FH and I have a lot of our own individual friends, so I know if I was at a head table myself, he'd be all alone

    Head table with the SOs of our bridal party. We'd rather sit with our friends than by ourselves and we don't want to separate them from their dates

    I'm not a fan of head tables, so we went with a sweetheart table.

    I am always team sweetheart table. You get some time alone, and your WP gets to sit with their SOs/friends/families.

    Sweetheart able for us! We want to be able to have a bit of “alone” time. I like that we will be a bit separated from everyone. It is so easy for the reception to be everyone else that the sweetheart table gives us sometime together.
