Head Table or Sweetheart Table???

We did a sweetheart table, and let our BP sit with their spouses next to us. It worked out great, especialy since we went to all the tables and said hi to everyone before dinner; we were rarely sitting.

I want to do the same as Analy-seeing as each BM and GM have spouses... i am going to have two tables to the side of us with a different center-pieces so they can still be special.

I'm a HUGE fan of the sweetheart table. As the fiancee of someone who was recently in a wedding, it's really kind of sad when you can't sit with your other half. Be kind to your wedding party and let them sit with their dates.

Im a sweet heart table. Just because i have been in 2 weedings where i had to sit up at the front away from my FH and kids and mom and Dad, one wedding i hardley knew the other brides maids. So i am saving my girls from that feeling.

We are having the sweetheart table. Congrats!!!!

I'm not sure yet...neither of us really like the idea of a sweetheart table, but I can understand the awkwardness of being someone's date and having to sit at a different table than them just because they're in the BP. Is there some kind of in-between?

Yeah the other thing we were thinking of maybe just have the Maid of honor and spouse and best man and spouse sit with us and then the rest of the party at the table next to us. I dunno . . .

I'm having a head table... I don't want my guests to feel like they are intruding on the sweetheart table when they come by to say congrats or something... besides my bridal party is mostly single... and my venue is way too small for extra tables! And I love having people I'm close with around me, I have the rest of my life to spend just me and him, when am I going to be surrounded by all our family and friends again!

Sweetheart table for us!

Our BP is all kids, so that decision was easy - Sweetheart Table! If your BP has a lot of spouses that are not part of the BP, I like the idea of having a Sweetheart table so they're not divided.

I am having a sweetheart table too. All of our BP are married (happens when you marry in your mid 30's and are the last ones! haha!) so they can all sit with their significant others.

I saw a idea that might work. instead of the traditional placement at the top of the hall the "head table" was down the center of the room. The guest tables were on either side but not too close so people couldn't walk to the bride and groom.

We're doing both. A sweethearts table for the two of us then a table on each side of us for the bp. This way dates of the adults/ parents of the children can sit there.

FI wants a head table and since I'm uncomfortable with a sweetheart table also that's what we're doing. Some of the BP are married some not but we figure that sitting apart from their significant other for 1.5 hours won't kill anyone. All the spouses/GF/BF will be seated together and everyone moves around after dinner is over anyway -- so no big deal.

We are doing a sweetheart table and the bridal party will sit by us with their significant others!

I really like the idea of doing the modified head table with the MOH and spouse and bestman and spouse sitting with us and a table on each side for the rest of the bridal party. With 4 BM and 4 GM, a JBM, a flower girl and ring bearer(my daughter) it would be a very crowded head table otherwise.

I'm having the sweetheart table cus our BMs and GM all have s/o's and I remember when I was a BM for my best friend's wedding, she had a head table and I didn't like having to sit there for most of the reception while my bf (FH now) sat at a different table with people he didn't know.

Unless our MOH or Best Man are bringing a date, we will just have a head table. Otherwise we will have a sweetheart table. There is extra room at the head table, we can squeeze in a couple extra.

We're doing a sweetheart table too with two bigger tables on either side of our table, just like Konichiwa did in her wedding. She posted a picture of that a week ago or so and it looked nice.

Sweetheart if you can!
