Interracial seating chart

Latonya, on October 20, 2019 at 3:16 AM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 9
Ok I am having an interracial marriage in 2 weeks . I am doing the seating chart and trying to group people with other they know or are similar to. Anyone a little scared of pp getting along? I have limited space so there HAS to be a seating chart putting people at particular tables.

    I'm half black-half Filipino and my fiance is white so we have 3 different races and I haven't even considered that as an issue.

    My children are mixed and our crowd will be pretty diverse, as well.
    When creating my seating chart, I did not consider race at all, but rather professions, hobbies and political views.

    Our wedding in August will be interracial. We plan on seating everyone with people they already know but even if there are a few tables that are combined I don't think there would be an issue! Everyone invited is there for us and I would think it would be fine.

    I’m Latino and my FH is white. We’ll have a seating chart but aren’t worried about people getting along. Our families all know it will be a mixed race wedding, and we know them all to be kind people. I don’t think it should be a problem unless you know your families are racist (which does happen).

    I think I’m a little unclear... what do you mean when you say grouping guests by who they are “similar to”? Also, is there a prior experience that makes you feel like your guests wouldn’t get along?

    We didn't consider race when doing our seating chart. If someone would have been unhappy with who they sat by because of their race, we wouldn't have invited someone like that to our wedding.

    I'm half Japanese, half white, and my family flew in from Japan to see the wedding. Since there was a language barrier, I grouped all the Japanese speakers together so that they wouldn't feel awkward. APart from that, we grouped by people who knew eac hother, by common interests, and by family.
