Reception seating help!

I’m seating wedding party and their significant others at the head table. I dislike when significant others are made to sit at a separate table. I’m sitting parents at a separate table with other family.

We're sitting at a sweetheart table and our bridal party will be mixed in with the rest of our guests. Parents, grandparents, and the rest of our immediate family will be at the tables nearest to us.

View Quoted Comment We did exactly this. And for parents we didn’t mix our parents together we did his dad/stepmom and family at one table, his mom and family at another, my parents and family at another.

We are doing a sweetheart table and having a "head table" for FH side (parents and grandparents), a "head table" for my side (parents and grandparents) and then a "bridal table" with most of our bridesmaids and groomsmen. The rest of the bridal party is scattered with family and friends.

We are doing mix seating. We are not doing your traditional style wedding. It's being held at a big house and there will be seating inside and outside. Since we ate all family at that point and the reception will be more cookout party style the guest will be able to sit wherever. There will be designated seating for wedding party and parents/grandparents.

We'll have a sweetheart table for the two of us. Then my bridal party will be seated at several tables with their spouses/families. I didn't want to separate my BMs/GMs from their spouses and kids by having a head table. We will try to seat family together, except in the case of a couple of cousins who don't get along (they will be at different tables). But basically, we're trying to arrange people into the groups they belong to: FHs family, my friends, his friends, co-workers/neighbors, etc. Trying to avoid placing guests at a table where they don't know anyone.

I seated wedding party with their SOs, and just seated them as I would seat any other guest. I didn't have a designated "wedding party table," I just sat them with other guests that they knew.

I sat my parents and grandparents at a table with the rest of my family. Sat FH's parents and grandparents at a table with the rest of his family. Both our family tables were the closest tables to our sweetheart table.

We're doing a head table with all our bridesmaids and groomsmen.
We have spent years being split from each other due to head tables, so we see no problem with doing it.
We're going to set our friend groups children and spouses nearby with each other. We will be seating our parents nearby as well.
I'm an only child as are both of my parents so I have no idea who to seat with my parents.

Everyone in the bridal party and their significant others will be seated with their respective groups, ex my sisters with family, my bff with other college friends, etc. as for family I’m just breaking it up by family. Dad’s side cousins at one table, mom’s side at another. Dad with my grandma and his siblings at another. You can seat anyone anywhere that you see fit

We are doing a sweetheart table.y wedding party will sit with families. At other tables

I’m seating the party at a separate table, seating their dates at a table behind them. They’ll still be in close proximity.

Everyone sits with their spouse, fiancé or SO. My parents are divorced, and we are putting my mom with her brother, sister and Bil with my future inlaws. My dad is sitting with his wife with my fiances mom's sister and her DH, and the officiant and his wife. Yes, mix and match, but we are trying to keep people who do not want sit with each other apart, but keep people same age and somewhat the same interests together. My future MIL and her sister do not get along (long story) so we thought this was for the best. We are putting cousins with friends, all the same age.

We are having a wedding party table so my party will not be sitting with their significant others. They were all made aware of this way ahead of time and are all ok with this. All significant others are sitting at a table together because they all know each other. My dad, step mom, grandfather, brother, and a few other close family members will then be at one table and FH parents, grandparents, and other close family members will be at another. Other than that all other guests are placed at tables accoridingly with either mutual friends or other family members.

We decided to split up the wedding party at tables with their significant others and other people they were close to. Our wedding party is too large to have a head table with both the wedding party and significant others (we didn’t want to split up people in the wedding from their significant others). Our parents are both divorced so my mom, dad, and his dad are with their siblings and his mom is with her friends.
