Sweetheart Table or Head Table?

Which seating arrangement are you choosing for your wedding: a sweetheart table (just you and your new spouse) or a head table (you, your new spouse, and wedding party members)? Or maybe even a different option altogether? Share what you're choosing for your reception seating arrangements!

    Awesome! Head tables are a great way to spend time with your wedding party. Will you be seating the plus ones of the wedding party members at the head table as well? Or will they be seated among the rest of the guests?

    That makes sense! It's especially considerate to make sure that your wedding party members each get to sit with their partners.

    I agree with this! Sitting at a head table means you'll be having conversations with everyone at that table, and if you're looking for a few moments just to you and your new spouse, a sweetheart table is a good way to build those moments into the day.

    Popular choice! Will you be seating your wedding party at their own table? Or will they be seated among the rest of the guests?

    Not sure yet, probably with everyone else as we’re only having a small wedding party.

    It's definitely nice to be able to take a few moments to yourselves on the wedding day! A sweetheart table is a great option for making sure you get those few moments to unwind.

    It's very considerate of you to make sure your wedding party is seated with their plus ones!

    I can totally see how a sweetheart table would be alienating. A head table is a fun choice, to get to enjoy a meal with your closest friends and family!

    I'll likely go with a head table! I actually want to sit among my guests somehow!

    Oh wow, 20 people at one table is a lot! This sounds like a very unique and fun setup!
