Sweetheart Table or Head Table?

We are doing a Sweetheart table. Our wedding is going to be on the smaller side, so we will still be close and accessible to anyone who wants to come and chat. Everyone in our bridal party has families, so we figured it would work better to give ourselves the illusion of quiet time and for them to sit at a table with their family.

Sweetheart table!

We wanted our bridal party members to be able to sit with their significant others and I fell in love with some sweetheart table decor. Our venue is large, so we wanted to be a little separate in seating from the guests and have a mix of round tables with 7-8 people and then three long farmhouse tables of 10.

View Quoted Comment I considered their on table but I also have married couples and children in my party that would be separated from their parents and spouses. Do in my original table setting I belive I did wedding but with their spouse included. Kids can just go with their parents.
