    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.

    The spouses of the wedding party will sit amongst the other guest.

    Such a cool and unique seating arrangement! Did you seat yourselves towards the middle of the table? Or at one of the ends?

    Very cool! Did you seat your wedding party's plus ones at the head table too? Or were they seated elsewhere?

    Actually all of my bridal party was single except for two couple and it happens to be my brother, my sister in law and my husband’s cousin. My brother and sister in law and now cousin was in the wedding party so they sat at the head table but I believe I placed his wife sat at the table with his mom. They met up after dinner. As for the single people, plus ones wasn’t an issue because it didn’t come up about it.

    That makes sense! A sweetheart table sounds like a good option especially in that scenario.

    Good option! Are you also seating the plus ones of the wedding party at the head table? Or will they be seated elsewhere?

    I think the plus ones will be at a table together close by.

    Those reasons all make sense! It's very considerate of you to make sure your wedding party gets to sit with their families.
