We are a bit conflicted about what kind of tables we want at our wedding. His mom got really upset when we said we wanted long tables- I already lost 2 arguments regarding the way I want my wedding to go. So, we are wondering what are the benefits one over the other? Our wedding should be around 50 guest, I will need to separate some people- hence, Long tables = assigned seats. Her claim is that it will be difficult to engage in a conversation on the long/tuscan tables.
Just an overview of what I want for the wedding: short simple ceremony (we've been together for 10 years), hang around w friend and family at the cocktail hour and a sit down dinner. We are not having a real reception...so any advice??? And sorry for the rant...both of our families are being a pain...
