I have been to a few weddings where the wedding party stands during the ceremony, where they sit, or just the maid of honor and best man stand. I am thinking of just having my maid of honor (sister) and the best man (finance's brother in law) standing versus having everyone stand. I was in a wedding...

I am thinking of just having my maid of honor (sister) and the best man (finance's brother in law) standing versus having everyone stand.

I was in a wedding as a bridesmaid and she had all the wedding party sit which was nice because then we didn't kill our feet standing for so long.

What do you guys think and what are you doing?

    My BP is sitting but that's because me and FH are sitting. I am chronically I'll and can barely stand in one place five mins and with pictures and stuff I'll be in pain already. So it's been talked out with the officiant (details will be worked out at the rehearsal) since the guests are their for us and not him that we will be sitting facing the guest and the officiant will be facing us back to the guest with a lapel mic so they can hear him.
