Where do parents sit?

I'm sitting mine close to the bridal party; the next two tables I think. Do what you feel is right for you. I'm close to mine and his family so I want them all near us. They'll sit with their siblings and relatives.

Mine sat with their siblings.

ETA: my parents were never married and (barely) tolerate each other in social settings for the sake of me and my sister.

Maybe ask them who they want to sit with. We aren't having a bridal party table, just a sweetheart one. My parents will probably be at a table with my sister, her BF and his family because we are all close.

I sat my family at two long tables (one parent at each) and my hubbys family at another set of long tables (beside each other as they are married). Both long tables were in the front close to the head table. We literally asked each one who they wanted to be seated around them and that's who we put there. My mom wanted more family. My MIL wanted more friends. I'm glad we asked.

I'm putting my parents (divorced, both have significant others) with the groom's parents. It's a 10 person table, and I only have 6 seated at the moment. I'm still working on if I should fill it or let them have their space.

EDIT (addition): We have assigned tables, not seats.

I had a immediate family table. There were exactly 10 of them so they all fit in one table

I did ask them. My mom wants to sit with her family in the back and my dad wants to sit near his family in the front. I feel they should be sitting in the front only bc there close to us I want my family near me.

Mine sat with my grandparents and our minister. My H parents sat on their couch. They didn't come until the very end.

Why does your mom's family have to be in the back, then? Can you have two tables of family at the front? I know you're not close to them, but that may make the most sense.

I don't have parents, but we seated my in-laws with my MIL's siblings. My FIL's family is not in the picture, so I guess it was easy in that sense. We also didn't have a bridal party table, so our siblings and such were just seated with their own immediate families, etc.

My mom wants her family in the back bc my great uncle needs to be near the door and the bathroom.

My parents are sitting with FH parents and all grandparents, at the table next to the bridal party

I think all our parents will be at tables close to our sweetheart table. My parents will probably be sitting with my grandmothers and my aunts and uncles. His mom and stepdad will probably have a table with their closest relatives. I figure his dad will also have a separate table, but all I know is we'll be seating people from my side with him. FH didn't invite a lot of people from his dad's side, and there's no way any of his mom or stepdad's relatives would enjoy sitting with dad.

Short story: three parent tables near our table so neither his mom or dad will feel slighted that the other got to sit at the official parents table with my parents.

We are not having a head table or announcing parents but we'll probably have close family tables closest to ours and go out from there.
