@mrs-v-to-be: I don't have a baby, but I would prefer to have the baby between myself and FI if I did. And not every guest is "kid friendly" I would hate to put a child next to one of those people....
I would place the baby between the parents. They can always switch places after the meal. A kids table is a good idea but will only work for children @ 4 and older who can feed themselves.
I don't see that it really matters how you put them as long as they are all in a row. they can always just move the baby in between them or to one side if thats how they prefer.
As one of those "non-kid" people, I would prefer it if the child is seated between the parents.
For ther other guests it is best to seat the child between the parents. Personally, I would rather avoid sitting beside a kid at all costs (even though i quite like kids in general), meal times are messy and I will be in my finest clothes for a wedding.
Does a 6-month-old baby really need its own seat? I know, I know, I’ve heard it before: “You can’t expect the parent to carry the baby all night.” My rebuttal to that: If you don’t want to carry the baby all night, don’t bring the baby to the wedding. I know I sound super rude about this, but I just don’t feel I should take up a place setting for a baby. :0s
I’m extra glad to see a post on this because I’ve definitely been wondering what other brides are doing about the baby thing.
Another question: At what age DO kids really need their own seat? (Because let's get real--since when did you see a 2-year-old stay seated for more than 3 minutes?)
My vote is to sit the child between the parents. The child is comfortable and each parent has an adult they can talk to on their side.

Hi bees
I'm just doing my seating plan..if you were going to a wedding with a 6 month or 1 year old baby would you prefer to sit with the baby between you and your SO, or sit next to your SO and have the baby next to you (in a high chair) with another guest on the other side of the baby?
Thanks!
