We're struggling with table arrangements too! I broke up our wedding party instead of having everyone at a head table. It was just too many people to be practical, and we didn't want to move a date singly to another table. Instead it's:
Bride/groom/bridesmaid 1/Bridesmaid 1's date/MC bridesmaid/MC bridesmaid's date/single bridesmaid/best man/best man's girlfriend. The adjoining table is the rest of the groomsman, and a 3rd table has the rest of the bridesmaids.
I'd at least try to keep dates together with their partner. It's a celebration of couple-dom after all :)
Yup. We only put them with our most fun friends though :) In a way, they got the best end of the deal!
hmm i was also trying to alleviate the problem with perhaps having some additional ppl with me at the sweetheart table but I don't know how that would work.
i was wondering, if we did it where all the wedding party was seated next to the bride and groom, where does their date sit? I just imagine it to be strange to have their dates at that table, especially if I never met them before.
thoughts on that?
i know i feel bad about the seating arrangements too. i don't want to split anyone up but my FI thinks it's fine. i'm still thinking on how to do this..
So for us the wedding party was split into three. Some with us as detailed above, another table of groomsmen and their dates, and another table with the remaining bridesmaids, their dates and a few other really fun guests that they are already friends with. Part of our problem is having 6 bridesmaids and 6 groomsmen!
If you plan on having a date sit apart from their SO, I would plan to do that for all the SOs of the wedding party, so at least those people can sit together. My sister did that at her wedding, and it worked out ok, but our dates were pretty disgruntled!
i am also concern about splitting up the wedding party because it is a smaller group and do you think they will be offended if one person is at a table closer to me then another. I know it seems petty but I am afraid that may happen?
I checked with our wedding party and they laughed at me! They said I worry too much and they are happy to sit wherever we want them to sit. :) Such good friends!

so I am havin a hard time for my seating arrangements for the headtable because some of those in my wedding party have dates, while others dont so our table arrangements are either 10 per table or 12 per table. Right now we are at 11, would it be okay to move a date to another table or is that a big nono?
