Tips for You to Plan Wedding Seat

In a wedding, plan wedding seating is important. It is true that buying bridal wedding dresses, modest bridesmaid dresses or wedding flower girls dresses is important. But peaceful atmosphere is also important. After all, it is not a good idea to put Aunt Masie next to Uncle Edward if they have been fighting for decades. It is not easy to make sure guests are comfortable with reception seating and who is sitting at their table. Here are some seating tips that maybe helpful.

Step 1:
Compile a list of the guests who will attend the reception. Make a note of each name and whether each is bringing a guest. These people will need to be seated with the originally invited person.
Step 2:
Find a large blank wall. If one is not available, tape a large piece of blank paper or card stock to a door, wall or other area that will allow you to work on your seating chart.
Step 3:
Write each person’s name on a Post-it Note. Include the name of the family member or invited guest on each sheet for cross-reference. Place the Post-it Notes to the side of the blank area you have prepared. Include the bridesmaids, groomsmen and the bride and groom on your Post-it Notes.
Step 4:
Cut round circles out of paper and number them. Tape them on to the blank area you have prepared (these represent the tables). Using the design received from the venue, place them in approximately the arrangement you are considering, leaving enough space around the circles to place the Post-it Notes. Create a special “table” to use as the head table for the wedding party.
Step 5:
Invite both the bride and groom’s mothers to assist with the seating arrangement. They will know the family “secrets” and should be able to provide insight into personalities. Have the mothers sit in front of the seating diagram you have prepared. Read each name aloud and ask for suggestions as to placement.
Step 6:
Add the table number assigned to each guest to the compiled guest list after a consensus has been reached. After all the R.S.V.P.s has been received you’ll need to approve a final seating chart.
