does my bridal party table need to sit together? although everyone is very important to us, they hardly know each other.
the kids (ages 5, 8, 10, and 16) have family they can sit with my brother and his girlfriend have family to sit with two best men can sit together with girlfriends and some other friends my matron of honor has family coming my other bridesmaid has her family coming too
wouldn't the above be more appropriate places for them?
me and fh will be at our own table which i LOVE!
thank you
edited- when i posted this thread showed on the bottom that was very helpful- yay!
No, I like the idea of FH and I having our own table and our BP to sit with their friends/families/SOs.

FH and I will be seated by ourselves. BP will be sitting w/ dates, family and friends. I think that is most comforable for everyone

me and DH sat at our own table, and the BP sat at a table w/ their dates and friends. we figured that would be most comfortable for everyone, as well as the most fun!

We're having the BP sit with their families or people they know. The groomsmen will probably all end up sitting together, since they are all FH's friends and most know each other.

We have 11 people in the bridal party, and if you include SOs that makes 14. I think that is too many to fit at one table.
I don't know for sure what we will be doing but we've considered having the girls at one table with their dates and whatever friends, and then the guys at another table with their friends.
Or, we might just mix around. We are not separating people from their dates.

your BP spent a lot of money and time to make your day special, they shouldnt have to spend one second of it sitting with people they dont really know, i'm sure they'll all be nice and friendly by the big day, but they deserve to enjoy every minute to! seat them with people they would want to sit with, i'm sure they will really appreciate that

They are with their b/f, husband/wifes and friends no one is actually at the same table.

We have our own table as well. I don't think the BP has to sit together, especially if they don't know eachother. I say let them sit where they will be comfortable.

I think BP should sit with their 'others'.

FH and I will be sitting by ourselves. The kids can sit with their parents and the bridal party will sit with their dates.

We are sitting the BP with their family. Although the one brother-groomsman-wanted to only be in the party if he was able to sit with his wife. I hated the fact that he put a condition on it, although we figured doing that before that statement.

No they dont have to sit togehter, one thing I have found out is that peole in the BP unless they are all friends would prefer to sit with the people they know. All our GMs thanked us for NOT making them sit at one of those tables.

same here. there's no need for it. the 'dais' tradition went out a while ago...if u prefer it and WANT to do it then that's totally different... by all means go for it - but there's nothing that says you have too. we didn't.

FH and I are sitting together at a sweetheart table. My BP will be scattered around the room with their dates/family and friends.

My Fh and I have our own tables and the BP will sit with there families. I have been to many weddings where the BP sit with the bride and groom. To be honest they do not sit there for long. They go and really sit with there families and friends and you and your husband are left there with an empty table and I think it does not look nice.

I want the bridal party to enjoy themselves, and be able to be with their significant others/families. It's weird when their date is sitting along all night!
I love the idea of a family table...our parents, our siblings. My cousin had a sweetheart table and they just seemed uncomfortable sitting there by themselves,but it might just have been how it was set up.

Re: bridal party table with poll
I am going to put our bridal party with their friends. And then whoever is in our bridal party that is a relative, I will put with other family members. I think they will enjoy that more.
