Dais question?

Does it matter what side you sit on I notice that a lot of brides sit on the left as you are facing the dais.

I want to sit on the right as the lay out of the room suits my tables better.

I don't think it matters, but to get technical I think the left side is the brides side when facing the dais and she gets the odd table numbers. That is just what I have been told from a few people.... But it's your day!!

i thought the groom gets teh odd #;s

brides family is always table 1 and grooms is table 2?
no??
