Girls Who Have Done Seating Already--

How do you pick which tables go where??

I already see this as a problem and am concerned with putting older people too close to the band-- but our table is on the opposite side of the ballroom- and we want our friends around us..

Directly next to DH and I:

ONe side was my brothers and my BM's.
The other side was His sister and cousins.

We put our dads and their friends at the other end of the room b/c the tables worked out good for that.

We put our moms 2 tables away, and did friends on the inside. Does that make sense?

ETA: then we just put the rest in the left over tables
