TABLE SEATING ETIQUETTE...HELP!!

Ok...next hurdle....if a member of the BP is family, do they sit at family table or table with the rest of the BP???

Also....do you sit adults that know each other together or mix them up with younger adults??

We have a mix of our age and their parents and some teenagers that will probably have their own table.....

Re: TABLE SEATING ETIQUETTE...HELP!!

we tried to keep the generations together. the member of the BP that were friends, we kept together. i put my brother (a GM) and his wife (a BM) with our 1st cousins that we are super-close with. i kept all of my parent's cousins at one table. people will have a better time if they sit with people that they know, IMO.

I want to sit people with people they get along with already, or if they aren't too familiar with people, sit them with people you know they would get along with. I wouldn't sit my younger work friends with some of my parents older friends...

We are seating BP around the room - FFIL can't sit with ANYONE so we have to sit best man with him since it is FH's brother.

Then we have other bp people who are 26-33 and THEY CAN'T get along with one another - one or two just feel they have to cause constant drama so they will be separated.

Otherwise we will probably seat people based on who we think will have the best time with their table mates - whether that is by family or things in common.

I mixed my BP at the tables closest to us. We mixed generations for the most part as well.
