so fi side is going to be very small about 30-35 people, almost all of his family lives on the west coast and they cannot make the long trip east. ( older aunts and uncles) health and other reason are keeping them from attending..

his head table is going to be his mom his god parents but then there are 7 seats left to fill

we were thinking of seating his best man and his wife

another good friend of his and her husband ( they live around the corner from his mom)

then that still leaves three seats left i dont know if we should put anyone else there

or should we just leave the head table for his mom and his godparents only?


the rest of his invites is close friends co workers and his nephew who is not blood related to his mom but we invited 2 of newphes siblings

Re: table arrangement question

  • Why don't you ask his mom who she wants to sit with?  I let my mom pick out who she wanted to sit at her table (as well as the other family tables).  DH's mom picked out who she wanted at her table (and the rest of their family tables).  DH and I each did our friends tables.  It worked out well. 
  • Yeah, ask his mom.  We plan on just asking our parents who they'd like to be at their table.

  • Def don't just put 3 people at the table. That will look weird like his mom is being segregated. I'd just ask her who she would like to sit with.
  • What do you mean by his head table? Where are you guys sitting?
  • I'm letting my mom, fiancé's mom and fiancé's dad (they're divorced) pick who they want at their tables. They all have some friends coming to the wedding so I'm not sure who they'll be sitting with.
