Seating Arrangements

Hi all!

I am working on my seating arrangements right now.  Wondering....1st - Do the DJ and Photographers get their own seating since we are serving them dinner also?  I believe my DJ no matter what will end up eating while working anyway, but wasn't sure exactly how this works.  2nd - We have to priests officiating the wedding, one who doesn't know us and one that has known my fiance's family for a while.  That being said.....where do I seat them?? Obviously together, but near/with family or no?

Thank you in advance for your feedback!

  • We provided a "vendor" table. A lot of venues have places specifically for vendors to eat, too. I would seat the priests near family if they won't know anyone else. 
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

  • DJs generally eat at their booths since they play music during dinner.

    Your photographer will let you know their plan. Sometimes it's in the contract, and sometimes you have to ask. Ours just wanted a "boxed meal" since he was busy shooting while people were eating. We kept it in the fridge for him along with a few cupcakes to take home. (Our reception was in a hotel suite.)
  • awesome! thank you both for the input!
