Our venue provides rectangular tables for the reception, so I was thinking of seating everyone banquet style to maximize space. I definitely want to assign seats, but I'm wondering how to do this since there will most likely be 6 super long tables (4 rectangular tables pushes together for each long table) and I definitely want our immediate family to be seated closest to us. Should the table numbers be for each long table (so Table 1-6) or should I mark each individual table that makes up the long table? Or, should I assign each guest a specific seat and label the place setting? I'm just worried that people won't know where one table ends and another begins. Thoughts?
