But making tables is really a pain in the ASS.

lol! It really is! I'm so glad we are basically done. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but I'm just tired of hearing people complain about who they want to sit with, who they don't want to sit with. So annoying!!

I've got no problems with people sitting with other people or anything but getting the tables so that there are no single seats open is soooooo annoying!!!  Plus I'm trying to keep up with it while RSVPs are coming in so it's not a last minute thing.

Not to brag, lol,  but I had no problems with this.  (only 90 people and I did 10 tables so I have some with 8, 9 or full 10 ones. 

Keep at it!  I'm sure you'll find the right combination!

I keep ending up with like the random "where do I put this couple"...lol

I had this issue doing the seating chart for the RD (yes, FMIL made me do this) and that was only for 40 people. I don't even want to think about how we have to do this (THIS WEEK) for our 150 guests.

Seriously, what a pain in the butt....this might end up being the most stressful part of the whole planning process...

I am not doing seating charts.  It would kind of be pointless for us because we have 25-30 people attending our wedding and that includes FI and me.  We are having our recption at a picnic area and the tables are picnic tables. 

I understand the stress seating charts can put on people though.  At my cousin's wedding 16 years ago there were people that were not wanting to sit by other people and she got so fed up with it that she told them that they were going to sit where she put them and if they didn't like it they didn't have to come. They shut up after that. Haha!
