RSVP's due tomorrow, over half haven't responded! AND seating question.

AngelaBaker87

Our RSVP's are due tomorrow and over half of the guest list has not responded. Mostyly FI's family. The mailbox was completely empty yesterday. =( I hope we get some today and tomorrow or else I'll have to hunt down a lot of people on Saturday!

Seating question: There are 10 people in our bridal party including FI and myself. The biggest table at the venue holds 10 people, so where do the bridal partys significant others/plus one's sit? I want them to be able to sit together. Our wedding will have mostly family and a small group of friends. So maybe have two friend/bridal party tables? hmmm

Thanks!

I am having more then one Bridal Party table also so everyone can sit comfortably and with there "date". I just made sure the tables are next to each other.

I'm sitting with FI, MOH, and BM at the head table, just the 4 of us.  Then we're having 2 tables on each side of us.  One with Bridesmaids and their husbands/kids, the other with groomsmen and their dates/kids.  I think that will work out well for our situation.  I would consider doing that with yours as well.

Thanks, great ideas! I will talk to FI about this.

Ugh. I'm glad i'm not the only one experiencing this. Coming to these boards really helps not feel as crazy as I think i am!!!

We're having a sweetheart table and anyone involved in the WP is sitting with their SO at various tables. Our friends are all in nearby tables, but we didn't want to split anyone up from their date (it's always awkward to be alone at a wedding....)

Good luck with the RSVPS!

My friends had a table for themselves, their MOH & Best Man (and their dates).  They had another table for their bridal party & their dates so everyone could sit with their date.  It looked nice and worked well.  You could totally do this with two bridal party tables and a 'head table'.

We're going to have a sweetheart table and then more than one bridal party table so everyone can sit with their dates. 

That's so weird, the only ones who have not responded for us are also FI's family!

We're doing a sweetheart table as well. It's just easier than worrying about friends sitting alone.
