FI & I got the idea from another wedding we'd been to and thought it was so awesome. We really want to not do a head table or a sweetheart table and instead sit with our parents, my sister, and his grandmother. We saw FI's cousin do this and it looked so nice. We're both super family oriented and thought this would be great especially since we are having our wedding in another state so this way our BP can bring their dates and sit with them at the reception and no one feels weird.
When I told my Mom about this she seemed shocked and said "I hope you're planning on doing something traditional for this wedding". We are, by the way, having a pretty traditional wedding, this is really the only thing I can think of that we've decided to stray from tradition-wise. I actually thought our parents would really think this was sweet. Definitely wrong.
What are your thoughts? Are we being outrageous?
