hi ladies. Are you all doing thebride and groom sides for your ceremony? I realized that if we do, it's gonna look segregated. Lol. My goal isto have people interacting with each other. Even if it is free seating people will probably gravitate forwards those that they know. I just do wanna do it. Lol.
What are you gonna do?

    Yup...I would do it...let them intermingle.  Its going to be obvious who is related to whom--everybody!!

    Now my family is already segregated... LOL...mine is in Philly and his is in Portland.

    Now since we both come from very diverse families...there will be an array of colors at both events.

    No, we're not planning to do Bride/Groom seating. We figured out that it's going to look segregated no matter if we do it or not. Lol.

    We had our ushers direct people to available seating. We reserved the first 2 rows on each side for the bridal party and the immediate family of the bride and groom but other than that, the ushers sat guests as they came in.

    We're letting people sit themselves.  Whether they are on the bride or groom's side, as long as they have a seat and can see the ceremony they should be fine.

    I know it will completely look segregated having the grooms side and the brides side but I like tradition so thats how we are doing it....and I know with open seating they will end up sitting with people they kno so wether we have a groom/bride side or not itll all look segregated lol. I just want everyone to be comfortable and not force anyone to mingle... ALSO we are having a cocktail hour between ceremony and reception with belly bar tables and servers I know this will get everyone moving and mingling on they're own(HOPEFULLY)

    We have no plans for bride and groom sides.  It would be too uneven (of the 60 guests, only about 10 are from the groom's side).  We wouldn't have the problem of it looking segregated -- just lopsided.
