Everyone who’s doing a sweatheart table instead of the whole bridal party table, are you still doing a bridal party table in with the other guest or just mixes them up within groups of family/friends?

    We're mixing them in with the best family or friend table for them.

    Mixing them up. Part of the reason we chose a sweetheart table was we wanted our bridal party to be able to sit with their friends/family. Especially since they didn’t necessarily all know eachother, I didn’t want to force them to sit and mingle when there were other people there they would’ve been more happy and comfortable sharing a meal with.

    Mixing them up with who they know or would have fun sitting next to. But we also plan to have those tables close to the sweetheart table.

    I plan on mixing them in. His GMs will sit with their dates and friends, my MOH and one BM will sit with their dates and friends. My cousin who is a BM will sit with her date and our family, and then my FSIL and FBIL will have a whole table to themselves because they're a family of 6!

    The GM/friends and MOH/friends tables will be close to ours though.

    Ours will be mixed in with the people they're closest to (whether that be family members or friends).

    Thanks everyone. I think I’ve decided on mixing them in with the other guest that they know.

    We are going to mix them with whoever they would want to sit with. My sister, moh, will be at our family table while the best man will be with the friend group.

    We are having a distinguished bridal table; however, the best man and matron of honor are my sister and his brother so they will be sitting at the table with our parents and their kiddos.

    We mixed them up, so they'd feel comfortable with friends. Most of our BP were friends, but not all, one was my SIL, so she was with her family...

    If you're doing the sweetheart table (which I recommend), just mix and match until you've got a good vibe at a table.

    We will have a few tables closest to us reserved for family & wedding party and since our wedding party is mostly our siblings they will all be at the same table then our friends in wedding party will be seated close but with other friends they know!

    We are having a King's table where our wedding party all sit with us on one side of the table and their dates directly across from them at the same table. This way we still have a head table but our wedding party can still enjoy the company of their dates.

    I'm doing a little bit of both. I have some family in mine so they're seated with the family and the rest of the wedding party is all seated together.

    This is a good thread. I am so glad i clicked on it bc I wanted to do a sweetheart table and then a wedding party table (rectangle) but now I am thinking I should just let them all sit with others in the families for them to be more comfortable. I'll just ensure my MOH and his BM is close to our table.
