Think you’ve got it all figured out right? What could you possibly be leaving out of the whole picture? You’ve thought about the catering, the venue selection, the photographer and even the logistics/parking space. Well here’s a tip from abelldjcompany.com; ‘The seating arrangement.’

If you plan on having a wedding reception involving tables, you’re going to need a seating plan that expresses coordination and coherence. A seating plan is vital if you want to avoid a chaotic situation in your reception and in making the entire event enjoyable for everyone in attendance.

The Basics of Reception Seating

If you’re one for the conventional, then you may go for the head-table style where the bride and groom sit at a long table along with the rest of the bridesmaids and groomsmen. In this arrangement, the couple’s immediate family (parents, siblings) also sit at the head table and some officials like the ring bearer and little brides.

In adopting this style, make sure you allow adequate room for the dance floor and proper movement. Also, if you have guests who aren’t capable of looking at each other in the eye without getting in a fight, then you should tweak things a little bit, so they don’t get to meet at all; this way you avoid any unnecessary problems.

Catering needs

Another point worth consideration is the catering style you wish to adopt. Round tables are perfect for a family-style wedding or you may go for long tables and big rectangular tables that help you create the intimate atmosphere among guests and saves you money in the process (you’ll need fewer tablecloths). If you’re however, going for a buffet-type wedding, then you should go for the seating arrangement that allows such a style.

In conclusion, you should go for a seating arrangement that puts your ideas in sync with your chosen venue. Venues like The Larrimore House Plantation, St Louis offer seating arrangements that accommodate your reception needs.
