DH and I were alone at a sweetheart table.

The groomsemen and their dates were at one table and the bridesmaids were kind of scattered among 3 different tables ( 2 bridesmaids at each of the 3 tables)

Re: Head table at reception? Who is having one?

All I know is that I want to have a sweetheart table of just myself and DH. Haven't thought about where to put the bridal party. Next to us with significant others most likely.

Re: Head table at reception? Who is having one?

I am not having a head table just a table for me & DH. I am scattering the BP around depending on where they would sit if they weren't in teh BP b/c we feel that they should sit with people that they know and can have a good time w/.

Re: Head table at reception? Who is having one?

We're going to sit at a table with our best man and his date, MOH and her date, and FSIL (also a BM) and her date. The rest of the bridal party will be scattered amongst tables with our friends. I like the idea of having some of our close friends/family with us. I'm also not a big fan of the sweetheart table, but that's just my own personal preference.

Re: Head table at reception? Who is having one?

i had to sit at a head table recently, with my FH at a table with no one he knew. It was awful. THe BP table was actually a long table facing the reception - a la 1987 (sorry if anyone is doing this, but it's so dated to me.)

I would seat them with their date, or friends.

Re: Head table at reception? Who is having one?

Since my sis is my MOH and FBIL is my BM, we will all sit together with FSIL and sis's BF. I have 30+ years to eat dinner "alone" with FH
