  Could you write how to arrange the guest seating on the reception? Some people say that you have to mix the Bride’s and Groom’s guests, others that the Bridal Couple sit with their parents, Best Man and Maid of Honor, or even that the Bridal Couple should sit in younger company.
According to savoir-vivre rules the order of seating results from family hierarchy and importance of roles. The parents, Best Man, Maid of Honor, godparents and grandparents should sit in the closest vicinity of the Bridal Couple. Farther – the other family members and friends.

De facto everything depends on you and your family traditions. The key to the guests seating should be the ease of communication (finding “the common language”) and having a good time, both for your guests and you. From my own experience the best seating schema is when the Bridal Couple sit with their Best Man, Maid of Honor and closest friends, the elders (they must be “mixed”) at a table in the closest vicinity to the Bridal Couple, and farther – the other relatives and young friends.

It is very important not to isolate families and friends from the Bride’s and Groom’s sides.

It is good to consult your ideas with your parents. Their opinion will be a very important tip on which seating configuration to use – the traditional one or something else.
