What is the best way to arrange seating for my wedding party? Most of my party has spouses or dates. I want enough seating for all of my guests but there will be no assigned seats. Should I reserve tables just for the party, or let them fend for themselves?
By all means reserve tables for the families and for the bridal party. One note is that if you are not doing a seating chart, add a few extra place settings for family groups that want to sit together or guests who haven't rsvp'd show up with no seating allowed for them.
