I was just wondering if for the head table we need to make accomadations for the groomsmans/bridesmaids dates to sit with them also. They aren't part of the wedding party but I understand they would want to sit with the people they came with. Should the dates be included at the table?
If the bridal party is small, spouses and partners of the wedding attendants can be seated at the head table. If it is large, you have two options. One, seat only the attendants of the wedding at the head table and seat their spouses/partners near by. Or, two, seat 1/2 the attendants and their spouse/partners at the head table and the remaining at another table. The problem with the second option is that those wedding attendants who are seated at another table may feel like they aren't as important.
Another option would be to have a sweetheart table -- just the two of you and let your 'maids and groomsmen sit with their date/spouse/partner at tables among your guests. This is a nice option which puts you guys in the spotlight without making others feel left out.

Thank you so much. That is a great idea, I would have never thought of that.
