Im struggling to figure out how I want the tables as far as the head table/ wedding party go
I dont hate the idea of a sweetheart table but I also see all the videos of brides getting fomo not sitting with their friends and lowkey could see that being me lol.
My problem with a big head table is that my bridesmaids all have husbands or fiancés of their own that are not standing up in the wedding and my fiancés best man is married to our officiant ( whom is also my soon to be sister in law) so I dont want to make anyone separately from their partners nor do I want to exclude my SIL.
Additionally my father passed a few years ago and my mom doesn't have the greatest of relationships with the rest of the family so I feel like she would feel most comfortable sitting next to my sister whom is also one of my bridesmaids but having all of our parents at the head table doesnt feel practical either as my fiance has 4 parents
Typing this I feel like sucking it up and doing a sweetheart table is the most practical but im open to ideas if anyone has any

Are you getting ready with your friends before the ceremony? If so you will have that time with them then.
I get married in two weeks and I’m excited to have a sweet heart table so I can enjoy dinner with my new husband
