I've been thinking about the top table, and it's not because we have any bizarre family squabbles/hatred etc etc but whenever I've been to a wedding, the guests all sit round big round tables and have a right laugh and the main people (B, G etc) sit in a big long line with everyone gawking at them as they eat and they can only really chat to whoever's next to them.
I don't really want this. I'm thinking about either getting a round table for be and OH, my parents, his parents, CBM and his BM. But CBM's husband won't know anyone else and isn't very social - I do not want him at my table so that's not really an option.
I suggested a sweetheart table to OH - he wasn't really that keen but he did like the idea that our parents could then 'host' their own tables - they seem to be very excited at the thought of their children getting married and the bragging they'll get to do on the day as important people lol
I'm now thinking it would be just ace if we were sat on a table with our friends, parents had their own tables and everyone was just scattered around. I see my parents all the time, some of my friends I only see once a year and I'd rather spend my time with them to be honest!
Any suggestions? Or should I just suck it up and sit on a round table with the parents and feel like I'm a kid again lol
