Wedding seating at the ceremony

Hi all,

We met with our wedding coordinator today and they mentioned about reserving 2/3 rows at the front for key people. I am thinking.

Grandma, Grandad, BM, BM, MOB, FOB G, BM, MOG, FOG, littleBM

Nephew, Brother, W's guest, Witness, MOH's HB, MOH Witness, BM, Witnesses HB

Readers HB, Reader Reader, Readers HB

I want the people involved in the ceremony to be close by and easy to get out and then it is just a free for all! Anyone I have missed that should be at the front. There is mine and OH's other two siblings but these are not part of the ceremony so it's not a problem where they sit. I need to do this as my SIL has already told me that she is sitting on the front row with her 4 kids, and her mum and dad and there is no way I am having that!

Looks like you've included key people to me. The only thing I'd suggest is you might want to add a row for your SIL and her children as you've included your brother so it might upset your OH's family if it looks like she's not included on the special seats? Wouldn't hurt to add another reserved row to make it look like you included her and also helps to make it even clearer where she should sit (ie. not the front row!)

Yeah, I too agree with DreamCatchMe, she should not feel like she is out of town....

Sorry never saw your reply!

The reason one brother has a seat is because his daughter is BM (on the front row) and he also has a toddler son who is a mini usher and he is on his own with the two so needs to be near both. No other brothers/sisters on either side are being reserved seats as they all have partners to help with their kids.

It's also my SIL and as she is demanding sitting next to her parents also (who weren't even invited but that's a whole other issue!!!) so that means reserving two rows and then I would have to reserve seats for my OH's brothers family and sisters family! Just don't want to go down that route!
