3 Wedding Seating Arrangement Mistakes To Avoid

Your wedding guest list is finally finished, you have found a Banquet Hall in Miami with the right size to fit all of them, but most importantly, made sure they will be comfortable.

Now, it is time to work on the seating arrangements.

This part can be stressful, especially if you have a large guest list.

But with the right banquet hall for your wedding, and the right decor and designer, you can have this arranged in the most efficient way.

In order to help you avoid seating arrangement issues, we have created this quick list with the top 3 wedding seating arrangements from our team’s point of view.

Let’s begin with…

No Wedding Seating Arrangement At All

It is better to create your wedding’s seating chart with the way the banquet hall will be decorated for your wedding and remove the guesswork for your guests.

Some couples have chosen to do a free seating arrangement, to give their guests the freedom of sitting wherever they please.

But to keep it under control, it is important to give each of your guests a respected seat. Also, keep in mind some guests may not arrive on time. If you have a long list of guests, it will be quite difficult for them to find a chair or a table.

But most importantly, you want your guests to feel unique!

Nothing shows this more than saying ‘Sir/Ma’am we have the perfect seats for you.’

Remember, it is all about the experience. This will show that you and your partner thought about each guest before the wedding.

Avoid trying to create new friendships with your seating arrangements

Many times couples will match their guest’s seats together, to help create new friendships. It is a lovely thought, but you need to keep in mind they might not feel as comfortable with this arrangement.

Your banquet hall should have enough space and enough entertainment for people to get to know each other.

So keep those who know each other together during your wedding’s reception, for a more warm and comfortable atmosphere among your guests.

Not seating family members together on the same tables

We have experienced weddings at our banquet hall, where guests come from all over the world.

Some guests have not seen their family members over the last few years or months. Making sure they are sitting together, allows them to enjoy your wedding reception while being able to catch up with each other.

Take the easy route and make them feel comfortable by arranging their seats with each other.
