Is everyone having their bestman and chief BM on their top table like normal? I ask this coz our bestmans girlfriend is a bit weird. she throws tantrums when she doesnt get her own way and ive been on the wrong end of one and it caused a big row because i dont take no crap. I know if I sit her apart from him she will go weird and think im trying to come between them. that will upset the bestman and then my H2B. Id like it traditional but not at the cost of upsetting my darling H2B. what do you guys think? xxx

We're having the traditional layout but then both the best man and maid of honour are single so no gf/bf drama. But honestly, if you want them at the head table then I say sod the girlfriend, it's your wedding and not hers, and surely she can make it through ONE meal without sitting next to her boyfriend.

I think that you should ask your H2B what he thinks? He knows them whereas we don't. sorry x

We are having the best man and CBM. The best mans wife (another BM) will be on a table next to the top table with the third BM, ushers, ushers partners and siblings.

Why should you have to please her on YOUR day? sod her and do it how you want, she must have a screw loose if the thinks anything is going to happen on your wedding day with the bestman

I speak my mind if ya dont like it then tough
Men cant live with them, cant legally kill them
I'm like Marmite you either love me or hate me!!
It seems to me that you might want everyone who is doing a speech on the top table? Just for convenience? So if Best Man is doing a speech, you can't really sit him in a dark corner..

Surely she should realize that this will be part of his role as BM...to be seated at the top table? I personally would slip it into conversation that this is how u want the lay out to be so she can throw her hissy fits before your wedding and not during...under no circumstances would I have her on the top table (just to avoid a fight)...ur wedding not hers hun!!!!!xxxx

i say just let her have her tantrum, obv if h2b is expecting it he shouldnt get too upset by her kicking off, if need be treat her like a 5yr old and explain the big boys and girls sit at the good table lmao

I agree with the ladies when they say its your day not hers. You decide where you want everyone and she will have to deal with it xx

Im having 2 top tables(wierd i know)! Me, H2b, our children and both sets of parents on one. My bridesmaids and best man, my brother etc are on the second top table. If we did traditional my brother would be on his own, so would best mans girlfriend x
