    was wondering if anyone is having a hot buffet for the day time guest instead of the formal sit down, as i dont know if we still should do a table plan for people we are having the reception in our social club and thats where we will be going for the hot buffet after the wedding any advice welcome

    I am having a hot buffet for when we get our Venue. I have made a table plan, because I think it makes it a lot more organised. Let everyone find where they should be sitting then open the buffet, that way no one is going to start arguing about who is going to sit where, and that way it should be nice and orderly and organised for when it comes the speeches and toasts.
    Hope this helps. xxxx

    You could do that, what we are having, is we are going to have everyone from the main reception towards the top, with some empty tables at the back for the people who are coming later, and then they are being cleared o the side a bit more to allow more room for later on in the night.

    Hope that helps. xx

    The top table should be, as follows from left to right

    Chief Bridesmaid/Maid Of Honour - Groom's Father - Bride's Mother - Groom - Bride - Bride's Father - Groom's Mother - Best Man

    This is basically what mine will look like (in Theory), but you can seat it anyway you like really. xx

    Oh dear, yeah I know what that's like. My fiance has one job and that's to organise the Fair for the Reception, but I'm pretty sure I'll end up doing it myself. lol!! xx

    Yeah, my mum hasn't really, I thought she would, but because we've arranged to get married before I think she thinks we'll end up putting it off again. xx
