    Hey everyone

    I've been a bit quiet on here recently but thought with only a month to go I better get back in to last-minute wedding stuff.

    I've done my draft table plan and I know how I want it displayed (just got to actually do it!). So my question. Is, on the table plan would you put the full names of guests or what we call them. Eg mother of the bride mother of the groom etc. And would you put aunty xxx or their full name??

    Tia xx

    On our table plan we just put the first name down and then the initial of the surname if there were more people with the same name.

    We put full names on ours. Each table was listed separately with guests full names, but the top table was listed horizontally across the top with full names, and me and hubby were in the middle as Mr & Mrs Corsham

    Ours was as the same as charlotte. Full name of all guests but ours was Mr and Mrs Lindsay. Of the four weddings we have been to this past year it's always been full names. However a wedding we were at a few years ago it was just first was interesting when I went to take my seat next to hubby and his mum with the same name as me was dat at it took awhile for it to sink in her seat was a couple seats up lol.

    I would put full names to avoid any confusion.

    I do like the idea of for the top table putting the name and position underneath.

    I think we're going to use full names - or if they have a role, use their role instead.

    We've used full names on the table plan and the favour box tags have their role (we've obviously let the venue know who's who

    Most of our guests are bikers and as such have their own nick names. Think we may use their real names, just so that it embarrasses them, as a lot of people only know them by their nicknames. Could be quite funny to see the other guests try to figure out exactly who is who.

    Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan

    We had full names for guests but the top table was us as bride and groom and parents as mother/father of the bride/groom because (hopefully) we're only going to use those titles once so it was nice to have them shown. X

    We put full names down - apart from ours, we had The bride and groom.
