I like to call it "Encouraging Mingling"

When we have spoken to people about our wedding and we report all in all most things are going smoothly.  They stop, look at us blankly, giggle to themselves and say, "Have you done your seating chart yet?" When we would say no they would laugh and laugh.

Okay it wasn't quite like that but I swear it was similar.  We love our friends and family but where do you sit everyone.  Person A knows this person B, but dislikes this person C who likes person B. You know some crazy math problem like that. Or these 11 people are a great group, but fitting more than 9 adults at a table is tight and can you just take 2 and put them anywhere?  We had two go rounds at the seating chart, Jessi made little stickies and we placed them all over imaginary tables.   It gave us a clue but at that time we were missing a few RSVP.  Which let me tell you can drastically change a table and it did.

So last night before heading out to our last date as legally single, we figured it out.  Especially on my side I set random people together to mingle everyone will know at least one person at their table. If it's not the perfect seating situation, after you are done your dinner get out on the dance floor.  The whole event runs over 5 hours (Ceremony; Cocktail hour and reception) the room is on the smaller side one eats dinner for an hour I hope people can make the best of their tables.  :-) And after the food is done get up and Mingle around the room and then mingle your way on to the dance floor. :-)
