Its not unusual forfamily dramato erupt before awedding.
One bride thought she had it all figured out with her innovative seating plan.
If only for a few hours.
But her grand plan came at the expense of her mother and stepfather.
And backfired horribly when her mom heard about it.
But also wants to seat her new husband at a separate table.
The mom is now considering not attending the wedding but isnt sure whether its the right thing to do.
The father and his entourage would then take the second row.
In terms of the reception, there are various options.
This arrangement is convenient because it keeps the most important guests together.
The other option is to seat each set of parents at equivalent but separate tables.
But its important the pics arent placed intrusively.
Another simple but effective way of honoring the dead is to pay tribute to themin a speech ortoast.
Or to play their favorite song during the reception.
There is no rule that says you have to honor them on the actual wedding day.
Maybe with a photo of them, or aspecial sign,readsthe site.
You could even dress it with a bouquet similar to what the bridal party is holding.
Especially if you expect them to sit next to the empty chair.
Or if the chair in question replaces their own living spouses spot at the table.
