Everything You Know About Creating A Wedding Table Plan Is Wrong
Posted: Nov 08, 2010 |
]]>
When it comes to creating a wedding table plan there’s only one simple bit of information which is important to bear in mind if you’re going to be able to create your table plan successfully. The simple piece of advice which I would offer to anyone preparing to embark on creating a wedding table plan is this: everything you know is wrong.
That might seem a little disheartening, but in many ways it’s actually good news. The reason is simply because many of the traditional assumptions relating to wedding table plans are based on little more than myth and hearsay. Tradition is all very well, but sometimes it is important to break from tradition. After all, it was traditional to burn anyone you didn’t like very much at the stake, by simply claiming that they were a witch. Sometimes traditions are best confined to the history books.
This is very much the case as far as creating a wedding table plan is concerned, because if you ask almost anyone for advice or information about how best to go about creating a table plan for a wedding, most of the pieces of advice you receive are not only wrong, but they can often end up costing you time, money and effort, to say nothing of your blood pressure.
Creating a table plan is a time-consuming process, requiring reams of paper, an endless supply of pencils, the world’s largest rubber, the patience of at least a dozen saints, and a spare two or three years. Or at least, that’s how it is if you follow most of the traditional advice as far as creating a wedding table plan is concerned. In fact it needn’t be the case that creating your plan is difficult at all, or that it takes a long time to do, as long as you abandon tradition, and think of yourself.
For example one of the many traditions is that you must have a top table. Certainly this always used to be perfectly possible, and a nice tradition. But just as we don’t burn witches at the stake any more, society has changed in so many ways that often trying to create a top table within your table plan is nearly impossible.
Families are more dynamic, relationships more complex, and often it can end up being that more people have to be sitting on the top table than anywhere else in the room. With many of the parents of Brides and Grooms divorcing, and remarrying, it can be a nightmare trying to sort out who ought to sit where. It’s certainly been known for a top table to have almost 20 people sitting on it, and this just simply doesn’t work.
So in situations where families are a little more complex, or a little larger than they may have been in the past, it may be prudent to abandon the idea of having a top table altogether. There are plenty of alternative ideas, many of which are likely to prove far more successful. The decisions you make when creating your wedding table plan will have a very noticeable impact on the success and the atmosphere of the event itself.
