Planning Tips
General Room Layout Information for Weddings
Some things to remember when planning your room layout:
- When deciding on a wedding reception floor plan, make sure that your guests aren’t far away from the action! They should at least be close to the head table, dance floor or entertainment
- Place the cake table close to the bridal party so that it isn’t stuck in some obscure corner. Do not put the cake table directly in front of the bridal party because it will block the view of the bride and groom
- Make sure that the D.J. or band is close to the dance floor.
- If you are having children at your reception, you may want to place them all at the same table if they are old enough to sit alone. This way, if you have a separate menu for the kids, the servers know exactly which table to serve the kids menu.
- If you have guests that come alone, you may want to sit them with another single guest so that he or she isn’t the only single person at the table
