In the traditional etiquette of China, the seat is closely related to the identity and status of people.

The seating arrangement of guests at the wedding is a headache for many prospective couples. In China's traditional etiquette, the seat is closely related to the person's identity and status. How to accurately grasp the needs of each guest at the wedding? How to arrange it reasonably ...

1. What if there is no way to estimate how many people there are?

Solution: write down the names of all the people to be invited one by one, and everyone will do it separately. For example, the groom will write down the person the groom wants to invite, the bride will write down the person the bride wants to invite, and then the in-laws and parents will write down the relatives they want to invite. We do these things in the computer. It is suggested to use excel tables here, which is also convenient for statistics. Ordinary people use ordinary fonts, people with uncertainties use blue fonts, and then those with family members use red fonts. This is clear at a glance Then roughly estimate the total number of people.

2. What if there are too many uncertain people?

In my case, there is a problem because the wedding reception is at the peak of the wedding ceremony. Guests may receive n invitations on the same day, so the uncertainty is slightly greater. Moreover, several students from other places may or may not come, and when they come, they will basically bring their families. First, there will be two. How can I reserve this seat? Let's count two people. In case they don't come that day, wouldn't it be a lot of space? No, if everyone comes and brings their families, the seats will definitely be a little crowded. So what should we do?

Solution: These floating guests, even if they are one person, are really counted, because we won't have a table full of ten people, and there are still some seats in the middle. Besides, there are tables to prepare. With such a mentality, it is impossible to come or not to come that day.

3. Can colleagues and classmates arrange to sit at a table?

Generally speaking, colleagues are basically without family members. If classmates and friends have family members, be sure to bring them, so that the number of colleagues can be counted. It doesn't matter if there are nine or ten people at a table, so the activities of classmates and friends will be greater. At that time, there must be a few more people at the colleague's table. Can I put it on my classmate's desk? We were strangers before. Would it be awkward to sit at the table? Or will one or two colleagues prefer to sit alone with chairs?

Solution: I think this problem is not big, and the age levels are basically the same. Even strangers are friends when they sit down. This happened when my husband and I had a wedding reception. I didn't know all the people at the table, and I had a good time. The point is that everyone knew me when I said it.

Do you want to arrange one or two leaders to sit at the main table?

Because the parents of the staff at the main table and the best man and maid of honor basically have one or two seats left, in this case, arrange two leaders to come and sit down. If you arrange the leaders, which one should you arrange? Many leaders, it is not easy to ask who sits at the main table, or sit there by themselves? Or arrange for another relative to come over? This is also a problem.

Solution: Basically, we will find someone to act as a witness on the same day, whether it is the leaders of both sides or the elders, so just add another witness at the main table and don't arrange other leaders. Just arrange the one who will be the witness, so as not to get entangled.
