Table Arrangement

[jaiho]

Hi mga sis, don't know if meron nang ganitong thread..

Anyway, my concern is the guest's enjoyment.. that's why i came up to make a table arrangement for them to enjoy the party.. Gusto ko kase tabi tabi ang tables ng family ko and tables na rin ng mga family ni hubby.. of course i can't put them at the back.. so tables sa front and middle rows ang reserved for them..

Do you think ok ang ginawa ko for other guests? like me if i attend a party na hindi ko masyado close yung hosts, i always occupy the tables at the back.. and i don't feel naman na hindi ako importante.. do you agree with me na yung mga hindi masyado kilalang guests should and would occupy the tables at the back..

ayoko naman kase ma-feel nila na hindi sila importante but i know based on experience na they would most likely occupy that area rin naman diba? or you think nakaka-offend?

Thanks in advance sa mga comments!! I'm still thinking and I need your advice sana..

sis, sken baligtad ginawa ko... yung family ng hubby ko since malaki naman sila and they will definitely occupy half of the area. nilagay ko sa unahan lahat ng friends ko, officemates.... yung hindi namin laging nakakasama sa celebration... POV ko lang huh...

hirap din akong gawin ang table arrangement simply because yun family nya dedma with the RSVP thing...

with us, since equally malaki ang family namin ni hubby (during our wedding, relatives pa lang namin, 200 pax na), alternate ang ginawa namin... they don't mind kasi close family ties naman...

i guess depende rin yan sa inyo... di puwedeng yung style nung isa eh maging style mo rin...

@sis jhoanne, by column ang ginawa ko hehe.. 1st column family nya.. middle column would be occupied by friends and other guests.. 3rd column would be occupied by my family.. kaya both families meron talaga mapupunta sa likod kahit family pa cla.. i'm worrying about other guests like you.. san mo [textspeak!] upo sis? You wanna stay in front sa middle column kasama ko? kaya lang meron kasi kami Singaporean Friends na pupunta sa birthday ni baby.. matanda na yun dati namin land lady mga late 50's na ang age.. magkapatid cla and kasama apo nilang bata..super hirap intindihin super inchek accent.. kaya i think ia-avoid talaga ng guests ang table na yun..

@sis bluekaren, di sila pwede magtabi di kasi close family ni hubby at family ko pareho kaseng mahiyain kaya kala mo lagi first time magkita kita..

^mare, kung saan may kilala at pwedeng makipag-chikahan... hehe

[bluekaren780]

^ ay, mas lalo kong pinagsasama yun ganyan para maging close... he-he...

ako sa party ng eldest ko i didnt assign na table arrangements, everything went smoothly naman, this time sa 2nd daughter ko ganun nalang din gagawin ko, my guest freely sits where they want

with my son's first birthday this coming march, i don't plan to have table arrangements para less hassle na rin. other guests kasi have their own preferences kung san uupo and i want them to feel comfortable naman.

thanks sa mga inputs mga sisters.. i'm still considering it pa ren whether to have one or not.. i want lang talaga din tabi tabi yung mga guests na magkakakilala.. like mga gt moms isang table lang sila..

sometimes kase late ng dating yung iba then pag may gusto silang upuan na table where may kakilala sila occupied na..

isipin ko pa ulet many times

[jhoanneaganda]

@stacey, sister hindi din ba mahirap yun... lalo na kung marami kang guests...

[stacey30]

^ i think hindi naman sis kasi for sure lahat ng magkakakilala yun yung magtatabi tabi. baka kasi hindi maging effective yung table arrangement samen since chinese sila hubby. i want them to sit wherever they like. 

[jhoanneaganda]

^good for you sister... =) goodluck sa party preps...

Nung party rin ng baby ko last Jan 9, wala ring table arrangements.  Ok naman kasi nagtabi tabi ang magkakakilala tulad ng sabi ni sis stacey. 

Pero minsan, maganda rin may table arrangement, kaya lang madalas kasi hindi nasusunod. Uupo pa rin sila dun sa table na may ka close sila.

kami walang seating arrangement. i'm still thinking if kailangan ba? pero bka hindi. bahala na siguro guest magtabi-tabi sa mga feel nilang katabi. hehe.

[jaiho]

Actually hindi naman ako OC sa pagiging organized nung party.. kaya nga [textspeak!] ko may table arrangement kase ia-arrange ko sila para magkakatabi ang magkakakilala.. para kung ma-late man yung iba.. pagdating nila katabi pa rin nila yung mga kilala nila..

i'm doing this para lang mas magulo, masaya at enjoy..

Plano ko gumawa ng seating arrangement parang wedding. Pero naisip ko , kung 90 adults, 25 kids lang, pwede na sigurong wala?

Upo nalang sila kung saan sila may kakilala??

[darna88]

definitely mas maganda may seating arrangement lalo na sa chinese relatives ng hubby ko they want magkakasama sila or kung di man halos magkakasame tabi ng tables   ..and another good thing for having seating arrangement para naman yun mga senior citizen di ba they will be sure to get a nice seating ..if ever na meron hndi sumunod its fine but at least majority of your guest makakatabi nila yun mga like or kakilala nila,,sometimes kasi hndi amiiwasan may mga nalalate but still if theres a table number no worries na maoccupied chair nila...tsaka ako mas like ko relatives mas near sa buffet table kaya maganda tlaga may table number

We had about 150-160 guests and had free seating. It was mostly family and the only friends we had were the ninangs and ninongs. I didn't bother with a seating arrangement coz frankly, we almost broke up because of the seating arrangements when we were planning our wedding! Hahahaha It worked out ok naman.
