[Help] Who sits at the main table of the wedding banquet?

If the newlyweds also want to attend, the center of the main table is the bride and groom. Under normal circumstances, the bride sits on the groom's right, and then the groom's left hand side is sorted as the groom's mother, father and other family elders, sitting according to seniority; The bride's side is basically the same as the groom's side. The difference is that the bride is next to her father, followed by her mother and other relatives. If there are not many relatives and the seats are not full, arrange the witnesses, groomsmen and bridesmaids to sit down.

2, the newcomer is not seated.

Nowadays, in many cases, newlyweds don't have time to sit down at weddings. They will go to the front desk from the wedding, and after the ceremony, they have no time to sit down. Instead, they will start toasting table by table until the end of the wedding banquet, so at present, many wedding banquets do not leave seats for the bride and groom. At this time, both parents will take the most central position at the main table, with the two fathers of the bride and groom sitting in the middle and the mother next to them.

The arrangement of wedding seats varies from place to place. According to Yantai custom, the bride's big guest is at the first table, and the host and big guest should face the stage in order to watch the wedding ceremony. But if the big guests are from different generations, they should be arranged separately. The so-called "two generations have different seats." When arranging tables on the welcome table, it is generally called the first table of the dragon table and the phoenix table. When setting the table, it is best to arrange people of the same sex and the same age who are familiar with each other at the same table. In this way, having the same language at the banquet can enhance the atmosphere of the wedding reception.

After the wedding, the banquet began. At this time, the bride should not rush to change her dress. After the hot dishes are served, she will move a chopstick to show that the guests can open the table. When the wine is over 30 and the food is over five flavors, the bride and groom should go to each table in turn to propose a toast to each guest. When toasting, hold the glass for the guest with both hands, but don't force the guest to drink it all at once.
