Thoughtful Seating Arrangements

While seating arrangements have always been “tricky,” or even complicated and problematic, now is the time to reclassify this wedding-planning step as “thoughtful.” Post Covid-19 weddings should be accompanied by an increased attentiveness when it comes to seating arrangements – and guest proximity overall. If you have a cousin that travels for work or works in the healthcare industry, it would probably be thoughtful of you to keep that person seated away from your elderly relatives who mostly remain at home.

New Design Aesthetics – Intimate Celebrations where Less Really is More

One thing wedding designers know inside and out – it’s working with seating arrangements, layouts, and spatial design. This is likely to be something that will be constantly adjusted as the medical community and local governments continue to adjust and solidify recommendations and guidelines.

From ensuring social-distancing rules are followed to spacing and seating guests according to households, a different type of post-pandemic aesthetic is beginning to emerge. Dinner layouts and ceremony seating will require some creative management to ensure everyone remains safe while thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Whether you are choosing an indoor or outdoor venue, as a couple you will need to confirm capacity limits and rules. Fundamentally, weddings are likely to become smaller and more intimate going forward as spaces are used differently. Shorter guest lists will allow for fewer people to share larger spaces – allowing for more room and distance between various groups.

Guests will benefit from these new practices, as wedding budgets are allocated to ensuring each guest experiences the finest cuisine and libations, entertainment options, and other, personalized touches that may not have been possible with a larger group of attendees.
