Seating guests

dh and I are at opposite ends. if the couple want to sit next to each other, they are in the middle of the side; man next to a ds, wife next to him with a dd on the other side
closer friends don't mind sitting apart

years ago, I sat next to dh. invariably I would be across from a man who would be a little too interested in conversing with me.

I would seat next to dh on one side of the table and the other couple opposite of us (no one at the heads of the table).
Breslov, does your DH have to seat at the head of the table or would he consider this?

interesting how eveyone answered. everyone is thinking about a square or rectangular table. my in laws have a round table, so ppl really are sitting wherever, as it is one big circle. my father in law sits at one place and my mother in law in another and the guests sit around the rest of the space.

growing up and now my husband and I as well, do it this way: the man of the ouse sat at one head of teh table and the wife sits near him. the guests are fished out to the other side of the table and worked around till the wife. I HATE it when my husband and I have been invited to someone where they put my husband near the husband and me near the wife, I do not like that at all, I like to be sitting near my husband.
