What are your thoughts on aisle seating and Officiants

Carine, on February 8, 2023 at 10:39 Posted in Wedding ceremony 0 11

So many options for aisle seating, the new trend is set up like a fashion show, or the officiant in the middle of the aisle so this way you are facing everyone and not your backs turned. As for the officiant, it makes sense as when the first kiss happens, he's not in the way, you are looking at your guests and apparently makes a great group shot. For the aisle, I mean if the seating is at an angle so guest do not have to turn their heads, could be a good idea.

How are you doing your aisles and where is your officiant/ or priest standing?

Do you think these are great ideas or a trend that will die down fast? Have you tried this and what is your opinion?

    I feel like those ideas are good for small groups, but for anything larger, like mine of ~100 people, we're going with more traditional front facing layout because it works better with the venue. I guess it depends on how much space and how many attendees you have.

    I actually love the spiral one, this way everyone sees the bride, no one is blocking her view.

    Something to talk to the venue and try something new, I am down to do it and give my feedback.

    I like it simple. I can see what they are talking about with the officiant. Looking at your pictures I am excited for spring and the wedding.

    These are subjects i've been seeing a lot on Tiktok, I love the officiant standing in the aisle so we are facing our guests and they can see us and our reactions.

    As for the seating, something to think about.

    I actually really love the fashion show layout idea - I find it really chic and everyone can get a view but I think works great as long as there are not too many people (a clean line on either side like the below photo is pretty I think!) I also really love the unity look of the circle (guests would see the couples back but the idea of being close and personal with your guests I love). I can appreciate anything different and that is out of the "norm"
