"I'm sitting where?"

The  "Royal Wedding" is less than a month away.  So far, other than writing an occasional check and giong through the torture of finding the perfect dress, this whole process has been pretty painless - UNTIL NOW!

So I am handed of list of all the guests from my list that are attending and I am told, "please make table seating assignments"!  PANIC!!

Okay, so we are not one of 'those' families who can't put this uncle with that aunt, or that cousin with this cousin - but the stress is there still the same.  My family actually likes one another, well, most of them do anyway.  I remember gong to a family birthday party in someone's yard where there were tables of 6-8 set up and my cousins lifted the tables are re-arranged things so it was one BIG table with everyone sitting together. 

The first agonizing decision will be who to put at our table.   Are people going to be offended by their table numbers?  Can't we use something other than numbers?  Numbers seem to relate to some order of importance.  I think everyone should be sitting at MY table.  Since a table for 100 is frowned upon, I have no other choice but to split up the family/friends and hope I make good decisions. 

I did ask for a table for 2 in the corner, but the bride and grrom had dibs on that table.
