Reception Etiquette & Banquet Captain Checklist

Equal VIP Sightlines (40' × 50' Room): Seat both households at equidistant VIP tables (Table 2 & Table 4) flanking the Sweetheart Table.
Acoustic & Dance-Floor Buffer: Place the 24' × 24' (576 sq ft) dance floor between separated family groups for a natural 28-foot sightline barrier.
Scoped Family Table Share Link: Send each parent a locked link to arrange Tables 1-3 while Tables 4+ remain read-only.
Couple & Plus-One Integrity: Lock partner pairs so auto-rebalancing never splits spouses or bridal party dates across tables.

VIP SIGHTLINE & CONFLICT SEPARATION MATRIX (130 GUESTS · 40' × 50')
• Table 1 (Center North): Sweetheart Table (2 Seats)
• Table 2 (West VIP Wing): Bride's Mother & Stepfather · 18ft to Head Table · Quiet Zone
