    No chairs at our wedding. It will be a nice ceremony on the beach just the two of us.

    My wedding venue is handling the seating part because we are doing the ceremony and receptions at our venue

    Please... for all things holy... let my reception tables be matching. It would bother me so much if they aren't.

    Our venue has benches/chairs already set up for the ceremony and the chairs and tables are all the same in the reception hall, so that was picked out for us, but I like the uniformity.

    I like the look of mismatched chairs but I don't have an option on this one so they will all be uniform because that's what my venue offers.

    I love the mixed chair look, but we will sticking to a uniform look. It's just simpler that way as far as rentals go.

    I wanted to do ceremony chairs and then tables and chairs but the venue is just not big enough. so everyone will be sitting in their dinner seats during the ceremony. The chairs are plastic costco chairs so wanting to get chair covers

    Clean uniform look, because that's my personality. But I absolutely love when people mix it up and add some flair! I love the eclectic look. It's so fun and quirky!

    Definitely will be all the same considering our ceremony is in a church.

    Matching definitely. But it will probably be inside. I'm not certain about that yet.

    Sadly the same. We're getting married in a church, we can't exactly removed the chairs.

    We're not planning on having a long ceremony anyway, so I don't think standing will be problematic.

    Well, I’m getting married at an amphitheater with cement seating, but my goal is to borrow enough mismatched quilts to cover the seating area. So there’s a mixing.

    Matching is easier to coordinate

    I hadn't thought about this, but as we're having so few guests, they can have matching seats. There's a wooden table with accompanying benches, so we can move those into the spare room.
