Plus 1 seating at wedding
My stepdaughter and I are very close and she is getting married soon. I am bringing a plus one to the wedding who is a very good friend mainly for moral support since my ex-husband and in-laws will of course be there.
My stepdaughter told me that she wants me seated upfront with other close members of her family during the wedding and asked if it would be OK if my plus one was seated elsewhere because apparently there’s not enough room for us both. I told her that I was honored that she wanted me upfront, but I would prefer to sit with my friend. I think it’s rude for an usher to take me up to the front and seat my friend elsewhere.
She really wants me to be upfront so I think now she’s moving people around to make that happen so that my friend can sit with me. I don’t want to cause any problems so should I tell her it’s fine for me to be separated from my friend during the wedding? I feel a little bad for my friend because she isn’t going to know anyone else there.
