Both parents are single and no escorts will be there, where do they sit during the ceremony? In separate rows? They are not comfortable sitting next to each other, the father is giving the bride away. Who else would be in the row? Grandparents? Father & mother's siblings?

Immediate family (parents, grandparents, siblings) should be in the first 1-2 rows. If there is room, aunts and uncles can be there too.

Your parents could either sit several spots apart in the same row (dad needs to be at the end since he's your escort) or in two separate rows. Its also fine if one of them wants to sit on the groom's side of the church.

If neither of them are pressuring you--I say leave it alone. You have enough to worry about--they should be able to seat themselves just fine. ;) Good Luck!

I had similar problems with my wedding because my parents are divorced, but luckily they didn't mind sitting in the same row.

Do you have two sets of divorced parents or just one? How formal is your wedding going to be? There may be etiquette "rules," but they don't always take into account the unusual family circumstances.

I would say your first step is to find out how many people you can comfortably fit into each row, then see if the divorced parents would be comfortable sitting in the same row separated by siblings or grandparents. You can put them in separate rows, but then you have to decide who gets the first row.

Whatever you do, I would talk to the family members about it before hand, because you want them to know you're trying to make it work. Ask if they have some suggestions. They might not mind a seating arrangement you dismissed because you thought they wouldn't like it. If there is some hurt feelings on their part, it's better to get it out of the way before the wedding, which should be your big day and you don't want family members upsetting that.
