assigned seating at christening at afirehouse?

I had this same post about my baby shower and now i am wondering about the christening. if it was at a restauraunt i would say definitly but its the firehouse is it too formal to have assigned seating when i am only having it at at a firehouse? My idea is that people who come a little late like to have a seat with the people they want to sit with not get stuck sitting with whoever. Is it too pushy? opoinions please.

Let me add i knwo who does and doesnt get along or like each other

hmm, I don't know, I wouldn't do it. I'm having my son's Christening at a firehouse, too, and I'm not. It's not a wedding, so I don't think it's necessary.

We had our sons christening at a firehouse and didn't have assigned seating. I say let them figure it out for themselves, you have enough to worry about

I had Molly's christening at a country club and didn't do assigned seating. I don't think you have to.

We had Kerri's at a Knights of Columbus and let people sit where they wanted...I wouldn't like to be told where to sit at a place like that....people will gravitate towards who they want to sit with....and if they want to sit with those who are late they will save them a spot
