I sit in the back and, when needed, take them out of the room! Yes, I miss the wedding, but no one else is distracted. If at all possible, I leave them home.
They're not pretty, but a cost effective system for the sleep-deprived. If you have a regular nurser who does both sides every time, it's not an issue, like my son. But if you have a "dabbler" wh...

Schnappycat, We have the Guenther Family high chair and love it. Be sure your table doesn't have an apron...none of these will likely fit if it does.
