As the OP stated in one of her posts...... she wasn't worried about there being enough chairs because it was open seating and she figured people would be done by the time the step daughter arrived.
It worked, the girl who came late took the available chair..... just like the hostess said she wanted to happen, but now she thinks it's rude. She set it up that way!!
Exactly. The entire meal sounds very casual due to the seating, and staggered arrivals, so even the Taco Bell wouldn't have made me bat an eye(except for her awful choice of fast food).
You can't have it both ways OP. If you want to host a formal sit-down dinner, with a planned menu, then you have to facilitate the seating ability to do so. A kitchen table and a breakfast bar is not my idea of a holiday dinner.
I say let it go. As for the seat one of the men should have offered theirs and went to the living room and ate while watching football. The main goal is the get together. As your steaming she's walking around happy full of Taco Bell.
Maybe I'll have Domino's pizza delivered our table at her wedding reception.
Her dad (my husband) is a typical man....oblivious to most things unless he's hit over the head. The girl's mother....I have no idea what kind of manners she has or doesn't have. If she has any, she either didn't pass them on to her daughter or her daughter chooses not to use them.
It will be interesting to see how this wedding plays out!

Next time just use the dining room table with the extra chairs already available before anyone gets there and serve more than Ham since you know not all of your guests like Ham.
All this unnecessary dramatics over two chairs and one bag of Taco Bell.
Sorry I don't get what she did that was so incredibly rude. She's a picky eater so she brought her own food. Personally that wouldn't bother me as a hostess. Is it immature? Sure.
As for the seating situation I don't know why you find it rude that she sat down at the table with the adults. You all decided to eat casually in the kitchen. If you don't have enough seats at the table for the adults, you should have moved into the dining room.
Totally an overreaction OP.

I would make sure she ate some vegetables with the Taco Bell. Then probably lecture her on the complete lack of nutritional value..... as I normally do with kids.
Sounds like the OP is hoping her wedding will go awry. Very adult.

And you might find that she doesn't have enough seats to accommodate you at her wedding.
