올바른 표현

• 婚礼统筹建议，主桌席位要照顾长辈关系，别把有旧怨的亲属安排在一起。(The wedding planner suggested that the main table seating should consider the elders' relationships and not place relatives with old grudges together.)

피해야 할 표현

• 一席话 when you only mean 'a sentence' — 一席话 means a substantial speech or meaningful conversation, implying a proper sitting; use 一句话 for a single sentence; confusing these understates or overstates the weight of what was said
