We will be traveling with another family and would like to sit together. What is the largest table size you have seen? If we can't get a 12 top then we will ask for tables side by side, and put all the kids at the kid table. :-)

It's been a while, but this was the center table in Royal Court when we first cruised on her. Ten seats, they might be able to fit 12 there, but, IMO, that big a table is an issue with having any meaningful conversations. You basically wind up just talking to the two people on either side of you.

As I recall, on our last cruise on the Fantasy last year, there were two large groups of guests. They had put 2 tables together to seat the group. I’m guessing that there were 10-12 people seated at the table.
 
Yes! We cruised on the Fantasy on January 5th with 4 connected reservations and got to sit together at a long table. There were 12 of us in total. We made sure all our reservations were connected and they got us one big table.
 

If you are unable to get a single table please consider before putting the children at their own table. No matter how well behaved they may be, when they hang out with extended family / friends, they may have a great time and their noise level might impede on others around them.
 
We typically travel in a party of 17 - 25 people. We never all fit at one table, but they place us all together, usually at one larger table and then a second smaller table right near the larger table. The kids sit at the smaller table and love having their own space. However, with 12 in your group, I would think they can get you all together at one table (made up of multiple tables placed together). I just can't recall the exact numbers from our cruises as to how many we had at the larger table; for some reason 14 is sticking out in my mind, but that could be incorrect.
 
Make sure to link your reservations in the app and then you will be seated together at either one big table or two right next to each other. We were a party of four and next to us every night was a party of 10.
 
Several years ago we cruised with 18 and they pulled several tables together to seat us all together.
 
We have had 12, 11, and 12 over the last few years - no issues sitting together.
 
Back in 2022 we cruised with friends who were a party of 10 in 5 rooms that were all booked together at one time through Disney.
My wife and I were asked if we would like to go when they were doing the booking for their cruise, however due to certain circumstances at that time we were unable to go. Fast forward a few months, circumstances changed and we were now able to go.
So, my wife and I, a party of 2 in 1 room that booked at that later date. We asked our travel agent to find out if we could all sit together at their dinner table for a total of 12 adults.

She asked if we could get their reservation number and would call Disney Cruise line to see if she could make the arrangements for us to all sit together, and she was able to do so.

This was for the second dinner seating and at the time the ship was not sold out so I am not sure how much of a difference that makes.
 
I typically go with large groups (10-20 people), and it's never been a problem to have everyone sit together
 
Good to know. We are a party of 12 plus a high chair September

I totally agree. We weren't going to have them alone. We were joking about who will have kid table duty.

We were seated next to a large table of adults and kids; it was the adults, especially one woman who were the loud ones. The kids were well behaved in this case.
