Should I purchase train tickets in advance?

I need to purchase train tickets for 6 people for travel from Munich to Venice. The Bahn website only lets you purchase 5 tickets at a time. I could purchase seats using 2 orders, however I am concerned that our seat reservations would not be together. Can I wait until we get to London to purchase our tickets (about a week in advance) or would I be taking a chance in that seats would no longer be available - or we wouldn't be seated together anyway. If I do need to purchase them now, what is the best way to go about doing it.

Janice, call DB rail. It would be worth the cost of the call to speak to someone and arrange so that your party can sit togther. Or, at least be as together as can be.
