How to make a wedding seating chart
- Paste your guest list. One name per line, straight from your spreadsheet or RSVP list. Add a group after a comma to keep families together.
- Add your tables. Set how many seats each table has. Full tables are highlighted so you never overbook.
- Seat your guests. Drag a name onto a table, or click the name and then the table. Drag a seated guest to move them.
- Print. You get a floor plan of the room, a table-by-table chart and an alphabetical “find your seat” list for the entrance. Save it all as a PDF from the print window.
Seating tips that avoid drama
- Start with the head table and closest family — everyone else is easier to place after that.
- Seat people with someone they already know: college friends, coworkers, cousins.
- Quietly separate people who don't get along — different tables beat opposite ends of the same one.
- Put older guests away from the speakers and close to restrooms and the exit.
Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes. You can plan a small event for free. Pro removes the table limit and the watermark, and adds one-click auto-seating and spreadsheet export. It's a single one-time payment, not a subscription.
Is my guest list private?
Yes. Everything stays in your own browser. Nothing is uploaded and there's no account. Use “Save file” to keep a backup or move it to another computer.
Does it work for other events?
Yes. It works for corporate dinners, galas, bar and bat mitzvahs, quinceañeras, birthday parties and anniversaries — any event with tables.
