From guest list to finished seating chart

Every wedding seating chart starts with the room itself. The video shows how to set the size of your reception or ceremony space and add round, rectangular or curved tables until the layout matches your real venue — no design skills needed.

Next comes the guest list. Add guests one by one or import your existing list, then drag and drop each person to a seat. Meal preferences, allergies and special requirements are stored right on the seat, so your caterer and venue always know exactly who is who.

When the chart is ready, share it online with your partner, wedding planner or venue, or print it out and export the file for the big day. The seating chart tool is free and works right in your browser — you can repeat every step from the video in your own wedding project right now.
