How to make a wedding seating chart

Seat Maker keeps the seating process simple: build the room, add guests, place people, lock the important seats, and share the finished chart.

Step 1

Set up your reception tables

Add round, square, or rectangular tables and label them so your chart matches the room your venue is setting.

Step 2

Add your guest list

Bring in names quickly, then group family members, friends, and wedding-party guests before you start seating.

Step 3

Place guests at tables

Drag guests into seats, keep the right people together, and make changes as RSVPs or family requests shift.

Step 4

Lock VIP seats

Hold places for parents, the wedding party, hosts, and honored guests so they do not move by mistake.

Step 5

Share the final plan

Send a clear seating chart to your venue, coordinator, or helpers so everyone knows where guests belong.
