How to Create a Wedding Seating Chart

Plan your perfect wedding reception with our step-by-step guide to creating a seating chart that keeps everyone happy and your event running smoothly.

Start with VIPs and family, group by relationships, use seating rules for sensitive dynamics, balance tables, and keep a backup plan—Seatuationship helps you iterate as RSVPs change.

Set who should sit together—or keep apart

Seatuationship captures who belongs at the same table, who should not share one, and groups you want to keep whole—so manual placement and smart seating follow the same constraints.

Defining seating rules for together and apart preferences.

Custom meal choices on the guest list

For plated receptions and dinners, add your own entrée labels (beyond the built-in defaults), then assign each guest’s meal in table view—so counts stay accurate for your caterer, venue, and place cards.
