How to make a wedding seating chart
Start from your confirmed guest list, not your invite list — seating people who haven't RSVP'd yes is how you end up redoing the chart three times. Paste your names above, group couples and families into households, and let auto-arrange produce a first draft in one click. Then do what no algorithm can: move your college friends next to the bar, and your grandmother away from the speakers.
When to make it
Most couples finalize seating two to three weeks before the wedding, after the RSVP deadline. Starting a rough layout earlier is worth it — the moment you know your venue's table count, you know whether Aunt Rosa's table of eight is realistic. Your work here stays on this device between visits, and a free account keeps it permanently.
Frequently asked questions
Is this seating chart tool really free?
Yes. The drag-and-drop canvas, guest list paste, auto-arrange, and keep-apart rules work with no account and no payment — up to 8 tables and 75 guests. A free account lets you save your layout; the paid Plus tier removes the size limits.
Do I need to create an account?
No. The tool works immediately in your browser. Your work is kept on this device between visits; creating a free account transfers it to your wedding workspace so it's saved permanently and works across devices.
How does auto-arrange decide who sits together?
It fills tables without ever exceeding capacity, keeps households together where space allows, and honors your keep-apart rules. If a rule can't be satisfied, it still seats everyone and tells you exactly which compromise it made.
Can I keep two guests away from each other?
Yes — add a keep-apart rule for any pair and both auto-arrange and your manual layout respect it. It's the feature divorced parents were invented for.
How many guests fit at each table?
A 6-foot round typically seats 8–10, a 5-foot round 6–8, and an 8-foot banquet table 8–10. The tool tracks per-table capacity live as you drag guests, so you always see open seats at a glance.
